3. Triangle
“Triangle” is a 2009 psychological horror film written and directed by Christopher Smith, featuring Melissa George and Michael Dorman in leading roles. The story follows a single mother, played by George, who joins several friends on a boating excursion. When they are forced to abandon their vessel, they find refuge on a deserted ocean liner, only to suspect that they are being hunted by an unseen presence.
This film is a British-Australian co-production, financed in part by the UK Film Council, which allocated £1.6 million ($2.8 million) from the National Lottery fund for its development, production, and distribution.
Critics have noted that the film demands active engagement from viewers to unravel its complex narrative structure. “Triangle” premiered at the London FrightFest Film Festival on August 27, 2009, and was released in UK theaters on October 16, 2009.
The movie received generally positive reviews from both critics and audiences. Praise was directed toward Smith’s direction, the intricate narrative, and the performances—particularly that of Melissa George. The film was also lauded for its themes, suspenseful atmosphere, and innovative use of time loops. Despite the acclaim, it earned only $1.3–1.6 million worldwide against a production budget of $12 million.
