　　影片聚焦在安娜的童年、青春以及成年时期的不同阶段，三个重要的人生时刻，都充满了欲望，同时也诠释了她的一生。

　　A company of friends rises in the funicular to meet unforgettably New Year's Eve on the top of the mountain. The guys are already anticipating how they will cheerfully slide down to the beat of the chimes and explosions of fireworks. But the adventure turns into a real nightmare, when in the midst of the holiday a flimsy trailer gets stuck over the precipice.

　　八个人去参加鸡尾酒会时与伊朗原籍保安一起被困于电梯中。其中包括一个胖子白领，一个帅哥金领带着自己的主播未婚妻，一个孕妇，该大楼的老板和自己的小孙女，一个有幽闭恐惧症的喜剧演员，还有个衣着土气的大妈。在他们焦灼地等待援救时，发现电梯里有个炸弹。

　　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.

　　詹姆斯·卡格尼主演的黑帮电影经典作。他在这部演技光芒四射的代表作之中饰演有严重恋母情结的歹徒柯弟贾勒特，他象神经病一样弃妻子于不顾，到处疯狂做案。警方费了九牛二虎之力围捕他，他则率领手下暴徒躲在深山中跟警方对峙。导演拉乌尔·沃尔什在片中安排了不少气氛十足的暴力动作场面， 但更出色的是对男主角偏执狂的生动刻画。玛格丽特·威彻利的邪恶母亲和弗吉尼亚·梅奥的性格女友亦演出旗鼓相当，结局拍出相当感人的悲剧性。

　　Metal music, wet paint, and family are the passions of Jesse, a struggling painter who lives a happy life with his wife, Astrid, and their preteen daughter, Zooey. And things look even brighter when Jesse and Astrid are able to put in a bid on their dream home - a huge property in rural Texas with a barn big enough for a proper art studio - after the price is driven down due to the home's mysterious past. After the trio moves in, Jesse's work starts taking on a new, considerably darker flavour - and things get even more ominous when Ray, the hulking, clearly unbalanced son of the deceased former owners, appears on the doorstep one night, clutching a red electric guitar and asking to "return home." It soon becomes clear that Ray and Jesse are both being influenced by the same satanic forces, and that Jesse's family won't be safe until they find a way to quiet the Devil himself.

　　1964年Mississippi（密西西比，我的印象中一直不太好，名字都那么怪）的Nioba，一个非常黑暗的夜晚，Eli MacCleary和Caroline夫妇的车子在路上抛了锚，Eli独自前往找救援，留下Caroline在车上，他回来时发现太太倒在路边的树林里，她被强奸了。不久，Caroline怀孕生下儿子Michael。
　　转眼十七年过去了，如今的Michael得了一种怪病，肿瘤压迫脑垂体使他经常发狂，不能自制，还有他那特殊的化学反应机制，这些都被医生认为是遗传病，但Eli和Caroline知道儿子不是他们的，为了找到真正的原因，他们又回到那个他们不愿提起的地方——Nioba，也从此揭开一个陈年的惊世奇案（或许叫做“奇冤”吧！）。原来，强奸Caroline的是Billy Connors，他与另一名在当地臭名昭著的Lionel Curwin的妻子通奸，被Lionel所在地窖里，饿极之下已失去理智，但Lionel有时会从表兄弟那里拿一些人的尸体回来喂他。后来，Lionel却不知被什么给撕碎吃掉了一部分，房子也给烧了，并成了墓地。知情的只有家族里的少数几人。在那个夜晚，Billy把仇恨种在了Caroline的身上。如今的Michael夜晚会四处寻找当年与Lionel有关的人，并把他们杀了，这种仇恨太可怕了·，一切已经不受控制……。
　　影评：
　　一部精神病和基因变异的的电影，故事讲得比较好，从科学理论上好像有点依据，只是时间上讲不过去。因为背景在密西西比的沼泽，使影片的气氛比较阴暗，但娱乐元素很丰富。电影里一直留有一个疑团到最后才揭晓，那就是Connors和Curwin家的那段仇恨的原因，可惜被我不小心在剧情里透露了出来。Ronny Cox曾在我们熟悉的《铁甲威龙》里饰演反面角色。总的来说，题材上是一部比较成功的B级制作电影。信鬼神的可认为是Michael被附了身，信科学的则......。

　　The dead are coming back to life outside the isolated Mi'gMaq reserve of Red Crow, except for its Indigenous inhabitants who are strangely immune to the zombie plague.
