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.
有点仓促
朋友们，看看，不take things seriously的人是多么可恶，简直想血压不上来都难。毁灭吧真的。/重点说说表姐，她已经很久没有打动我的角色了，但这次这个角色我意外觉得很可爱。
从故事上来说挺喜欢的，ed也很好听🥺但是还是会觉得托马老师ooc！更像个独立故事……
ps：每次看到末日打砸抢片段，我都在问我们自己何时能拍出真正的《一座城池》。
科幻硬是拍成了喜剧，很好奇怎么邀请到这么多明星来当配角的。
數碼和疫情時代的諷刺喜劇，著實很有時效性。群星的表演自然信手拈來，各種吐槽也兩點頻出。到頭來顯得輕浮了，骨子裏的悲哀和無奈倒是很實在。
黑得不错。但善于自嘲并不能使人类更智慧，这是两码事。
就 撞击一炸和最后新家园人间乐园那幕挺好看的。前面的各种议题表达还是老套。
結尾可以和wall e無縫銜接了~ 不敢相信it‘s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism竟然沒有被納入台詞？？ 劇本完全就是capitalist realism+society of the spectacle +一些post covid apocalypse焦慮/ 看到小李子飾演的是一位天文學教授我就知道這你媽是一部沒羞沒臊的喜劇 片中用到的小彩蛋是都沒安什麼好心 最終也是a critique of capitalism that descends into a parody of critique
哈哈哈 早知道这么快就出了剧场版我就不着急把漫画补完了 剧情完全一致 原著里没有出现的两个同学也是完全没派上用场
好猛。卡士猛、讽刺猛。不了解美國政治、經濟、娛樂、社會，看不太懂吧？
伦太郎爹观念也太奇葩了，伦太郎那简直太好了，贤人那看不明白，托马那到还行，不过反派打不过反派去打正派，太吊胃口了，大结局还有一些坑没填，
我们都身处这样的荒诞之中，为什么会这样？人类的自我幻想太大，以至于看不见幻觉之外的事物。此外，权力意志玩弄一切，也将会毁灭自身。讽刺的点太多了，看到了深深的虚无感，疫情后的终生相。
为母校加成多一星，“烂学校”的小李子大表姐发现了世界末日的可能，但是从上到下资本和分化的人民让大家觉得白左眼中这种美国着实可笑。怎么说呢，既反个人英雄主义又陷入了个人英雄主义，嘛，黑色喜剧就不要纠结了，只是结局小李子确实改变了自己在大数据下算出的结局，然后迎来毁灭，这让我感到欣喜。
真的是笑不出来的无奈。
片头贱兮兮的字幕一出现我就直接心怀偏见想打五颗星了/比2012那种严肃刻板的大片讨人喜欢多了/梅姨和凯特大魔王都好赞
哦豁，MAGA再一次被飞龙骑脸了，你们那么多会biubiubiu的，就没一个能正儿八经拍部电影出来反唇相讥一下吗，人才都去哪了！
最后看着托马老师坐在长椅上，在顶峰看着光芒中的城市，果然，这个故事结束了啊。
一分给我的超人，托马老师
荒诞吗？看看这个世界；幽默吗？看到最后心里只有悲凉。“不要抬头”不一定是强制式的命令，也有可能是一种潜移默化的影响。
