A Major Disappointment
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Blistering performances.
I didn't know what to expect from this,it sounded like a good TV movie.I think it started off OK.As the movie went on, I was getting a bit bored now and again Liked how they explained, how the people died, and the twist or what ever you want call it.I thought that twist was really good. it did cross my mind during the movie but I dismissed it.Cool ending , decent TV movie Not scary or anything but still somd- what enjoyable With some decent acting for a TV movie. 5 out of 10
The 1970s saw an explosion of interest in the Bermuda)or Del's Triangle) area off the eastern coast of Floriada, where a number of ships, and aircraft as well have either vanished completely, or been found minus their passengers, or crew. It's surprising they TV did not make more such films during the 1970s(although several documentary films were made, for the big screen, and television as well).In brief, Kim Novak plays Eva, sole survivor of a doomed yacht adrift in the Triangle, whose other crew members have met with various paranormal demises. She's wonderfully sinister, yet beautiful at the same time. Without giving too much away, the twist ending may not be so much a surprise to veteran viewers of this type of programming, but is still quite creepy. I would imagine that this film moves slowly for modern viewers, but many films had a more leisurely style still in th '70s than more recently; not really a flaw in my opinion.I do recommend the film, and apparently, it is now available on DVD, good news for those who recall it from their childhoods like myself.
Two airplane pilots are sent to respond to a call for help deep in the middle of Satan's Triangle.They find an abandoned boat adrift with several bodies and just one survivor(Kim Novak).The frightened woman tells Lieutenant Haig(Doug McClure) the details of a dark and frightening voyage into terror as the two spend the night together on the vessel.Unfortunately the sinister tale of Satan's Triangle is linked to the mysterious priest supposedly dead on board."Satan's Triangle" is an eerie gem of early 70's TV-horror.When I was a kid I was fascinated by the mystery of Bermuda Triangle and this film links it with Satanic force.8 triangles out of 10.
I saw this as a young adult while in the Army in Hawaii. I was sick in bed one day and stumbled across this flick just as it started. I have always remembered this film because of the ending. When Doug smiled while bobbing in the water, I just about froze with chills. The Marlin floating below deck was trey creepy too. It was the only time I have ever seen this film. This was in 1976 so its been 30 years and I can still see that expression on his face. I've probably seen hundreds of horror films since and forgotten most of them, but Satans Triangle stands out as one of the best low budget creep fest's to date. well done. I miss Doug McClure.
