Where's The Witch?

Rating: 1/10 (20 October 2006)

If ever there was a film which had the ability to promise so much and deliver so little, this would be it. This was a film which did better promoting itself than it did delivering its supposed frightening contents. The culprits for this film fiasco are listed as Heather Donahue, Joshua Leonard and Michael C. Williams. From the prospective of a common boy scout these supposedly "College" students made every mistake as could be made by even the most stupid junior cub-scouts. Their purpose was to travel, via outdoors backpacking to the legendary ghost site of the famous Blair Witch and to ascertain her possible authenticity. As the viewer travels along with them, one wonders if they left their brains in neutral or just back in their dorms. Even Gilligan would not have been that dumb to carry out their own demise, not from the confrontation of the Witch, but with their own ignorance. The police should have bagged this one as death by stupidity. If there was ever a film which audiences should be warned about not seeing, this is the best candidate for that job. It does not even rate one star.
