The Bermuda Triangle

Basically an evil doll movie on a boat. No events actually related to the "Bermuda Triangle." Totally boring and unimaginative. The girl and the doll are annoying. A couple of minutes of underwater scenes and pretty Gloria Guida for a few seconds here and there only interesting items. For curiosity only.

Cheese and ham, uniquely baked into a mess but somehow watchable. Completely overdubbed and bizarrely so. There are two young children in this. Their overdubbed voices sound like non-actors 10 years older with English as their second language, while dictating a script they are unfamiliar with. Crazy film making. The story is simple and linear but the acting and dialogue, OMG. The characters are dumb in this. It's strikingly obvious to most characters what the problem is but no one takes the easy step to solve it. Geeez.

Reading the other comments I must say that I'm not surprised. I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't recognize one's right to like stinky films. I like some z grades myself, but this movie ain't one of 'em. I spend 15$ on this crap. John Huston is in it, but doesn't do much other that stand around and talk in that voice of his. its almost a relief when his character is eaten by sharks. The only reason I like Rene Cordona Jr.s films is the nudity and luridness: this film has neither, so I hated it. As for the Bermuda Triangle I know nothing new about it after watching this film, and I'm not afraid of it any more than before. To add insult to injury there's a black character that is dubbed in mushmouth. Truly horrible: a disappointment in exploitation and offensive to boot.

Bermuda Triangle, The (1978) * (out of 4) Incredibly bad film from Mexican director Rene Cardona, Jr. A family goes off to the Bermuda Triangle to see what the big deal is and guess what happens. This film tries to be mysterious and creepy but fails on both levels because the screenplay is all over the place and never really makes a bit of sense. Character enter and exit the film without any explanation and the "mystery" of the Bermuda Triangle is never resolved or even talked about much, although the film tries to play claim to a cursed doll, which causes all the problems. There's some wonderful underwater photography but this too get hampered by three real sharks being killed on the screen for no reason. John Huston, Andres Garcia, Gloria Guida and Claudine Auger star.
