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.
女主长相和档5过于神似导致我全程嗑颜停不下来，甚至觉得结尾的黑发状态更美了……鸟宝宝不吃呕吐物还是挺可爱的。
每一个听话孩子的心里是不是都有一个小怪物，如果父母一味的想要一个乖宝宝，最好的办法是在约束的范围下任其发展，有好有恶，这才是一个完整的正常人。
切入点很妙，他人的期望和嫉妒逐渐变成锋利的剥削，在心灵划出青春伤痕，隐秘地威逼着我们往固定的方向成长，不容有失；新媒体时代下，镜头的凝视也裹挟着我们扼杀不完美和不如意，磨出锃亮光滑的表象供人消费，亦或是成为表象的消费者。在这两重意义上，或许我们都是等待被“孵化”的蛋，以被剥削个性的代价换得破壳而出。
原生家庭的恐怖童话，最后坏女儿的长成让病态的母亲眼中闪过更加强烈的希望，似乎一切都没有得到好转。
有其母必有其女，教育子女要成才就是在孵化他们去善变残忍的一面，人之初性本恶。导演的恐怖设定有想法 3.5
开头几分钟阴冷气质就出来了，孵化意识对抗强权
- 再来说说狗比母亲吧，在家里摸修理工人的迪克还要带女儿去他家里过夜。抹杀了孩子的童年，硬要强迫孩子做些她不想做的事。
故事感觉有点简单了啊，所有元素和情节都点到为止，没有太恶化的表现，妈妈也没有歇斯底里，爸爸和弟弟完全打酱油，最后故事也戛然而止，没能留下太多印象的电影
亲子关系的一部电影，感觉是分裂成2个角色，跟着自己负面情绪越长越大，有不少地方还是觉得比较恶心的，虽然情节上有点老旧了，但是最后的结局是在是妙。女主的演技还蛮不错的。
以为会用蛋本身以及孵化这个动作承载心理恐怖肇生的全部，不料蛋破壳得太早，整出故事的超自然点便成了小女孩与怪物生心的纠缠态及早已泛滥的“鸠占鹊巢”式反转。但就反刍喂食、畸形价值观家庭教育与“孵化”巧妙关联来说，细思恐极的讽刺效果高分达成。
还挺好的，老老实实讲故事，虽然没太啥惊喜，但是很真挚的作品
平平无奇 加了一个猎奇的点
恐怖谈不上，主标签应该是猎奇，讲了一个“我来做杨幂，你来做三梦奇缘....”的故事，观察视角很多面化也很有意思！嫉妒，贪婪，色欲，暴怒，暴食，7 宗罪用了五个来讲失败的原生家庭有多可怕，最后二胎男孩高兴的问“所以那不是噩梦？”不亲爱的，那就是你们的噩梦
又是一部弱化男性，突出女性缺点的电影。看来家庭教育中，父亲这个角色的缺失，是所有国家都常在的问题。果然，不婚不育保平安，不仅保自己，还能保邻居。（🐶）
八十年代风儿童剧虽然道理确实通俗易懂但能不能引起现在孩子的共鸣呢？
妈妈对女儿畸形的爱，鸡血体操，完美家庭下的锅底灰。小女孩孵出的鸟最终变成了自己
还有很廉价的扣图制作，
6.4(5⃣️)，真正孵化邪恶的是畸形的家庭，病态强势的母亲，懦弱无能的父亲，压制又释放出女儿的黑暗一面。猎奇噱头具备一定的吸引力，但是剧情脉络缺失惊喜，使用荒诞的故事走向去包裹着干瘪浅显的表达，最后孵化出的成品也像这个丑陋的怪物一般/ 但是最后怪物完全化身女儿之后太美了！/ 小女孩演得不错
对最后的结局完全摸不着头脑，莫名其妙的转化。里面人物对超自然事件对发生接受的也太好了吧，父母感情不合女儿对介入的第三者接受的也太好了吧……一切都好悬浮……恐怖片果然是没有下确界的一种类型片
其中的道理经得起时间考验，但作为一部影视作品，观赏性就明显不足够了。两星。
