A Complete Mess

Rating: 4/10 (1 December 2005)

I was looking forward to a great horror film when I rented The Blair Witch Project, not all the stupid slasher stuff like whats in most horror films today but some really creepy and truly scary stuff without all the blood and guts like in The Others and such, but all I got was an hour of boredom and a very scary couple minutes at the end. Unfortunetely this is not anywhere near enough to have a good film, the majority of it has to be good not just the last five minutes. The way they filmed it was very interesting, they didn't tell the actors what to say or what would happen, the actors also did almost all the camera work making it bouncy and confusing which could and has made some films even scarier but in this case just gets annoying. The performances are horrible especially the girl, she is just horrible, and deserved her Razzie and should get a lifetime acheavment award from them because she has been just as bad in all her other stuff. The story and direction are the only things that work at all. The last five minutes are terrifying but everything else just stinks.
