Summary written by Kevin Overstreet {GrndZero23@aol.com} Three film students set out into the Black Hills Forest to make a documentary on the legendary Blair Witch. Armed with a 16mm camera, a Hi8 video camera, and a DAT recorder, every step, word and sound is captured. After wandering around the Black Hills Forest, Heather, Josh, and Mike are cold, lost and hunted. Finally, one night after the last ray of light had left the forest black, they were never to be seen again. One year later, a bag full of film cans, DAT tapes, and video tapes were found. The behind the scenes, video footage and the film, are cut together, and this is..."The Blair Witch Project." Summary written by Michael McCaffrey {apollo@chariott.com} Heather Donahue, Michael Williams and Joshua Leonard, student filmmakers, set out to shoot a documentary about a local legend, the Blair Witch. In the forests near Burkittesville, Maryland, many children have vanished in the 1940s and people still avoid going too deep into the woods. So, the party sets out to look for facts that prove the legend, equipped only with two cameras and a little hiking gear. First, they find little piles of stone that must have been arranged artificially, later, they have to admit to be lost in the woods. Eerie sounds at night and more piles of stones in places where they have not been before cause the already desperated group to panic. And one night, days after they should have been back home, Josh disappears completely. Only what has been recorded and filmed with the cameras is found a year later and shows what happened in the woods. Summary written by Julian Reischl {julian.reischl@usa.net} Il film è il montaggio delle sequenze girate con un 16 mm. e con una videocamera da tre ragazzi nel bosco di Blair nel 1994. I tre si erano avventurati per cercare tracce del mistero della strega del bosco. Non erano più tornati e, l'anno successivo, erano stati trovati i loro attrezzi, ma dei corpi nessuna traccia. Tutto realmente....inventato ! I tre sono vivi e vegeti, anche se hanno davvero trascorso otto giorni nel bosco per filmare ciò che si vede nel film. Ma tutto è stato studiato a tavolino dai due registi, che hanno montato una campagna pubblicitaria, utilizzando anche abbondantemente Internet, la "verità" del terzo millennio.

Comment: All I have to say about this movie, is the ending will stick with me forever, I get chills just thinking about it. The images and sounds of the distant screams and children laughing are so haunting. The Blair Witch Project is an instant classic! I would never want to be alone in any woods ever. The believability of this movie is intense, the way it was done was perfect, If you haven't seen it rent it now!
