Made for $30,000 by two young filmmakers from Florida, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT wowed festival audiences for several months before finding distribution at the 1999 Sundance Festival. It is an ingenious creation which makes effective use of ... Full Descriptionits lack of budget and cast of unknowns. The film is composed entirely of reportedly "found" footage shot by three missing college students who made a journey to the woods of Western Maryland in 1994 with the purpose of making a documentary about a "witch" of local legend who is linked to murders and mysterious occurrences spanning 200 years. It begins with footage of the crew leaving their homes and testing their equipment, but before we know it, they are lost deep in the endless woods, with the voices of screaming children piercing the blackness from off in the distance. Things get worse from there. The experience is disorienting and frightening as well as the most rewarding horror film experience to come along in many years, as it wisely chooses to prey on our vulnerable imaginations rather than bombard us with graphic images.Blair Witch Project Quotes/Excerpts: "No redneck is this creative!"

"Do we have any weed?"
- Heather, to Michael and Josh, during the night of revelry before their trek. Blair Witch Project Reviews: "...I have seen the new face of movie horror and its name is THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT..."
-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "...Works [even] better at home because it's a tale told close-up....Believably unnerving..." -- Rating: B+
-- Ty Burr, Entertainment Weekly "...A nifty example of how to make something out of nothing....A most inventive departure from standard horror fare..."
-- Janet Maslin, New York Times "...Stylistically accomplished....THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT achieves a harrowing sense of subjective dread..."
-- Ray Greene, Box Office "...Low-budget horror at its resourceful best, in the same innovative league as the original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD..."
-- Susan Wloszczyna, USA Today "...Clever....BLAIR PROJECT's fakery is utterly convincing..."
-- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times "...An extraordinarily effective horror film....The movie is like a celebration of rock-bottom production values..."

Don Siegel's cult masterpiece, interpreted as an allegory of both McCarthyism and Communism, is undoubtedly one of the screen's most disturbing evocations of paranoia. It stars Kevin McCarthy as Dr. Miles Binnell, a physician whose traumatized arrival in the emergency room of a San Francisco hospital leads the staff to believe he's lost his mind. In a series of flashbacks, he unwinds a bizarre account of his last few days. After his return from a trip to rural Santa Mira, his nurse, Sally (Jean Willes), explains that his office has been flooded with patients who have made appointments yet never appeared. Former girlfriend Becky Driscoll (Dana Wynter) tells him that she's unable to rid herself of the belief that the man claiming to be her uncle is an impostor. A hysterical young boy refuses to return home, claiming that his mother is not his mother. Miles's ...

Blair Witch Project Movie Review Average Rating: (3.1 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews What a Steamer!!
This movie was a steaming pile! Quite possibly the worst film ever made. The concept is a great one, but the execution failed miserably.
Any first year film student knows how to use a camera and hold it relatively steady. Granted, I would'nt expect them to hold the camera steady while chasing ghost through the woods. But even the interview shots in town were shaking like my Aunt Myrtles home movies from Pismo Beach. Mix in a tripod... graduate film students huh??? yeah right!!
I had the misfortune of seeing this on the big screen and it made me physically ill.
If you've seen the commercial showing the 3 idiots arguing, then you've seen the entire movie. They argue, then they go to bed. They wake up scared in the middles of the night. Repeat steps over and over and over and over again for about two hours. Add 1 lame-ass ending and you have "the Blair Witch Project."
OUT!

Unique...Most Truimphant Indy Film Since El Mariachi
For only having $30K to work with, these guys scared the
hell outta me even the day after I saw it. Is it the best
scare of all time?....no. One major flaw I found was the whole
navigation thing. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen the movie. The first time you see this movie it HAS to be dark or the effect will be lost. It's downfall will be lack of replayability appeal. But definetely one you have to see once.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Sent chills down your back.
This movie was okay. The beginning was okay, but it didn't get good intill the end. And I didn't understand the ending intill my sister explained it to me. Good to rent and watch in the dark, but don't buy it because it would be a waste of money. Even though the ending sent chills down my spine. The beginning sent it crashing down. I mean come on all they did was drink, get lost,say the "f" word, and then die.
