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.
拍出了恐怖题材电影最需要的沉浸感，这点就值三颗星，虽然故事一般，属于看完就忘那种。
《欲望号快车》的精神姊妹篇，绝对是经得起时间沉淀的经典之作。柯南伯格拍成这样都没拿金棕榈，金棕榈竟然给了《悲情三角》那样的垃圾群high片。
破烂玩意儿，还是跟二十年前的《感官游戏》一样，弄些丑陋恶心粘乎乎的所谓科技设备，就装科幻片了。归根结底就是在贩卖变态。
一种奇观。被高概念包裹噱头的是对人本身的探讨，或是”超人/非人“与人本身的区别何在。器官被撕扯成为艺术的展现，是对人本身的自反。
悬高转动的镜头+鱼眼推看得令人反胃，尤其是搭配了极其无聊的对话剧情之后。一定要说的话 电影的矫揉造作跟某些行为艺术确实很像了 艺术堕落为对极端刺激的消费。近年多部电影呈现出了这种趋势 是悲哀
群像故事是复杂的，北后有道利益在持续推动。
# 75 Cannes 主竞赛# 两个小时的煎熬，全程没有停的大幅对白不知所云，除了外科手术没有其他了
故事完整性差一些，但是演员演技在线，值得推荐。
服化道特效用心，演员表演到位，剧本也很工整，还有点致敬罗生门，结尾让人心里一暖，更愿意相信整部电影就是盲人口中胡编的故事。
有理由相信柯南伯格的脑回路里也有纹身，不然怎么解释老人家快80岁还能信手拈来地玩body horror？可惜我只看到了sex，没有看到vice，导演对身体和仪器的热衷远远超过对情节的铺陈，因此电影只剩下了一场接一场的手术表演。尽管全体主创对前现代的世界观是坚定的，但一种坐在早餐椅上的如鲠在喉的观感挥之不去。另外，对小K那种气若游丝式的演技真的无福消受。
慎重观看，体验极其糟糕，心理上极其不适……都2022年了柯南伯格还拍这样的片子，你说有深度吧，确实有，但也没深到哪去……
4.5，相较大都会与星图，人物状态明显变得正常许多。相对应的则是对议题更直观的呈现与探讨，偶有高强度的手术段落强化观感，因此成为了柯南伯格寓言性较强的作品。90s概念与10s叙述方式的整合。
柯南伯格的片子类型总被弄错，这哪是恐怖分明是恶心。想象一个有机技术的世界 和人的机器技术相对 更接近星际的虫族（可并没有后者那种混沌的融化状态）核桃有机床里的男人成为了一个树一样的存在，在身上不断长出新的器官，把其摘取手术-新的性交经验（一种开膛破肚式的性感？）作为行为艺术供人观赏。在器官绘图学与生物艺术之间，疼痛的知觉与观感想象成为仅存的真实？这和如今高度依赖无限生产身体疼痛与感官刺激的新自由主义经济有何区别？
I mean...what IS this?...seriously...
既然取这个名字就整点怪谈异志啊，谁想看人心啊！！
网大可以拍到这种程度真的很难得，不露肉，不瞎搞笑，剧情层层叠进，除了结尾复仇那一段太简单其他的很对得起网大了。希望以后的网大也能如此，向奈飞看齐，即使让我花钱我也认。现在目中无人出来，等看口碑
最近两年网大电影的质量越来越好，一出“罗生门”故事，每个版本讲的都还不错！可惜结尾有点故弄玄虚或者强行圆满的意思…
2022年7月13日晚和迪仔一起看完。“山村狐妻”真的是再现了一个离奇民间传说的形成和演化过程。另外数个人讲述故事的数个角度，包含个人私利的考量和择取，镜头摄入的范围与时长，逻辑的先后叠套覆盖，简直就是小说有限视角的示例。人心不足蛇吞象，闭塞空间的愚昧与险恶其实古往今来已经有很多范本了，这样的尝试国内外不算是全新，但至少能比正序叙述要更添恍然大悟的一个结尾。
4- “attractive in a bureaucratic way.” 存在为数不多的能够击穿所有虚假性和建构的“泪涌”时刻（部分得益于演员的表演），不过大部分时候还是在极安全的界域内游转，几无任何“边缘”的暗示。以及，K的气质倒是相当符合本片的应有样貌，她在出场的那一刻就是极不自然、戏谑的，几乎是要自反地宣示强力的解旋---一个完美的卡夫卡式角色。
非常好看！少有的网大里的精品，除了女演员太出戏！
