I'm torn on the Blair Witch Project. On one hand, it's a good concept that, at the time, hardly ever got used. They did it right, and they made a metric shit-ton of money on a movie that cost, by industry standards, next to nothing to make. There are valid reasons to show love for the Blair Witch Project.
On the other hand, it's just so fun to make fun of it. There are environments in which it's an effective movie, but in any other environment, it's just goofy. And I loved the joke about it on Family Guy. "Ok, they're in-they're in the woods...the camera keeps on moving...uh, I think they're-they're looking for some witch or something, I-I don't know, I wasn't listening. Nothing's happening...nothing's happening...something about a map...nothing's happening...it's over. [looks around] A lot of people in the audience look pissed."
