The Blair witch, well, she was more looking like a monster than a witch to me but hell, I don't care, she still looked awesome. Was just expecting a bit more of a classy witch I guess. I just didn't understand the fact, that the witch won't hurt you if you don't look at her and how the guy knew that in the first movie. It felt a bit forced to find an explanation why this guy was looking the wall.
After all it's just my opinion, I still enjoyed this movie very much and nearly shit myself in the cinema when James was running inside the house :D

It takes some looking into the lore of the witch and Rustin Parr to understand the standing in the corner deal. They tried to develop it because that was a huge question mark at the end of the original. Rustin Parr, the killer, would take two boys to the attic to kill them, he would stand one in the corner because he didn't like them looking at him while he did it. Rustin was possessed by the witch I believe so it only makes sense that it was the witch who preferred the victims to look away. Its a loose thread but its there. Lol.
