Scary

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2009)

I just saw this tonight in the cinema, and a lot of young people were screaming a lot and were quite affected by this movie. It is indeed very effective. The special effects are very good. I thought, perhaps, the acting was a bit weak, but it is more than made up for by amazing effects where you keep thinking: "How did they do it?" However, this is more like a real film which has been edited so the whole Blair Witch thing seems to be something else. This cannot have been the couple's camera that we did see. Anyway, the whole thing is very much like a meta-documentary even referring to Monty Python's Holy Grail, I think, at one point Mikah says: "What is your quest? What is your favorite color" or something like that, clearly a reference to Monty Python's famous movie. Anwyay, the whole thing is very intertextual and actually quite funny but also quite moving and scary. Highly recommended, especially for fans of fantasy and the occult.
