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.
动作指导应该没少看导火线吧，好多熟悉的动作设计，哈哈。以网大的标准来说，动作戏是不错的，谢苗这么好的底子，一直演网大实在有点儿可惜了。
其实还挺好看的，就是反派一个是衣云鹤屌丝男士的印象太深，一个胖子不够坏，戴眼镜的应该变态，但是不够。谢苗老了有点像刘奕君，身手还不错，期待上院线吧。
绝对合格的网大水平，基本就是借鉴了 导火线 的套路，打斗挺真实的，谢苗的块儿还差点儿，缺少点信服力～～～
动作戏，氛围还是不错的。网大有质感的，节奏还可以。
打得干脆利落颇有新意，给六分的是有啥成见么
过年在家看了一圈网大，就这部还算给力，4星支持下谢苗
写实派动作电影在大陆的新代表，谢苗，值得期待。
很久没看到内地拍这种动作警匪戏了 故事虽然单一了点 但是演技基本在线 节奏也不拖 上不了院线 定位网大的投资 可以算精了
医院打成那个样儿了门口警察是聋哑人？费解。男主真得很韩星啊…男二反派老三虽然有点装b但还是不错的。
剧情很简单，就是三兄弟（类似于地痞流氓，不过有文化的那种）想要凭借“武力”威胁一些当地的有钱人参与自己的赌博生意，收取服务费...我觉得吧，多此一举，既然都有把柄，直接勒索不更省事也更安全？何必那么麻烦呢，还杀人...
谢苗在我这就是优质功夫片的保障，一连看几部片看下来，还真就没失望过。本片剧情简单，节奏紧张，时长还特别ok。虽然打戏相较他的古装片要逊色些，却也做到了拳拳到肉，打击感十足，整体三星绰绰有余。
虽然看起来有点像甄子丹的导火线的感觉，但现在华语电影里能看到拳拳到肉，让人感觉到肾上腺素飙升的动作片已经非常难得了，且看其珍惜吧。
卧槽！这片子可以啊！节奏快，剧本没啥槽点，还有升华，打斗精彩，演技也都写实，卧槽，真不错。
两分的片子，谢苗打戏加一分，他的打戏确实有味道，比那些花拳绣腿的流量明星强太多。
可能受制于制作成本的原因，故事特别简单，但是很完整。
感觉还算可以，虽然明显属于小制作电影，但是，麻雀虽小五脏俱全，该有的，都给配上了。
及格的动作片，真的很少见到拳拳到肉的动作片了。剧情简洁不啰嗦，人员不降智。不过一开始就能猜出肖老三没去上学。冲着不去院线骗钱，多给一星
如果龙叔是国际警察在国际大都市破获国际大案的警察故事，那谢苗就是县城警察在县城打击县城无赖流氓的警察故事。故事细节很真实，非常接地气。支持一下。
粗糙，俗套，但是毕竟是一群操着东北话的中国人的故事，最喜欢老陶这个人物，最后的入警誓词也很有感觉。
谢老师疯狂接戏的情况下，终于拍了一部好看的电影了！加一星鼓励一下！
