Download Best Movies

If you’re in the mood for a good old fashioned eighties action flick and you’ve already seen everything with Arnold and Stallone a million times over, give Blind Fury a chance. They call Rutger Hauer the European Paul Newman, but Christopher Walken is probably a more accurate comparison. Both actors are capable of that icy coolness, where they can say sinister things that sound friendly and friendly things that sound sinister. Hauer brings that quality to his heroic role in Blind Fury, and the result is definitely one of our must see movie downloads of the eighties, especially if you’re talking about cool, funny action flicks.

The story follows Hauer as a Vietnam War veteran who was abandoned overseas by his old war buddy. He wound up being taken in by a South Vietnamese village, where he was taught how to defend himself with a samurai sword, in that he could no longer reasonably operate a firearm. He returns to the United States with sword in hand to find the person who left him behind in Vietnam. Interestingly, he’s not out for revenge, he’s out to forgive his old friend and make things right between the two of them.

Along the way, Hauer adopts his old friend’s son for the week, taking him from Miami, Florida to Las Vegas, Nevada in an attempt to reunite the boy with his father. He gets in more than enough fights on their quest across the country, making for some really inventive, cool stuff that utilizes the lead character’s blindness as a great angle for interesting fights.

Hauer really has to compete for the audience’s attention alongside the rest of the cast, who are all priceless. Slag is really a big part of what makes the cast so funny. Slag, played by Randall Tex Cobb, is one of the all time funniest eighties badguys. The way he meets his come uppance is really fitting and will leave you with a smile on your face.

The movie really goes deeper than just the laughs and the action, dealing with themes of abandonment and friendship, going a lot deeper than you expect.

Ninja movie legend Sho Kosugi makes a great cameo towards the end as the hired sword the badguy sics on Hauer. Kosugi has been a legend in Asia for years but has rarely been more than a cult favorite in the US, so it’s always cool to see him in a movie, even if he’s reduced to playing little more than hired baddies. But regardless, he and Hauer have one of the movie’s best scenes together.

You’ll probably love the two redneck brothers who are constantly nagging each other and fighting, providing the real comedic drive of the movie. Sort of like throwing Abbot and Costello into the middle of an action flick.

It really is too bad that they don’t really make movies like this anymore, but we can at least enjoy these movies with movie downloads. It’s not one of the most well known of the eighties action flicks, but it’s really one of the very best of the era. Funny, exciting, imaginative and fun.
