I might be a little out of touch, but I'm pretty sure "Mischief Night" - if that's even a thing - never involved breaking and entering, stealing car keys and cellphones, disabling cars, cutting landlines, and otherwise shoving large knifes into people's throat.
TIPS for blind people:
Never walk around barefoot - especially if you've dropped glass on the floor.
Keep television volume at low to medium so you can still hear your surroundings.
Don't use headphones to listen to music thereby removing one of your few remaining critical senses.
Keep your cellphone on your person AT ALL TIMES.
Keep your lifesaving asthma inhaler on your person AT ALL TIMES.
There's really no reason to ever keep your blinds open.
Don't go running through an open field at full speed - you're blind!
This is yet another movie where EVERYONE walks around - even when responding to emergencies - with a cell phone that's dead or nearly dead.
Poor Emily is told to "Stay here" literally 4 times (I counted) - once by boyfriend Jimmy and 3 times her Dad. And things still went horribly wrong.
Emily, for what it's worth, has the DUMBEST "smart" phone in the world - because APPARENTLY it can't distinguish the words "home" from "cell" from "Dad" from "911" - arguably the most rudimentary words in its audio file.
And when Jimmy and Emily decide they must leave the house IMMEDIATELY to avoid a potential killer, Jimmy decides he wants to walk down memory lane and paw through sentimental photos. Then he decides it's more urgent to look for bandaids than to get out the house to flee the killer.
And, the idea that after your leg is half amputated by a CHAINSAW, you can simply "hobble around" silently thereafter is quite ludicrous.
All these annoyances aside, the movie was still intriguing and somewhat entertaining to watch. The better of these movies of the genre have the blind girl use her blindness to better clever advantage than here. But it was still a decent thriller.
