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.
这故事老套和无聊到我怀疑投资方在洗钱…这哪里是法律和正义的胜利，分明是告诉我们，只有钱才能打败权，没钱没权就等着背锅顶罪吧
漫画都不敢这么画吧？看得我一愣一愣的，继续没节操。
终于完结了……太不容易了，请一定真的完结……
这上来就跳反的片不多呀，律师还能用虚假证物引导案件走向，反派既然手眼通天，为嘛不把这律师做了呢，反正都做了很多人
忘记喝孟婆汤的下场。
致敬了《杀死比尔》等经典作品。没有想到居然是三池崇史的作品。不血腥不暴力但是重口味。
还真是有点悬疑。就在跟随主角一起来破案。不，不是破案，是把正义公之于众。尽到律师的职责。加班后把它看完了。我也很尽职，今天加班去管村小学把操场和花池边粉刷完了。致敬为社会作出贡献的人们。加油！奋斗！
这个系列第一集比较好看，后面全裸日常化，就没啥感觉了。本来只是喜剧黑道片，最后直接整魔幻了
和神经病一样跑了一个半小时什么都没解决赔了命一起轮回吧
打五星只因虽然九年过去了，到依然是原汁原味儿，终结篇没有因为演员变老了而变一点儿味儿。九年前的斗真颜值巅峰，那时自己觉得自己也还是年轻人，九年过去了，斗真的脸不再那么精致，自己也觉得自己是个中年人了。
一法师就拿着金刚杵和恶灵贴身肉搏😅（听掉地上的声，杵还是空心的）
也太羞耻了～（捂脸看，人帅就是什么颜艺都hold得住！
男主拿着一把锥子就莽进了鬼屋，结果落了个死都不知道什么时候死的，也是醉了。容嬷嬷式驱魔，涂鸦式封印，黑胶手套以及人格分裂猛鬼简直我了个去~
值得一看的片子！有被吓到，看完一起复盘了一遍逻辑，到时蛮有意思的，中间有漏洞和难以解释点，拍的略显粗糙但是值得分析
无语，时空错乱的封闭鬼屋……地缚灵qwq 也没有起源的前因后果……还可以其实～～韩国恐怖还挺多样～～这什么神经病贵鬼 无语死了
个人觉得还是不错的，但这部电影老让我想起同为韩国恐怖电影的《两个月亮》，套路有些类似
看着有点像以前的《两个月亮》，男主角不知道自己已经死了，而且还有时空交错。
哇我上一次看到这么离谱的电影可能还是赤道吧！鲍起静上一秒还对方中信恨得咬牙切齿下一秒就对乖孙说“你一定要听他话他能救你命”；方中信去竞选办公室找曾志威如入无人之境，健康码都没扫保安就不知道拦一下吗；陈家乐坚持了一小时的正义至上的法律信念在一小时过几分的时候突然变成要接受认罪协议；谭耀文仅凭方中信一个假设问题就能一针见血给出关键建议，这阅读理解能力不拿个高考语文状元说不过去吧；一个张松枝就能只手遮天顶得上一个三合会，曾家这么厉害为啥不直接把三叔推海里呀！讲真，真是糟蹋了演员表里的老人家们！
三池和宫九郎玩的海阔天空～黑社会真是日本娱乐创作不可替代的乌托邦呀～
看到5.6分的评价，差点就不想点进去了。不过其实还挺好看的，剧情老套，但其实也隐射了一些人治和法治的问题
