Blu-ray Review – Blind Faith

F2

1989's "Blind Faith" has the initial appearance of an erotic thriller from the era, watching a cop and his partner engage in rough sex after dabbling in drugs, putting on a display of disease that's meant to disturb and titillate. And then writer/director Dean Wilson moves away from such atmosphere, replacing exploitation interests with a psychology game, and a talky one at that. "Blind Faith" is basically a filmed play, with Wilson using his run time to study the levels of irritability and monologuing skills of the characters, who are dealing with murder, manipulation, and intimidation, but the feature would rather remain static. The helmer is attempting to create something uneasy with unsavory turns of plot, but he doesn't earn viewer interest with this glacial examination of police interrogation.
