Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

strike-1995 Can't catch lightning in a bottle again by throwing more money and a cgi monster at it.

Davis P I love the original 1999 Blair With Project film, it is one of the scariest films made in my opinion. The way in which they made that film was very good, it was pretty simple, yet effective. This one is still very scary and an effective horror film. I enjoyed it and was actually creeped out by it. They used the a lot of the same techniques with this one that they used in the original. My favorite technique that was used again was the no eerie background music. Silence can be a lot more effective when trying to create a scary atmosphere. it keeps you more on edge and it stokes fear. I also liked the actors, pretty good casting decisions. Some of the scenes were inspired directly from the 1999 film, but they weren't point by point exactly the same. I liked the way they were done, and I liked that they added a couple little glimpses of what we are supposed to be fearing, they didn't show us, just showed a short glimpse of something. I don't know if people just didn't like that they remade this film or why it was very poorly received. I think if you just look at it as a horror film and forget that it's even a remake, you'll enjoy it. 8/10 for Blair With.

LovecraftLass After hearing that the movie filming under the name of 'The Woods' was really Blair Witch, I was very excited to see it. I loved The Blair Witch Project and I even love it's sequel, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2. Despite it's generally poor reception Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 was a decent enough follow-up to The Blair Witch Project. It certainly would have left a better legacy than the confused mess that is Blair Witch.It starts out bland and goes downhill from there. The characterizations vary between flat and outright annoying. In a bizarre stroke of laziness the character of Lisa is the only one to even be given a last name. There will probably be unmarked spoilers from here on in because Blair Witch is so confusing that I'm not even sure what would be a spoiler and what would not be.They take all of the mythology from The Blair Witch Project and instead of building on it they strip it, make their own and throw the rest out of the window. Much to the detriment of the movie. Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 at least tried to make a different statement but kept the core mythology intact.Every cliche from every found footage horror movie is certainly on full display here. Annoying personalities that clash? Check. Stupid decisions at every turn? Check. These are common tropes in horror but Blair Witch ratchets them up to eleven.The one thing Blair Witch manages to avoid is the eventual found footage argument about why they keep filming. They get around that by using earcams (that stay remarkably hair-free). Of course that leaves them plenty of time to argue over even stupider stuff. Like their drone. It's established early on that it's useless but when it becomes stuck in a tree it's the end of the world.The camera work is so jerky and choppy that through the second half of Blair Witch it becomes practically incomprehensible. Presumably scary things happen but they go by so quickly that it's hard to even make out what happened. I have a feeling that they intended to use the drone footage more than they actually did. If it was cut, my guess would be because it made theater goers ill. I don't usually have a problem with motion sickness (I was fine in the first Blair Witch) and the drone shots made me a bit queasy. I'd be curious to know if anyone else had a problem with it.A 'creature' appears near the end but it's unclear from the movie whether or not it is the Blair Witch or not. I have heard that on the commentary the directors claim that it is not the Blair Witch and that the clues are in the movie. If anyone figures it out, please let me know. I'm not watching it again to find out. All I could tell from it was that it looked rather like a skinny, mossy Ent.If you want a good found footage horror I'd go back to The Blair Witch Project. It at least had some effort and creativity behind it. Hell, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 for all of it's faults is great cinema next to the convoluted mess that is Blair Witch.

jbrbsmom The first Blair witch had a low budget and was very watchable because the plot was good and the theme was interesting.For this to have a five million dollar budget, all I could think was where did th money go?? Certainly not into production, makeup, screen writing, acting or script. The script is literally scream people's names over aand over. My all time favorite line: " I hear there are tunnels, like maybe the Underground Railroad went through here or something" and it just gets WORSE.I couldn't even watch it it was SO boring. If you can watch a woman crawl through dirt with a camera for half An hour, go for it. YOU try to get a plot out of that....Five days of night??? Really?? Just don't even do it.
