''Triangle'' is a 2009 British-Australian psychological horror film directed by Christopher Smith (who also directed ''[[Creep]]'' and ''[[Film/Severance|Severance]]'').
 
The story revolves around Jess ([[Melissa George]]), one of the passengers of a yachting trip in the Atlantic Ocean who, when struck by mysterious weather conditions, jump to another ship only to get stuck in either a [[Groundhog Day Loop]], [[Stable Time Loop]], [[Alternate Timeline]], [[Bad Future]] or [["Close Enough" Timeline]].
 
Yeah... it's [[Mind Screw|pretty confusing]]...
Line 57:
* [[Scenery Porn]]
* [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]: This is what Jess tries to do {{spoiler|but only created another timeline which we don't see completely in the movie.}}
* [[Shout -Out]]: The killer wearing a sack as a mask is a [[Shout -Out]] to ''[[Friday the 13th (Film)|Friday the 13 th]] Part II'', in which Jason Voorhees wears a pillow case over his head prior to the iconic hockey mask.
* [[Slashed Throat]]: {{spoiler|Downey, in the second time loop. This doesn't kill him straight away, and he ends up being stabbed repeatedly by Jess. He lives long enough to attempt to scrawl the name of his killer in his own blood, but dies partway through.}}
* [[Stable Time Loop]]: {{spoiler|Jess comes to the harbor looking dazed and eventually ended up being on the mysterious boat and threw a masked killer overboard. She realizes the [[Groundhog Day Loop]] and tries to break the chain by killing herself becoming the masked killer and getting thrown overboard. She drifted back to the shore where she was able to hitchhike back home seeing herself with her son. She killed her other self and wanted to dispose of the body which resulted in a car accident killing her son. She gets on a taxi to go to the harbor and the trauma seems to have caused amnesia. She comes to the harbor looking dazed and eventually ended up being on the mysterious boat, etc. etc. etc.}}
Line 70:
* [[The Walrus Was Paul]]: [[Word of God|Christopher Smith has stated]] that the movie is supposed to be ambiguous to let people interpret the movie in different ways.
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: What happened to Heather after their ship capsized? {{spoiler|Other than the surviving suspecting she survived, got on the cruise, and dropped her keys (which was done by Jess by the way), we never know whether she survived, died, or became part of the time anomaly.}}
* [[Who Wears Short Shorts?]]: Jess does.
