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.
不少故事的构思还挺惊艳，奈何因为单个故事时间有限，都不了了之，草草收场。或者说有限的时间并非借口，即便短小，也能精悍，如果处理得更走心，完全可以获得更高的分数。Ps：话说导演是按青春偶像剧挑的演员？颜值还真都很在线，演技也不是很尬，有点浪费了，稍显可惜。
3.0/中规中矩 一惊一乍 大杂烩 不过还不错

一般吧，十个小故事，也没什么吓人，也没什么深度。寄生虫和闺蜜招魂的故事还可以。
第一次看柬埔寨片，算是惊喜，柬埔寨年轻人梦想的追求与破灭，画面把控很稳，加上知道柬埔寨的电影史之后，更觉得白色大厦能在他们影史上占有重要的里程碑，期待导演的下一部作品。
电影对话现实，这位柬埔寨青年导演的白色大厦显然没有科长的汾阳小镇那样的后劲，但我相信这部电影于我所产生的触动一定数倍甚至数十倍的存在于柬埔寨本土青年人身上。
大部分只是交待一个粗糙的情境而已，效果还是一惊一乍式的，没有情感，没有意义。因为是短片集，竟然也就看完了
撞死人的肇事逃逸司机在隧道被鬼寻仇
1，隧道：过马路要左右看，没事不上汽车道；2，红衣女：与人为善，和同学和睦相处；3，齿虫：遇到疑难杂症，千万别盲目就上手；4，招魂：学生就好好学习，没事别玩招魂；5，噪音：发现反常，立马报警；6，衣柜：在自家里遇上坏人，一定要补刀，剁脑袋；7，冥婚：身在职场，一帆风顺要小心；8，镜中女人：放松心态，从容面对世上的一切；9，人模：遇到往人多地方跑；10：密室：穷乡僻壤，又有人失踪，还做孤勇者，不是找死是什么？
很明显的作者电影，导演把自己的经历融入电影画面的角角落落，把氛围表达出来了。本来以为分为三大段是要表达三种不同的情绪或主题，但其实无非就是自己梦想的无力，贫穷和社会精神世界的崩塌罢了，反而感觉第二三大段粘在一起了，因此觉得分成三个部分没有很大的必要，但情绪堆叠起来的效果倒是大大给了我惊喜。剧作方面：对于第一大段的剧情属实觉得和后文没有什么关系，而且并没有主要刻划主角，反而是戴面具的c力了一些。剧情上面不出意料的简单又繁琐，细小的事件以小见大，渐渐就反应出了柬埔寨的社会环境，有导演个人的思想和态度在里面，欣赏导演的台词功力。对于导演，有几个隐喻镜头和幻想镜头安排的很有感觉，对于电影时间空间的运用给了我很大的惊喜，小布局的节奏感把握的很棒。
《模特》和《红衣女人》有后劲，其他就没头没尾没主题。以前的短片集一般都有个贯穿主线，现在的短片集就像打翻的弹子盒，每个故事都蹦的没方向感。
逊于[goedam1]，有几个也太滥竽充数了点，个人觉得相对较好一点<齿虫><冥婚><人形模特>。
整體比較老套無聊⋯像小學時候看的那種鬼故事集錦。
6：二手衣柜（没鬼 但有变态男）
想到l说旁边的大哥睡着了打呼噜，醒来吐槽一句“1400？”继续睡就想笑。放映结束后前排男生鼓掌声特别大，( ̀⌄ ́)我对这部片倒是没啥感觉…出影厅看到毕赣和安娜，才知道我们是在一个厅看电影呀
中规中矩的韩式恐怖片，可惜内容没有任何惊喜点，有点失望！不过话说韩国拍恐怖片的男演员都这么帅吗，看恐怖片都这么养眼，建议我国导演学习一下！
简单粗暴，掐头去尾，所有恐怖只有奇观，不过脑子也只能左耳朵进右耳朵出
每个故事的主人都多少脑子有点那大病，碰见鬼和坏人第一反应都不是往外跑无语死了
短篇故事良莠不齐，当然有几个小故事还是不错的
补一下在平遥没机会看到的这部 很喜欢这些东南亚背景下的电影 潮湿 闷热 和科长早年拍的片子的感觉有点像
