The Blair Witch
Project R
A bag of hot air and a load of hype
turned this amateur looking movie fright piece into a sensation, without even
delivering the goods in the end. Somehow, everyone seemed duped by the
documentary style ad campaign claiming it was real. Strange gaffs: How did that
camera battery last for over 14 hours? How did they get spares? How could they
really film and be freaked out at the same time? And when the woods don't
really scare some audience goers, how can it really be scary? Made for fun
parodies though, until a slew of dumb parodies came out. Review by Adam Browne
