I've read on the net that AES-Two Fish-Serpent Cascade is best for overall security, is this true?

I suppose it is better, but it will be slow as shit. Just use one, you'll be fine.

Bruteforcing through just one algorithm is almost (in the mathematical sense) impossible, so you'll want to protect against possible future cryptanalysis. AES and Serpent are based on the same mathematical principles so there's really no benefit in cascading them together, you should use either AES + Twofish or Serpent + Twofish because Twofish will be immune to most attacks against AES or Serpent.
