Originality makes up for quite an awful film.

Rating: 6/10 (29 March 2002)

I gave this movie a 6. And why? Why give The Blair Witch Project, a deserving winner of so many Razzies, and other "worst films of 1999" awards, a rating reserved for films that are simply "not bad." The reason is, The Blair Witch Project is one of the most original movies ever made. The "acting" is awful, but you have to give major props to a horror movie with no music. You have to give major props to a movie that doesn't make itself, but sits back and lets a movie be made. Its' original in that no other movie has sent a buncha kids out in the woods with CAMCORDERS and seen what they get out of it. No other movie has paid their stars in sandwiches. These props made what probably should've been a 3 or 4 movie a 6.
