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 andor 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. 谍战迷汽车影院无广告在线云点播亨达影视悠久影视，电视剧、谍战剧、电影、动画片又名正版高清好看的电影,电视剧大全,经典动漫在线观看无删减。360电影频道免费看我们致力为所有影视迷们提供最新最好看的影视作品。谍战迷，各种美剧,港剧、泰剧、台剧是影视爱好者们最好选择！传奇影院

可惜这也导致本片情节戏剧性不强，略显平淡
看得到命运，看不透人心
看了剪辑，情谊真挚啊。终于把正片看完了。一部公路片，却表现了很多社会的很多方面：黑心的包工头，“假仗义”的劫匪，小旅馆的偷盗，丧葬文化，理发女郎的善心，三峡移民...配乐我个人觉得非常美妙，中途出现了几次轻快的音乐，来表达心情的愉悦。苦中作乐，用轮胎装尸。最动情一幕：两人躺在坑中，看着天空，什么也不想，才明白活着本身的美好。这种情感确实有体会到过，抛开所有的压力，这种感受就尤为强烈。高中自习课上写过一次观云有感，情感与此类似。落叶归根，最后居然是在宜昌，当年修三峡大坝，重庆水位上涨，导致重庆移民。巧合巧在，恰好昨日宜昌大雨，水位上涨，真是巧。
主题上也算是紧随当下了，演绎了某一著名历史事件的现代版（这点在访谈和影片中都有直接体现），可惜节奏掌握不好，使影片显得有些不伦不类
