Perhaps a spiral would be a more applicable pattern to history. Luckily, I think there is more to the story than simply an endless cycle. Adam could be seen as a Sisyphus, who wanted to be like God, but was instead doomed with his descendants to repeat the endless cycle of history and warfare.

I see many parallels here with the biblical narrative of the garden of eden. Sisyphus seems to have been ambitious to usurp the position of the gods. After rolling a boulder up a hill all day every day for eternity, he could thank Zeus for his enormous and powerful physique. January 24, doubt Sisyphus was a pretty buff dude. She has a taxi take her back to the yacht and the story begins again! But, soon afterwards she watches him die in her car crash. She does (briefly) get her son back again. Jess is washed ashore where she takes the place of another version of herself. She tells her younger version that she has to kill all the others. Jess fights a younger version of herself and ultimately the oldest falls or gets pushed over the side of the ship. There are many versions of the same Jess on the ship for example. This is so that the group will come back to the ship again.Īt any one time, there are several duplicate groups on the ship, with some just arriving etc etc. The movie's plot is about a yacht disaster in the Bermuda Triangle, a group of three women and two men, and a ship named Aeolus.īasically, Jess is made to believe that she has to repeatedly kill the other group members.

This movie is about a single mother (Jess) who endlessly tries to save her handicapped son.

The horror movie Triangle incorrectly attributes Sisyphus' father (Aeolus) as the one destined to roll a rock up a hill only to see it roll back down again. When she awakes on the beach, it's like (looking at her eyes) she's awakening from death. She might be asking her duplicate to kill her.

But, each time she reboards the ship.Īlso, she doesn't remember how to save her son. For example, at one point she states that she wants to prevent everyone from ever boarding the ship. The movie wants us to believe that Jess forgets 99 percent of everything each time through the loop. The movie mostly just talked about the father via his son's story. I was surprised to discover that the movie was totally correct and did not incorrectly misrepresent his father. After researching Sisyphus and posting my comments about the movie 'Triangle' here, I went back and watched the movie again.
