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.
上帝被驱逐 最后恶魔一句话显得正义感爆棚
...
歲末寒冬爆米花佳片，回溫5度就會覺得無聊老套拖拉沒靈魂。
我要用撒旦尼克大拳把这个电影的导演无编剧全部咋烂 一分滚蛋
对驱魔电影无抵抗力 片中鬼一惊一乍的倒是有点看疲惫了。
强奸再次得到了美化：“我一直都喜欢你”，“这是发生在我身上最好的事”。
所以说最后那个交易其实是神魔双方互换了下身体？
一开始觉得有点康斯坦丁的意思，后来那鬼的大叫突然的出现，感觉是为了吓人而吓人，驱魔的过程感觉像牧师和鬼在吵架😂谁声大谁说了最后一句谁就赢了似的，最后的结局是亮点了，算有点内涵了。
立意深刻，主角最后面临大义灭亲时选择放弃，功亏一篑，影片讨论了人情与信仰作何选择的问题。
新年不就要看这种甜甜的电影么 男主很hot 我很喜欢
电影正派无数次诸如“我即是上帝”大胆言论，
开场：鬼躺床上滚脏字，驱魔完事滚床单
甜甜蜜蜜简单不费脑挺好的 很喜欢这样的身高差啊 1384
魔鬼的女体不应该无暇清纯的幻觉点么，太丑了这恶神父也下得去嘴？
逆转驱魔（神）的创意值得8分，剧本往圣魔高层下大棋谍战上再靠靠可以冲冲7分，但目前这个肉眼可见没钱的电影最多6分。两场驱魔大战魔女造型应该是妖艳而非恐怖，这样对观众而言“被诱惑”才更有说服力。
强奸再次得到了美化：“我一直都喜欢你”，“这是发生在我身上最好的事”。
恶魔：那也得你先出来～
剧中小物件都很有心，太可爱，每一个都击中。音乐也相当合适。
恶魔在人间行走，上帝仅限于看看动动嘴皮子，真·Father高一尺，恶魔更高一厘米。
本想驱魔，反被驱神。实习神父彼得，尚未结业，在为马嘉丽驱魔过程中犯了淫戒，还生下一女佩朗。十八年后，彼得悉心打理孤儿院，与民众同吃同劳动，积累功德，可还是遭到撒旦的复仇。彼得自知力有不逮，请前辈迈克神父出山。作为前辈不仅没有固步自封，竟还提出了新阵法。并授知在驱魔过程中，要相信自己就是上帝，才能无往不利。环境设定在监狱，只想为佩朗驱魔，结果变成了要驱一群人。场面更像一场丧尸追逃，大家形体课上得不错，基本的关节扭动和狰狞表情符合市场标准。觉得出戏的是，谁嗓门大，谁就能压倒对方。看他们打得这么费劲，想放一首傲气傲笑万重浪。结尾还是比较有新意，撒旦以一场交易，获取接管人间的权力。影片还提供了思路，可以录制忏悔视频给神父，那么网络加密等级够不够就又显得关键。毕竟向世人公开忏悔，做不做得了圣人可难说了
