    Much, much too awful to watch

    I'll be honest: I am in no way connected to or know anyone having the slightest thing to do with this movie.

    And this movie sucks. Also being honest: I did not watch it all, because life is too short. It's not the production values that I mind -- although they were very low budget. It's not the threadbare dialogue, delivered by actors with all the skill of B-grade porn stars -- although they were awful. It's not the overdone and stilted narrator who appears to be reading from cards -- although he...

    wait a minute...

    yes, it IS all those things that I mind! They suck, this movie sucks and you would be wasting your time to watch it, much less pay to watch it.

    If you are one of those rare people who enjoy poorly written, edited, directed and acted video releases, then I guess... I would ask you, what's wrong with you?

    This movie sucks a lot! Don't be tempted!

    Ever wonder what happened to Chris' amateur movie scripts on the "Sopranos"?

    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.

    Entertaining Short

    As a past film student and one who appreciates good suspense, I really enjoyed The Unknown Trilogy. I had a chance to see it this week for the first time. The Unknown Trilogy is made up of three short stories that definitely reminded me of Night Gallery, or Twilight Zone. These stories are definitely well written and are very thought provoking, suspenseful and true to life. The cinematography was beautiful as well as the music. Also the dialog very believable and frankly, the acting was very, very good too! Sal Mazotta, Ed O'Ross, David Proval, Johnny Williams, Angie Everhart, Robert Constanzo, Abe Vigoda and Justin Guarini all did an excellent job. In the eternal words of Siskel and Ebert, and my humble opinion, this film deserves a thumbs up!

    rather cheap - mostly pathetic

    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.

    Commenting on this movie would help

    Commenting on good or bad this movie would helpful. How was it? I can read the summary of the movie to tell what its about. But why did you give it three out of 10 stars ? Why did u dislike it ? Why did they have a blast making the film ? I also can careless about how hot the characters are , especially male characters.. If there is not a good plot or they cast is the worst in the world then the movie will stink. No matter how hot one cast member is. Commenting o n good or bad this movie would helpful. How was it?
