I just created a file named: "'##'''ΒΈΒΈ```.txt"  
... apostrophe seems not to be a problem. Probably a matter of the filesastem
.. using ext4 here. Maybe you have something like FAT ?

... Nothing happens? So after extraction, there is no file ?  .... how should
thunar mark something red, if there is nothing to be marked ?

Probably best would be to provide a screenshot of what you currently see in
thunar/in the terminal after extraction in order to see whats going on.
