Product: Triangle (2009)
Rating: 4.0
Triangle is a horror film that went under the radar.
I'm not going to talk about the plot because it is something that needs to be watched and will be better with the less you know.I thought it was an absolutely fascinating supernatural thriller. It is very complicated and doesn't make much sense at first and will leave you wondering long after the credits roll.The look of the film is great and directed very well. I was very surprised that the cast were not horrible actors. Usually films like these fall burden too the fact that only the lead and maybe main supporting role put on good performances but I thought everyone did a great job, especially the lead.The dialogue isn't amazing but it is made up by most of the brains of the script being put towards its complex and twisted structure.It isn't overly gory yet the violence is still incredibly shocking.I really liked the ending, it still leaves me wondering how some things happened and I really think it needs to be watched more than once. But I don't think the questions are enough to take away from the whole experience of the film.Overall I thought it was an incredibly unique, complex, thoroughly entertaining, and a clever and very well made film. Unlike many horror films I didn't think this one feel apart at the final act and continued to surprise me right until the credits rolled. I think I would consider this one of my favorites which is saying a lot when considering how many horror films I actually like. Now I may not have found this to be as scary as Paranormal Activity I think all together it is a much better film and my favorite horror film of 2009, if it can even really be considered one. 8.5/10
