Review of The Blair Witch Project (1999) by Rod E — 31 Dec 2012
The greatest hype ever pulled on moviegoers. Can you believe that morons thought this was actually real? There is something to appreciate with the Blair Witch Project and it's not in the movie, but rather in the marketing.
A cool concept doesn't seem remotely scary in the way that other ghost or lore stories succeed in using your imagination. Crap camera work and huffing and puffing doesn't help to create fear. The only time the movie has any momentum is towards the end and that's it.
I like the beginning documentary part of it and can't say that I hated the whole movie. Too much repetitiousness in conflict scenes of getting lost or dealing with Heather. Still the Blair Witch Project is one of those movies that I cannot dislike entirely.
It does capture the outdoors in the season of fall with a cool back story involving the legend of the Blair Witch. I just wish that there was more to it.
