You'll Never See Another Like It

Rating: Null/10 (30 March 2002)

Love it or hate it, but you can say that you'll never see another movie like The Blair Witch Project.
I was very fortunate to see this movie at the very first showing at 2AM on a Friday morning. I had seen the commercials on tv for it, but that's all I knew about it. In fact, if it wasn't for some idiots who were standing in front of me in line, I would've gone into this movie thinking it was real. So basically I saw this movie before all the real hype came out about it, but I will be totally honest with you, I loved it!
We are so, for want of a better word, corrupted by the Horror genre now-a-days. All of my life has been filled with Jason, Michael & Freddy, which was not a bad thing when those movies were original, but now we so picky when a scary movie comes out, that we blow it out. Blair Witch was so suspenseful because you never see the "witch" and there are parts of this movie that literally scare the H-E-Double Hockey Sticks out of you.
I don't agree with the people who call this movie "The Scariest Movie Ever", but it sure had me gripping the seat handles at the theater, and I thought about the movie for weeks after. It was original and I tell everyone who hasn't seen it to catch it.
