The meaning is a straightforward negation of 'mollified' by the productive prefix 'un-': 'not calmed or softened'.

The word unmollified comes from mollify, which comes from the Latin mollis meaning 'soft', and the prefix un- meaning 'not'. So to be unmollified is to be not 'softened' or calmed, still angry, upset, or harsh.
