Not _THAT_ scary...

Rating: 5/10 (3 August 1999)

Ok ok. So the plot was original... having the actors do the filming was a neat idea, too. But it wasn't _SCARY_. I mean, I was more on edge during the first half of "Evil Dead"...
And, despite the cool 1st person view, I found myself getting motion sickness more than once.
When one of the stone pile burial markers was kicked over, I was freaked. I expected all hell to break loose. It didn't. The whole map fiasco was lame, too. It would have been more scary if the map had just disappeared with no explanation. The slime was sort of chintzy too.
Granted, there were some heart pounding parts of the movie, but overall, "Blair Witch" doesn't live up to the hype.
