AVERAGE, ALL THE HYPE WRECKED IT!!

Rating: 7/10 (26 December 1999)

Okay when I went to watch this there was a lot of hype, of how this was the scariest movie of all time, the best low budget flick, but I think all that hype wrecked the effect of the film. Many people went in knowing what was happening, I think it would have been much more better if I went in knowing nothing and then yeah it might have been scary. The people reviewing it were maybe the first to see it, they new nothing about it and it was scary. But since that didn't happen, when I saw it I thought the Blair Witch Project was an average movie. Not really scary when watching it.(nothing scary happened) Overall it would have been a great movie but all the hype wrecked the whole atmosphere. I've heard about Cannibal Holocaust which is meant to be pretty much the same as BWP but it was made in the 70's. A group go in to the jungle to make a documentary on cannibals, they are lost, footage found and we see there footage. An BWP is meant to be original.
