Product: Triangle (2009)
Rating: 4.0
Surprising Low-Budget Gem!
I LOVED Christopher Smith's "Severance." It's funny, it's surprising, the twists are ALMOST great (the reveal is kind of silly), but it was better than it might've been. With that in mind, I was really looking forward to "Triangle." "Triangle" starts off fairly normal like any American teen horror movie with stranded kids forced onto an abandoned ocean liner. But very early, there is a twist that you don't see coming with the Jess-character played amazingly well by Melissa George. To say much more about the movie would rob you of the surprise but needless to say, it becomes a film where you have to pay careful attention to what's happening as it goes from "Friday the 13th" to David Fincher's "The Game" or something pretty quickly. My only complaint is that after you figure out what's happening, the pay-off isn't THAT great. Still, it's better than most other horror movies out there, so check it out.
