Umberto Lenzi is undoubtedly the king of Italian crime movies, but unfortunately; Syndicate Sadists is not the best examples of his work in this genre. Lenzi's crime flicks tend to be a cut above the rest because he makes films based on stories with a point, and they don't lack direction; but this film feels a bit too wayward to fully fit with the rest of his stuff. The film takes obvious influence from Sergio Leone's landmark western 'A Fistful of Dollars' (which in turn, took influence from Akira Kurosawa's landmark samurai flick Yojimbo), in that it features two warring families and a strong character at the centre. The crime that Lenzi focuses on is kidnapping, and we centre on a character called 'Rambo'. Rambo is dragged into the war between the two families after his brother is killed because of it. Rambo uses his brains and brawn to pit the two families against one another, in the hope of gaining revenge for his brother's death, rescuing a young boy that they've kidnapped, and ultimately letting the two sides destroy one another.
The film's biggest asset is undoubtedly Tomas Milian. Milian was put to great use by Lenzi in almost all of his crime thrillers. The range of characters he has played for Lenzi is immense, and this one is easily one of the coolest. The character is called Rambo, which immediately sprang to mind the popular Sylvester Stallone character - but for once, the Italians actually haven't stolen this name as Syndicate Sadists was released first! As usual, the film is wickedly entertaining, as we get to watch Milian get himself involved in the usual array of car chases, shootouts and brawls. Lenzi has got him riding a motorbike this time round, and every scene featuring it and Milian is a real standout! However, the film often feels like it doesn't really have anywhere to go, and this means that the running time is stretched out more than it should be. Compared to the crime films of other Italian directors, Syndicate Sadists is more than above average; but in relation to Lenzi crime flicks such as Almost Human and The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist - it doesn't stand tall as one of Lenzi's best. Still, if you're looking for ninety minutes of testosterone fuelled mayhem - Syndicate Sadists will suffice!
“没了记忆还是人么？那是僵尸……”所有的体面和尊严在阿尔兹海默症面前都荡然无存……发病时有多无力 清醒那一刻就有多痛苦
除了最后一段剧情略显突兀和形式化，前面整体还是不错的。剧情常见但表达很真诚很细腻。女主演技很惊艳，就是发力稍早稍猛了些，而安圣基很从容淡定，火候拿捏得刚刚好。
7分的恐怖片想说应该不错，结果打开来是一部文艺烂俗片，我真的会谢，要么你按照正常叙事拍也行，非要用这种装逼的调性，真的做作！其实女巫去套皮体验不同人生的设定拍下去挺高级，为什么中途急转直下开始俗套人生，你这哪怕配些神神叨叨的台词，故事还不就这么回事！
从女巫的角度去感受生命，有点太直白和做作。
你看清你自己了吗？你是魔鬼吗？成为了女人，又成为男人，学会爱，快乐，笑。可世界依然在灼烧着，痛苦着，一边痛苦一边爱，这就是人类。不要做人类。（镜头配乐更优秀，我太喜欢了，全部。）
在同类型片中流于形式的中庸之作，束手束脚。女主演技仍需努力，没有什么突破可言。有情节也不够合理，总体一般。
她是万物，她永远在流淌。
女巫妹子和小帅哥的爱情挺有感染力的 真真觉得很惋惜 其他的一般般
被虐待的女人的一生，悲悯的婆婆的一生，简单的年轻男子的一生，被宠爱的妻子和失去丈夫母亲的一生...经历了不同的人生，但女主始终以最简单的方式看世界，做好手头的事，没有嫉妒，没有怨恨...全片展示了人类的劳作之美，可是说劳动贯穿了始终，也许这就是真正的上帝视角：无论什么样的人生，都是平等的人的一生。
美女姐姐的演技太牛了！主要就是剧本有点拖后腿，所以三星半
惊悚/自我归属 /宿命轮回 /爱
假装恐怖片的文艺片。血腥残忍的设定，随意杀人然后霸占别人的人生，缓慢沉闷的呓语旁白，想要讨论什么却也只是空洞，最后女人都生孩子的结局，绝了。
有猎奇，有血腥，但全然不像B级片，不能很好地归于某个类型，用纪实的镜头记录一个女巫，拼命的想掌控人生却难逃宿命。段落分的很棒，旁白也好，前面怼着女主拍深得我心
前面节奏稍慢了，后半段开始明晰起来。爱战胜孤独。
差点因为“恐怖”和“超自然”的标签错过了，其实还挺温情的，无奈也是真的无奈
三星半。还不错。人类在疾病面前真的太渺小了，所以心态要好，尽力享受当下所拥有的，就算没有辜负这短暂又平凡的一生了。
一部包装在女巫外衣下的公路片。自我迷失和身份认同的过程，最后母爱大过天
那个满是被爱包围的小伙子 我感受过
差点因为“恐怖”和“超自然”的标签错过了，其实还挺温情的，无奈也是真的无奈
让自己大热天的倒吸了一口冷气...............
