Review of The Blair Witch Project (1999) by Robertobrien — 10 Jul 2015
The only good thing about this movie is the acting. It's really just three annoying cardboard cut outs walking around in the woods for 90 minutes. The story is almost non-existent and the characters are flat.
I'm all for "what-you-don't-see" type of horror. 'The Others' and 'The Haunting' from 1963 are some of my favorite films. But this film is just woefully boring, and when something is happening, it's just a shaky cam vomiting mess.
The only reason it was successful was because people were dumb enough to think it was real.
If you want to see a much better found-footage film, with a similar concept, but made first, and better, check out 'The Last Broadcast' from 1998. Skip this disjointed, over praised, shaky cam, boring and uninteresting trite.
