The Triangle

Okay kinda the question I was asking the whole time is this question. When the payoff finally comes.....extremely disappointing. Although I did start questioning my whole life and considered going to live in a commune somewhere. So I guess I can thank this film for that. Average 5 -1 For Bad ending. -1 for Not really that great a story.

I felt compelled to throw in my two cents as the review on the main page seems to miss the point. Listen, this movie may not be for everyone, but it is a quality piece of eerie mystery filmmaking. Fans of Ari Aster (Hereditary & especially Sommerset) or Robert Eggers (The Witch, The Lighthouse) will like this film. It is documentary-style and they create a great world where you feel that there's something just under the surface that is a little off. Check it out, but if you're in the mood for a slasher or a more in-your-face horror movie, maybe it's not for you.

It was more indie movie slow, but they did not have the blair witch vomit inducing shaky cams.

I am convinced the glowing reviews are the film makers. There is no plot, there is no horror or even tension & there is no ending. This is a movie about nothing! Do not waste your time, unless you need something to fall asleep to. It will cure your insomnia.

Wow, another movie with a 4,9 stars in imdb that you can´t understand why is so high... in short summary this film has no money, resources or actors (found footage) no story ("ambiguous" ending) there is really no plot but the cult disappears A documentary team (again) go to a cult (this is almost 20 minutes). Everything takes a long time. At the end, everybody goes to rapture

THE TRIANGLE is another low budget found footage horror flick which comes across as middling at best. My love for the genre is what keeps me enjoying and watching these films. The plot for this one is pretty mysterious: a group of male friends in L.A. receive a postcard from a departed buddy, who has joined a 'commune' in Montana. They decide to pay him a visit. What follows is a slow hour in which the viewer is forced to endure the usual opinionated hippy characters who think they've beaten the system by rejecting normal society. Eventually the main characters venture into a strange cave where they're assailed by a weird noise that makes them ill. The ending of the film is sufficiently creepy but there's too much padding before that point and the characters all feel more than a little annoying.

A decent enough piece of Lovecraftian horror, sans blood and gore or expensive special effects, that only hints at the cosmic terror haunting its victims. The Triangle has the look and feel of a fairly low-budget affair, but is filmed in a beautiful, stark location that lends to a suspenseful atmosphere. There are many open questions of character motivation and backstory that some will find unsatisfying. However, I was fine with certain key plot elements being left open to my imagination. Done right, the filmmakers could have elaborated and put the finishing touches on a masterwork of dread. But, given the ambition of the idea behind The Triangle, they could've more easily gone too far making silly, illogical choices, creating not a modest psychological thriller, but a full-blown farce. In the end, The Triangle is an incomplete, interesting charcoal sketch of a paranoid's half-remembered nightmare, but not a fully rendered, color masterpiece of a seer's infernal vision.

Normally I don't like spoiler reviews. But sonce there is nothing to spoil, here it is. A commune of hippie types find a dinosaur skull in a cave. Some of them had dreams about it when they were kids. They call some people to come out and film it cause some of them are getting sick. Then one morning they( the people that dreamed about it) walk into the cave and disappear. End of movie. Yup. That's all folks. Stupid AF.

Creepy vibe through out the film. Suspense dies after you see what is in the cave: A T-Rex skull That high pitch noise you hear when they approach the cave is excessive (i suppose the purpose is to create a tense atmosphere, but damn) use headphones or else you'll have dogs barking like crazy within a miles radius.
