Beyond the Bermuda Triangle (1975 TV Movie)
Sci-Fi Melodrama...
5 September 2022
In BEYOND THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE, the paranormal phenomenon of the title is at work once more. When a plane and speedboat disappear mysteriously, Corporate zillionaire Harry Ballinger (Fred MacMurray) gets involved in solving this enigma. Also, a little girl (Dana Plato) seems to be having psychic dreams about her missing mother.

Cue the woo-woo music.

This made-for-TV movie came out when the Bermuda Triangle was all the rage, along with Bigfoot, The Loch Ness Monster, and other esoteric creatures and occurrences. As such, it's a bit on the tedious side, with a lot of talk, but little real action.

MacMurray is good, but could have been given more to do with his role. Donna Mills and Sam Groom spend most of their screen time on their soap opera-like relationship instead of anything suspenseful or mysterious. It's very easy to forget that you're watching a movie about unsolved disappearances.

Still, it's watchable enough, just don't expect too much excitement...
