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.
不出意外的一句话都听不懂就不打分了。舞台感弄得挺唬人，但总觉得像是极简装逼版《300勇士》。
《蜘蛛巢城》比这强太多了
又是一版极具风格化的《麦克白》。与库泽尔版大量的苏格兰实地取景相反，科恩兄这次回归了既表现主义又极简的棚拍美学，表演风格也很大程度上加强了影片的舞台感。但总体来说改编的还是有些太中规中矩了，两位主演异于寻常的“高龄”也并未如预料中的那样带来新的解读，表演最为出彩的反而是饰演女巫的Kathryn Hunter和饰演Ross的Alex Hassell。同时也几乎看不到过往科恩的影子，也许这标志着单飞以后的新阶段？
三个月的不安、忐忑，还有亲情、友情，爱情的漩涡中终于找到了属于自己心里的那种归宿……果然死男人都是靠不住的！顺便说一句我戳好棒！歌曲也好好听！
亲情爱情友情什么都沾点却什么都没有讲好，剧情发展无聊又能预估。唯戳爷和颜值和色调抗住了。
都是给的戳爷的颜 感谢赐给本花痴一个半小时的颜值盛宴～
印度小哥好闷 跟troye没cp感 不如跟姐妹的戏份真情实感
极具默片韵味又不乏视觉想象的黑白影像，原味戏剧的舞台感成了风格实验/返祖的完美道场。
非常美式的青涩的青春期生活，但是剧情好无聊... 分手-恋爱-分手... 感觉戳爷也逐渐没有青春的感觉了，但是色调和拍摄都很beautiful
我真的很喜欢Caleb和Estha进入爱情的种种情节，浪漫而热烈、真诚而自然。
戳在里面的搭配好清新小男生，眼睛好好看！所以这片子就是为了提醒我们不要恋爱脑，男人靠不住吗……前面小糖水还是很甜的，最后竟然无反转
Why, are we rly gon rave abt somethin‘ Orson had already done so well 70 yrs ago? Acting's AWFUL😑WORST MACBETH EVER MADE
不装逼了，真的不在我的评价体系之内，华盛顿表演跟藩篱也没差多少啊
“请把悲伤通过语言发泄出来吧，无言的悲痛会在你心中低语，直到破碎成一片一片。”
四大悲剧的基调在于人物，你会发觉悲惨皆与权利有关！在莎士比亚的幻想中，所创造的神迹应该是与科恩有一些重叠的。换句话说，鄙人自己用形而上的价值观片面感受到在美术中，搭起了一座画等号的桥。首先黑白增加了麦克白与夫人疯狂的欲望扩张，却又好似无论怎样放肆，也都在笼子里表达命中注定，加强了戏剧的样子。另外极简的美术形式，无论户外还是室内，放大内心魔鬼的无处不在。这就是科恩厉害的地方！ 无论在舞台还是影像，把故事中人物内心的假象与思考，变成实体人物，无论魔鬼还是天使，都是虚幻的。自然就达成鄙人心中所说的共识桥梁。也就更贴合一副好似英格玛·伯格曼《第七封印》的样子，把心结做成了人！ 但这一切却只因为它们作为电影的一些关联，而源于戏剧，莎翁的戏，就好似他手中的那支鹅毛笔，远比写出来的文字，癫狂与潇洒太多！
科恩但这回无兄弟，极简但这回无幽默，经典但这回太规矩。
7.6 舞台剧般的对白与戏剧冲突。少了科恩兄弟原来的黑色幽默，保有寓言故事的成分。在光与影、建筑结构的设计上可见用心。但这个老故事没有特别吸引人。
我基本一句台词都没听懂我的天，被吃爆米花的人包围全程不断，中间还睡着一次，醒来就看到麦克白正在扎国王脖子…还有就是Ross这个角色是干啥的没太看懂，救了Banquo的儿子吗？
挺轻松 挺青春的 三个月的恐惧最终换来了一段感情与家人的和解
这部剧作被改编的次数也太多了，科恩+华盛顿也没带来什么惊喜，甚至于过度舞台化的表现方式都显得有些俗套。
