The Blair Witch Project Reviews
The Blair Witch Peoject-A Hell of a good scare.
In October of 1994, three student filmmakers, disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary, about the legend of the Blair Witch...
A Year Later, their footage was found. Not!
Who cares if The Blair Witch Project is really a faux documentary? The movie is still scary as Hell! Mike Williams, Heather Donahue, and Josh Leonard play the three ill fated college students, who vanish without a trace, and the Blair Witch Project if the footage they shot. Now edited for our viewing. Heather Donahue performance stands out as the backbone of the three(she really deserves an Oscar nomination, although I doubt she gets it, due to the fact that this is an Independant film). Through the Hell that these three endure, she still carries on her quest(obsesively) to film a documentary, filming arguments between the three, still persueing her dream to film.
Daniel Myrick, and Eduardo Sanchez prove that you don't have to have expensive special effects and lighting to scare and thrill people. The Blair Witch Project was rumored to have cost $40,000 to make and is still much more effective, than todays big budget films. Be prepared to sleep with the lights on.
NEXT, PLEASE!
"Three wanna-be student filmmakers disappeared during filming. Three years later, their footage was found. Reports of audience disappointment followed." Don't Believe the hype! This movie is LAME. It's success is typical of trendy teenagers who think they're "Sophisticated" by seeing an "independant" film like this. What is all the hype about? It's not scary, in fact, its incredibly BORING. Nothing worthwhile happens for almost the entire film (60+ minutes), and the only "creepy" things that do happen are twigs snapping in the dark, and piles of rocks that look weird. NO KIDDING! This is "Scary as hell?" And when the creepiness finally rolls around (took its damn time), its nothing more than what "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" accomplished, 100's of times better, 25 long years ago! Actually, I was quite glad to see them meet their fate; they were stupid enough to go in the woods themselves, purposely lose the map, and get lost and do nothing but bickering! Thank god they wouldn't live long enough to reproduce and treat the world to more stupid people! In fact, if it wasn't for the non-stop swearing, this film could have been rated PG! I know that's not the point (I'll be the first to claim that gore doesn't make a great horror flick), but it seems that the "filmmakers" simply threw in some swearing at the last minute to warrant an "R" rating, simply so the braindead moviegoing masses would take it seriously. It's a shame that the hype is what made this BOMB so popular; if stupid horror fans hadn't persuaded so many people to see it. Thankfully, I rented it. You shouldn't. Bypass this and go straight to the real classics. I'll even give you a starting list: 1. Night of the Living Dead (1968) 2. Dawn of the Dead 3. Suspiria 4. Hellraiser 5. Terror at the Opera 6. Dead Alive 7. Texas Chainsaw Massacre 8. The Exorcist 9. Re-animator 10. Psycho
