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.
看不懂选角为什么要选Owen Wilson欸，真的不适合这个角色。以及那撅着的嘴，和干涩到一直眨巴的眼睛，实在难以忍受。
5.0 / 煽动性很强。可是到头来导致电影变成了那种低级红高级黑，比原版倒退不少。如何把种族议题和类型元素恰到好处地结合，从导演的《逃出绝命镇》《我们》，再到参与编剧的这部《糖果人》，乔丹 · 皮尔越发不懂得节制了。
天后大明星：我决定抽一名现场观众和我原地结婚，到底是谁这么幸运呢？剧情平淡而俗套，这戏的亮点可能就是看人吧，而且两名歌手在现实世界也是真的歌手，有点平行时空里的明星爱情那种意思。
好久没看过这么难看的电影了，换个男主可能有三星。
老版够惊悚，新作只凌乱。
这个美国都市传说有点寡淡。相比另一经典都市传说的瘦长鬼影可差太多了
俗套到甚至没有跌宕起伏，但也许现在的生活就需要一点俗套。（结尾的爱情群像更为感人）
节奏真的垃圾的一塌糊涂。
披着恐怖外衣的zzzq电影，就四个字，没劲透了
7分，虽然剧情有些过于天真，但凯特和查理彼此了解的过程还是挺有意思，里面的歌也都挺不错。虽然彼此的生活有着天壤之别，但也正是因为这样的差异让凯特能从中体会普通人生活的淳朴，也让查理能从中放开自己的拘束。凯特说的话还是很有道理，如果我们总是回头留念，很容易重蹈覆辙，做出完全不同的决定虽然看似疯狂，但说不定能走出一条更有希望的路。
比想象中好看一些，但后半截实在太没劲了，以后这种剧，要是狗血就狗血的极致一点好吗，这种一瓶子不满半瓶子瞎晃荡的，真的没啥意思
这是老版的续集吧，种族问题与旧日创伤，新人女导演在镜头呈现上有一种别样的特点，开篇的颠倒镜头以及全片无处不在的对镜面的利用。几处糖果人利用镜面杀人的效果加分很多，那个从厕所隔间内缓慢推到掉落在地的化妆镜镜面呈现杀人场景的镜头好绝，舞台布景的霓虹配色也是亮眼，结尾略密恐
作为一部恐怖片肯定是不合格的，全片杀人桥段几乎一模一样，叙事节奏很差，但它沿用旧版的设定之余又加入了来自我们这个时代的解读，在某种程度上还是挺有意义的，只是表达得比较拙劣。蛮喜欢将糖果人视为精神象征这一概念，比一个具象更为深刻。配乐和摄影加分，开头的仰视镜头和倒转的logo有创意，或许是暗示了镜面空间
这看来真是，早熟啊！
不管那么多，当下这个时候是需要这样的电影来调解一下心情
大明星×普普通通的数学老师单亲爸爸。主线剧情没什么特别。舞台表演好看，歌也不错
本片还有许多关于米国种族问题的隐喻，稍微留意和动点脑子就能发现，也难怪本片在米国广受影评人好评。
2022年了这样的剧情未免太老套，男主后段想分手也有点突兀，但是歌曲是真的好听洗脑
这跟糖果人有毛线关系？在当今极端政治正确大行其道的今天，只要见到个黑色皮肤的都是好的、只要是白色都是坏的，全片恨不得连黑猫都是受白猫压迫充满愤恨的正义使者，就好比你能想象孟买猫被布偶猫奴役几百年吗？这个电影完全歪曲了原作和初版糖果人的意义，沦为政治博弈的一片羽毛和黑人自high的zw电影，自high就自high吧，还非要蹭老IP和篡改经典，为了黑命贵脸腚都不要，顺便黑一把黄种人，恶心。
rarbg，环球影业出品，洛佩兹一把年纪了还在演这种老套的歌舞爱情片，而且最主要的是她和欧文威尔逊这个一把年纪的谐星一点都不搭好吗，搞不懂为啥现在好莱坞喜欢安排这种反差情侣，或许因为反差萌？
