See (1) below.

(2) See if this might work automatically:

Use a Read messages filter with it's source folder set to JUNK. Move
all of the messages that you want to mark unread into another folder
(let's call it KnownJunk) and mark the message as unread.

(1) Have you set the filter as follows?

    Rule is:

     [x] Active

     [ ] Manual only

If that isn't the problem, consider not having the filter mark the
messages "Unread", instead consider these possibilities: 

  a) Use the filter to apply a color group (let's call it Green)
     established, for this purpose, as a partial simulation "unread"
     for this special case. (Possibly you could filter all Green mail
     into a virtual folder into which all your other Unread mail is filtered.)

b) See (2) above.

Just a thought:

How about filtering
