neither horrifying nor thrilling

Rating: 1/10 (5 August 1999)

The Blair Witch Project is absolutely boring. It is not scary, or even creepy; it is astonishing that anyone could find it so much as unsettling. Moreover, the performance of the main character/actor Heather Donohue is unbelievable and overacted.
If you must see this movie, wait for it to come out on video or on TV; it simply doesn't need to be seen on a big screen. In fact, it simply needn't be seen at all; don't waste your time or money with it.
If you want a quality psychological movie in the horror/thriller genre try Les Diabolique (1955) or The Innocents (1961).
