This early 70's giallo by Umberto Lenzi is certainly among the best in his filmography and also in the whole genre. Personally I think Lenzi's best films are the funny cartoon-turned-film Kriminal, the stylish giallo Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, the explosive Napoli violenta and this. In the eighties he did plenty of film trash in form of Eaten Alive, Hitcher in the Dark or Black Demons, all of which are ripping something off and/or very dull and slow moving. Knife of Ice came when the giallo boom was at its hottest and the result is convincing.
Technically the film is superb, containing great cinematography in the beginning when we learn about the main character's trauma towards trains. From this point on, Lenzi shows us his ability to benefit the widescreen and, for example, the bicycle ride near the forest is genuinely beautiful! This scene also shows Lenzi's ability to build suspense, very slowly but meaningfully. After all, there aren't so many murders in the whole film, only the suspense circulating around the murderer's identity.
One suspect is a devil worshipper which brings new aspects to the mystery. Since the final scene takes place in a church, one can wonder if Lenzi wanted to comment on something, maybe the hypocritical morale of church and superstition. The main character (Carrol Baker) is mute which demands a lot from her face and eyes. The actress works very well, giving us a believable performance circulating around the emotions of fear and mental pain. The other actors are good, too. The finally, however, may not give too positive a sight about female sex since they all are expressed rather negatively in the film, one way or another. Still this is easily among the most noteworthy in the genre, not as bloody as the Argento films, for example, but equally suspenseful and visually also interesting.
故事比较平淡，但是自由的思想让人羡慕，父权的专制和医院的伪善变得无足轻重
女主一脸萝莉的样子，可真的是...深藏不露...
电影的前5/3比较烂俗，而且有一些会让你想急速吐槽的点，但是请忍住！后半个小时急风暴雨般的反转绝对能回本。诚然，当风平浪静之后，细细回想这个故事，与其说是惊悚片更像一个都市寓言和对当今环境的讽刺，再佐以一些情色场景的点缀让你不要太早退出。
前面一个小时觉得女主好讨厌，后面的反转其实有点俗，但结局我还蛮喜欢的
前半部还可以，摄影佳。。后半部这剧情简直太拉跨了。。。比爱情短片还拉跨。。。
虽然觉得不要反转可能会更好，但是这个反转还挺……适度的。
反转太多太过，逻辑是硬伤。导演不那么用力就好了，太用力反而拍成了爆米花电影。
这反转把我给转晕了，女主那一脱，让我想起了《权游》里龙妈的第一脱。
虽然但是，女主角的身材好的犯规！加一星！节奏方面，前面有点拖沓，后半程开始劲爆死人反转。
后半段有点崩了。每次看这种偷窥题材的电影总是让我反复确认希区柯克的《后窗》是多么牛逼。
2021年了，讲的是上世纪的惨事，以为能有什么新意，却还是没能超越时代。护士长说她自由了，所以不跟女主一起逃，我真的惊掉下巴。请问她哪里自由了呢？精神上？还是身体上？导演哪里来的自信让护士长自觉自愿被囚禁呀？还有医院里所有的女人，都没有被解放。双女主的暧昧，闹着玩似的。整个电影都浮于表面，你拍不出来反抗就别拍了，一女导演，拍qj镜头倒是挺带劲儿的，真无语哈。
估计是对希区柯克的电影拉片拉了500个小时拍出来的
说实话我也一直想买个望远镜，就是没找到像女主这样的姑娘成为观测对象。
所以不要擅自进入别人的生活，不要自以为是，认清自己的渺小，渺小与渺小之间无须互相卷入。
要是后面20分钟没有我给四星，真应该在画展直接结束
Gaze back？一些镜头语言有点意思，喜欢女主的大小眼。
3.5。倾向于是辩证有神论者信仰虔诚与否的宗教片。被“上帝抛弃的人”所带来的见鬼魂设定是向一神论者发出的嘲讽，也是对未被意识形态全权灌输洗脑的教徒的一次信仰试炼。从这个角度来看，护士长的几次主观选择才是戏中表达核心所在。
疯？社会上谁是疯的可说不定，但真不是这些女人。 梅拉妮看着老了挺多，另个女主实在是很漂亮，俩人都很法式的瘦。看完了也没注意到蕾雅赛杜 1195
大房，大窗，做爱不拉帘；
