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.
在方舱的我也许需要这样简单但暖暖的故事
可能看的时候并没有太投入，错过了很多细节。看到最后一幕，突然来了兴致。改日二刷好了。
妹妹说话那段还是感动到了的
我就喜欢看百合，可是最后我怎么没看懂，女主是双性恋吧
直面自己内心的恐惧，大胆抗争，就可以打败外界的魔兽。魔兽赖以生存的是人心中的恐惧，所以，消除自己的恐惧激发出自己的最大潜能，就可以打败魔兽！
因为被推荐说是百合片才去看的，看完只感觉浪费两小时，什么鬼啊，百合片里还沾男人？？？我真服了
女主好坏啊！为了抢男人去睡病娇女主！病娇女主也好渣！有男朋友了还跟女主睡！男主好丑！！而且看不出来有什么优点值得两个人去喜欢的，尤其是女主还是保送的优等生…虽然男主考上东京的大学，但是东京没有专科吗🧐
宁静的让人觉得美好，色彩细腻美丽，也许一些平凡的小日子相加才是构成人美好生活的组合！
山田杏奈是惊喜，终于有一个可以演出不做作的扭曲的若手女优了。即若对于爱是空心的同类相吸，美雪是爱可以睡着的实体。
山田杏奈把一个任性强势腹黑心机的小白兔少女形象演活了，三人的外形和心理其实可以属于同一个或者任何一个普通高中生，或乖戾或自卑或远离集体，那些反复的情绪捉摸不透的心思，渴望被理解被爱，脱离原生家庭的束缚等等都在三人中体现。开头和结尾的配乐好听！一些场景设置和节奏很像动漫，女二声音也像声优太温柔了
虽然女主很腹黑，女二很软弱，但最后的信还是kdl
为什么要去睡暗恋的人的女朋友
真实细腻，好久没看几乎没有bgm的电影了，结尾挺好但我不喜欢
有点玄幻片的感觉，哈哈哈哈，真是出乎意料啊。治愈片得以为是夏目友人帐，但是又有很大差别。
就是女主就是有点太任性了哈哈，但是直球又有些可爱😄😄😄
病娇与腹黑相遇 男主显得可有可无
起初捕捉到了民間故事的多義性：女人可能並不是不貪心，只是害怕
还有一个就是对于家人的理解，后面强调了日结作为继承人的存在，和前面铺垫的一家人情绪有点冲突，让我咯噔一下。
在方舱的我也许需要这样简单但暖暖的故事
多年没看过类似的无法预料到展开的青春校园电影。电影中段那场对话如无声中的惊雷，当是时我懵逼的表情与小爱一模一样，导演贴心的给的一段恰到好处的沉默都无法抚平我内心的汹涌。谁能预料的这样的豆瓣简介竟然会有那样的展开啊！！！
