Triangle
Thank you, Darren, for pointing us in the direction of Triangle – a solid thriller that we enjoyed a lot. Assuming, of course you wanted us to review 2009’s Triangle and not 2016’s The Triangle…
We break down this classic found-footage project, which is certainly a project of its time. How does it hold up today? Listen and fine out what we think about that.
This is the story of divorce amidst a failing relationship, told with style and high-intensity and a very obtuse plotline. We often didn’t know what to make of the goings-on, but we couldn’t deny that this film unsettled us both, and that’s a good thing. Have a listen.
You also get the screen debut of Daphne Zuniga of “Spaceballs” fame, one of Hollywood’s most prolific makeup designers AND one of its most prolific film composers. So as always, we try to appreciate it for what it is, without shying away from laughing at its ineptitude.
This movie adaptation takes the imagery from the book’s nightmarish illustrations, and the urban legend tales that spooked us out so much as kids, and combines them into a “kids’ horror film” that manages to be the dark, twisted, no-holds-barred kids’ horror film that we have often lamented from our childhoods. A pleasant surprise and a fun film to talk about.
