The best horror movie for decades.

Rating: Null/10 (28 October 1999)

Obviously, it's difficult to say anything original about THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT but two things impressed me. First, in horror movies victims are often portrayed as bringing their fate upon themselves (like the promiscuous teens in FRIDAY THE 13TH) but the trio in this film are just having some fun and generate a lot of sympathy. Secondly, the final image and the way this only works if you're paying attention during the initial lighthearted phase.
Absolutely brilliant: 10/10
