If you like conventions, you are always going to be troubled by a movie like The Blair Witch Project - as it breaks just about all of them.
The ambiguous, inconclusive ending (are the screams from Josh? who or what could convince a man to stand quietly in the corner of a room while his screaming friend is attacked? is this force supernatural... or something else?) demands work from the viewer, and does not sit well with those who like everything tied up safe and sound by the end. Remember, what we are seeing is footage as it was supposedly "found" - we know as much as the authorities do, and probably a little less than the unfortunate students.
The sounds and images from the film stay with you, long into the night, when you want to forget it.
