Totally, that's why there was never a 3rd installment. Think I actually have that documentary somewhere on VHS. But Blair Witch did launch a whole genre of it's own. Most of them are bad, but I thought "Quarantine" based on "REC", "VHS", "Cloverfield" (after the monster finally attacks) weren't bad and obviously "Paranormal Activity 1 & 3" (2 and 4 are kind of sucky) are all pretty good. Funny thing about Paranormal Activity though, when that was released, I was "Blair Witch" in a house? Damn! Why didn't I think of that, lol!
