Do you have an external display which you can hook up? How about a bootable external HD?

Using both you should new able to isolate out if the internal display or the HD (OS) is damaged.

If neither one gets you anything different you'll likely need to open the system to make a thorough inspection for damage (moisture and/or burnt components).
