IT DOESN'T GET BETTER THAN THIS!

Rating: Null/10 (3 January 2000)

Probably the best horror flick ever made other than Exorcist. The Blair witch project brings out the fear that was buried down deep inside me. It made me feel the same way I felt during watching all those creepy Nightmare on Elm's Street' movies when I was a kid. I never thought that any movie could make those hairs at the back of my neck rise again. But how wrong I was? Although I was unlucky not to have an opportunity to watch this movie on big screen but still this one has struck me with full force. The idea to make a horror flick like a documentary gone haywire was so ingenious and yet so simple that one wonders why didn't somebody else thought about it earlier. But isn't that how all great things are? The cinematography is simply superb and Oscar worthy. Hats off to the whole idea of making a horror movie without any gory scenes. Its amazing how such trivial things as piled up rocks and twigs in particular shapes can make one shiver with fear. It will be difficult to top this one.
