A Disappointing Continuation

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Boring, very boring, very very boring. no horror no camera quality (obviously the theme is not relative) but it needed to be in HD camera atleast if you're not showing the original footage.I remember I saw a movie "A Question mark" an indian movie which was based on this "The blair witch project"... But let me tell you "that remake is a way better project (obviously you won't see it as that's in other language.Anyway my main review is "I thought about it when I saw donnie darko and american psycho, But now I've decided not to believe imdb rating and viewslist".

I agree with another reviewer. This movie is soooo boring, it's just these 3 people wandering around the woods acting scared. You literally see nothing happening, just some moments where you think something is going to happen but then nothing, back to the 3 people being scared and breathing and crying into the camera. The hype for this movie is really when it was thought to have been based on a "true" documentary. Otherwise, it's really just pointless amateur video recording like the ones you do for drama class. I think "Naked and Afraid" is way more exciting, and I've never seen it, it just has to be because this is the most boring movie EVER.

I'm never going into the woods again. But apart from that it was a good film.

I just cannot understand why anyone likes this film. The whole premise of 'found footage' genre is flawed, for example, would you still be holding a camera and filming if you were running away from someone or something? One other film that uses this genre is Cloverfield and I cannot get over the fact that you would be fleeing from a so called monster (that you never really see properly by the way) and still filming! Think about it - would you really be doing this? Also, surely the whole point of cinema is photography, how things look, putting images on screen, with The Blair Witch Project most of the film is in darkness, you can hardly see anything most of the time, what is the point of film in this case? If the screaming and whining is scary (I just think it is highly annoying) to you, it might as well have been broadcast on the radio. One of the other reviewers stated that without BWP there would not be other found footage films, this is probably true, but that is nothing to be celebrated! The only one of the found footage genre that I find remotely scary is Paranormal Activity and I think that in this case it works, because the scary in this film is supposed to be a ghost, something we can't necessarily see, and there are static cameras around the house, which you may have in your home for security reasons, this makes the premise all the more acceptable and believable. The cameras just happen to 'catch' or 'capture' unusual events or happenings as they occur. I must admit I was scared by these movies and the addition of times and dates made the films seem more real like it had actually happened. I am not knocking BWP for being low budget, there have been plenty of excellent low budget movies over the years, eg I don't think Jaws or Halloween had very big budgets, BUT I would like something to see for my money! Personally I think people fell for the hype, it was a very clever marketing ploy by the makers of this film to pretend that the Blair Witch legend was real and even that the found footage was 'real' and not a movie at all, more of a documentary! Please do not remake this film in 10 or 20 years time, once was enough!
