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.
作为歌舞片，本片是绝对“好听”的，好听到爆的那种！
大型MV，情感和人物升华靠生拔。大概我太庸俗了，欣赏不了（我也很无奈啊）
Not just another birthday, it's 30/90
相对没那么跌宕起伏的故事，换来的是可以全身心投入到传记所展示的对音乐、对生活毫无保留的热忱中去。音乐很好听，融合得很好，也没有喧宾夺主。有关susan的歌曲绝佳。
九柱集结，阵仗颇有点权游中各族联合对抗异鬼之势。只不过鬼灭的这一场是审判。产屋敷的门下用数字 9。无惨的门生用数字 12，还分为上弦下弦。都是传统文化中的经典数字。
对于歌舞片来说，歌好听，就成功80%了，加上剧情不错，人生短暂，为梦而拼
不跟《爱乐之城》比较就还可，一旦比较就立刻千疮百孔。音乐、调度、编舞（如果有）和剧作人物一样既没有整体感也没有层次感，文本本没有足够丰富的情绪，却要塞入大量的唱段和内心戏，只会显得絮烦甚至有点傻。唯一真正让我喜欢的点是刻画创作焦虑的感觉是对的，但作为内卷时代的“后浪”看他们的焦虑真的难以抑制的有种嫌弃感。大概这位新导演以为引入同性、有色裔再来谈梦想就是跟上了时代，呵呵这不叫创作，这叫他妈的投机取巧！Shame on you！！！
激动的无以复加！这是种狂热的能量！也许也是因为这种能量，摧毁了他除了音乐之外的所有东西…
没有《吉屋出租》乃至百老汇的基础储备，要入戏确实有些障碍，就叙事性来说，根本和《爱乐之城》没法比，确实很难称为电影，又不是音乐剧，某些地方是情景剧的处理手法，总体更接近实景补拍完整的NT live，加菲全程表现高光，感觉比他之前演的电影都要来劲，巨投入，也许这就是舞台艺术的魅力吧。
对应剧版的22~26集。大战之后的调整与训练，加大世界观与承上启下。
重新剪辑版吗，炎柱是不是日之呼的伏笔啊，想看无限列车
tick，tick，梦想？友情？爱情？不管是乔森反复强调的即将到来的30岁，或是感染艾滋深感时日不多的发小，还是女友不断强调的deadline…即将到来的演示会，电费的欠费通知…滴答声在耳边嗡嗡作响——这是一个关于时间的故事。音乐剧的自白，交织着跌跌撞撞的追梦旅途，琐碎的日常，和崩坏边缘的情绪。倒数吧，请求这些糟透的一切都进入倒数吧，爱会来的，梦会实现的，百老汇的会听到你的歌声，你的名字会成为传闻。
4.5/5
4.5太好听太好看了吧，我太好这口了，太爱加菲了
终于发现最后一集无惨裁员的bgm为啥让我产生了微妙的不适，这不就是欧美英雄片的标准bgm吗！宏伟中透出高大上，高大上中透出压抑，妈耶我无语。。
虽然有鬼杀队十个等级的设定，但就用过2次，最初根本没有提到过柱。9柱也就这么聚首过一次而已。话说这几个人要不是主角团队，都已经死了好几次了吧。
对应TV剧22～26集，炭治郎进入鬼杀队总部。
虫柱·蝴蝶忍
太太太纽约了！太太太太好哭了！到现在纽约也是，扔个bagel能砸到仨儿一边端盘子打工一边追求梦想的年轻艺术家们。对应最后Jon的结局，tick，tick可能就是血管瘤的警告
艺术是昂贵的，梦想更是，功能名就之前，需要付出的不仅仅是金钱，还有大量的时间和精力，甚至牺牲与身边人正常相处的模式。也正因为这样，梦想实现的时候，才显得那么美妙。可惜这个世界大多数时候都是庸俗的，你的作品很好，但太过文艺，无法变现，你唯一的办法就是继续下去，不断地写新作品，直到等来被大众接受的那天。Jon是个英年早逝的天才，是悲剧也是幸运，还有多少为艺术付出一生的人在被生活逼到最终绝境的那一刻，依旧在角落里默默无闻，唉。
