I loved this one, but I don't think it holds up on repeat viewing very well. The first time I saw it, I thought it was damn near perfect - scared me as much as any film I've seen in my adult years has. But on repeat viewings, the characters become more annoying and other flaws become apparent.

The Blair Witch Project is a unique entity to itself. Loved by horror fans, despised by almost everyone else. I had the pleasure of being thrown right into the middle of the whole fiasco. I saw it when it was first released at a small arthouse theater in Seattle. It was quite the experience. Then, when the movie blew up, the theater I was working at had it on 6 or 7 screens. It was sold out for almost a week straight, and I've never seen the general public have such animosity towards a movie. Normal movie goers and even casual horror fans despised it. Many were calling it the absolute worst film ever made.
As far as Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows goes, I seem to be in the minority when I say I absolutely loved the film. The backlash it gets is almost akin to Halloween III. I think if the filmakers would have simply called it Book of Shadows, it would have went over a lot better.

It was more of an event film - something that demanded the communal effect of watching it in the theater. I loved it when I saw it, but it falls flat on television in the confort and safety of your own home. I'd love to see this one get a rerelease on its 10th anniversary - 2009

Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2. I saw this yesterday and feared for the worse; I didn't actually like the Blair Witch Project, but was surprised that I actually liked this one - a whole lot better. The only problem with it is that it was a sequel - I think it could have made it as a stand alone flick, without the curse of the tag - sequel, hanging around its neck, which is why I've never watched it before. If I had the choice to watch either of them again, (for the purests out there) sorry but book of shadows would defineately be my number one choice.

i thought it was a pretty spooky movie, more so because you never really see it which makes it creepy.
