Hi guys, I’m about to drag in a load of off-topic posts from Juke’s TV reminiscence thread about Blair Witch Project because they are on-topic here. I reckon it’s non horror junkies discussing it so I’m plonking it here not in Horror.

January is almost over anyway so a new thread will be along soon.

  • good, would still watch

I still talk about it a lot. Pretty much everytime I’m in the woods.

Would like to get into making creepy wooden figures, runes, that sort of stuff and leave them around.

As a film-making exercise (and the associated internet promotional campaign) it was brilliant, borderline genius idea. The end product itself is spooky, occasionally unnerving, sometimes laughable, but has an excellent final scene. I never bought the idea that people were falling out of screenings at Cannes in utter terror though

The fake documentary about the fake documentary is better than the actual fake documentary

There was a film called The Last Broadcast which came out around the same time and had a similar story. I remember liking that

i think it succeed where no other found footage thing really worked (except rec) because the performances are so naturalistic. really it’s about 3 people losing their minds in an environment they are incapable of dealing with, the witch is almost incidental.

Yeah this is the one.

I’m glad the poll is skewing positive

Sick of people slagging it off as if either (a) incompetent or (b) a rip-off, when neither accusation really holds up to much

I don’t think there’s been a found footage horror film that really has followed what it did well yet
