The Blair Witch Project

Rating:
Summary: A wonderful movie, well-worth watching.
Review: The Blair Witch project was a good psychological horror film. It doesn't have the blood and gore of the more traditional horror films, but you are scared because you can get into the characters shoes through the first-person camera work, and see them slip into hopelessness and terror as they realize that they are up against something way beyond their league. The ending was especially disturbing (if you pay attention at the beginning of the film). It has stayed with me for over a week. The best part is that it is done without the aid of music, gore, or a final confrontation. I can't recommend this movie highly enough. Also, to those who ask, "What's so scary about rocks and stick figures and sounds?" I'm not going to insult you, but I will ask, "If you heard scary noises outside your tent in the dead of night and woke up in the morning to find grave markers (the piles of rocks) placed outside your tent, signaling your impending demise, wouldn't you be a little scared? If you were being stalked by who-knows-what that had the potential to kill you and you found figurines that were obviously witchcraft oriented hanging up everywhere, wouldn't you be scared? If you were being stalked and had to stay yet another night in the woods where whatever-it-is was, wouldn't every little sound terrify you, not to mention human footsteps and unseen children laughing and crying at 3:00 AM?" If I knew that something were stalking me and I couldn't get away, I wouldn't need a machete through the head to scare me. Nor, do I think, would you. My only complaint was that the connection between Rustin Parr and the Blair Witch was not explicitly made in the film (you have to go to the web page, or watch Curse of the Blair Witch to really see the connection). Taking a few extra seconds of footage to make that connection explicitly would have helped. My advice: Watch it, and be very, very afraid.

Summary: Well, I enjoyed it...
Review: As you can see from the past reviews, people either love or hate this movie. Personally, I loved it. My advice is to ignore the hype and see the film for yourself, then make up your own mind.

Summary: This is a movie?
Review: My curiosity about the public hype led me to see this film in a local theater for $1.50. Not much of a financial loss, right? To tell the truth, I was laughing throughout the film, especially during the tent-shaking scene. Scary? Yeah, right! I normally don't watch horror movies because I do frighten easily, but this didn't even affect me. I was even getting bored near the end, wondering when the Blair Witch would kill these students so I could go home. There are scarier movies than this. I would suggest Misery or a Hitchcock classic.

Summary: This movie is AWFUL!
Review: I saw this piece of junk on DVD and fell asleep through half of it. First of all where did they put the 40k, all I saw was some stupid fake blood with a loser's tongue WHICH WAS NOT SCARY AT ALL! And that was it, that was what you could actually call a special effect although it's a lot worse. This movie is sooo boring. It'll make your head spin the camcorder is so shaky and stupid. All's your watching is 3 losers walking around cursing. And where are all the scary parts there were none. If your a normal person you won't buy this it's probably the best way to waste money. VERY BAD MOVIE!

Rating:
Summary: This movie is not worth it.
Review: This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It is incredibly boring and stupid. The last five minutes are the only part worth watching, to avoid the motion sickness that some people experience when watching this film. I appreciate the how the lack of special effects make this movie even more creepy, but it's not all it is hyped up to be.

Summary: This is a lousy movie...that about sums it up!
Review: This has got to be the worst movie that I've paid to see in a long, long time. How this movie got the hype it did, I will never, ever know. Do not waste your money on it. Talk about going in circles? I wondered if it would ever end, and when it did I was so glad...too bad I found out too late and wasted my hard-earned cash...save your money and your time, and find something else better (which will not be too hard)

Rating:
Summary: nice concept, overall a little boring
Review: Rent this movie before you buy it. The first two thirds I found pretty boring, with some more exciting sections in between. The end of the film was probably worth the wait, but then I'm not all too impressed. The documentary that comes with DVD version was a nice add-on. Beware, severe camera-shake can cause motion sickness.
