The Unknown Trilogy

I know truly crappy movie quality when I see it, and I have to say that based on many of the other reviews, here, I was fully expecting this to be among that ilk of film. It's the strangest thing I've ever seen - the reviews are either glowing wonderful or glowing with damnation, no in- between. But really, it's just your average very-low-budget indie type film. I really rather enjoyed it. Granted, there were so many ways it could've been improved, but I think the creators and actors did about as good as they could with what they had been given. It has a sort of Twilight Zone/Alfred Hitchcock tone to it. But all in all, and especially for all the horrid reviews, I was very pleasantly surprised. Just watch the first 15-20 minutes if you're not sure, that should be enough to tell you whether or not you can stand to watch the rest of it. As low-budget as it was, it at least seems to have had some people behind it who actually tried doing a good job - I didn't get a sense of any of this as having been "tossed to the wind" or just carelessly, haphazardly thrown together. It can actually be a bit touching if you let yourself get carried down that route with it. Not the greatest, but certainly worth watching. The three stories are just right so that if you'd prefer it, you could technically watch them in separate viewings and not really miss a thing. So if you don't think you don't want to spend an entire hour-and-a-half on it all at once, don't - I think the 2nd & 3rd story will keep well until you're in the mood. This review would be so much more positive if not for feeling like I have to try to find some way to explain the rancor & bile - I just don't see what the justification is for some of the remarks. Granted, I -do- think some of the rave reviews early on were probably faked, but that doesn't automatically mean it's a horrible film - I don't approve of faked reviews, but even believing that to be the case, I can't really trash the movie over it. It's not a bad little set of flicks. Whimsical, basic, very simple story-telling.

Unknown movie, a thriller, a horror? This trilogy of thriller/horror movies it was supposed to "delve into the deepest, darkest parts of human existence, into the unknown regions beyond life and death, and into the most fear-ridden parts of the human imagination." Don't get your hopes up now Growing up lots of kids have aspirations of moving to Los Angeles and pursuing a career as a movie star, writer, producer, or director. Not every kid realizes those dreams. CASH alum Brian Cavallaro (this is the producer of the film) followed his dreams to Los Angeles and puts together "The Unknown Trilogy" is a three-piece film, broken up into three separate 30 minute films. I think he had nightmares (not dreams): he made one bad movie, with bad acting, cheap all around.

As I sat there watching the first of the 3 stories I had this gnawing sense of being conned. I'd read the IMDb comments and most suggested an entertaining experience. Obviously they were written by one of the film's financial backers for this is a truly awful film. The dialog is border-line moronic, the characters are hackneyed stereotypes and the plots are so simplistic and obvious that one has to wonder who could find the stories worth telling. I can truthfully see film schools forcing their students to watch this as a lesson on how not to make a movie. It's hard to imagine how this piece was ever actually released, but if you examine the credits you will find a very limited number of people involved. My only advice would be to learn from your mistakes and move on to new projects.

I am a huge fan of the "mystery/thriller/horror" genre and watch almost any movie i come across in this genre. To be honest, this was exactly how i got the chance to watch this movie and I am extremely happy that i did. I have watched innumerable anthology movies but this definitely is one of the best of 'em all. This movie comes like a whiff of fresh air. All the three stories are intriguing and move at a nice pace, eliminating the possibility of boredom to creep in. The movie stays true to the premise it offered at the beginning, that of delving into the human psyche in different circumstances. No action or violence (read gore) was needed and thankfully not used to create tension or suspense, chills. A brilliantly scripted and directed movie along with some impressive acting, A huge achievement for such a low budget movie. Watch it if you can, believe me you'll not regret it. watch it with your family on a Sunday afternoon and you'll all might actually enjoy it together!!!!! I give it 8/10 Highly recommended

A year ago I unfortunately saw this piece of garbage, fortunately, free on the internets. Talk about 90 minutes of crap. The movie's complete lack of quality compelled me to sign up on IMDb to write a warning review. This film is seriously that bad.. Well, within a week of my posting, the review was flagged as inappropriate by some user. No reason was given so I said "whatever" and decided not to waste any more time on this stinker.

Then I was cleaning up in my inbox just now and came across the old mail informing me of the deletion of my comment. I decided to check on this again and read all the ten star reviews. Aaaaand there is no doubt in my mind that they are all written by one or two people, surely affiliated with the film. The quite shoddy style of writing and reoccurring words are a dead giveaway. Just face the fact, your movie sucks on a previously unknown scale.

Bottom line: Do not waste 90min. of your precious life on this. Staring at a bar of soap for the same amount of time is more rewarding.
