A crew of blind martial artists attempts a high-stakes bank heist in Manila—no one saw this coming.
BLIND RAGE
They're Kings of Kung Fu. Master Thieves ... And BLIND!
Five friends get together and decide to plan an operation to rob a bank. The main difference between this and other bank-robbing gangs, however, is that all five men are blind.

Programmer's Pick
Only in the grindhouse universe would a bank job be pulled off by a squad of blind martial artists and a magician. Blind Rage spoofs the heist genre with blaxploitation flavor, kung fu moves, and a plot as wild as its premise. High concept, low visibility.
