When _The Blair Witch Project_ burst upon the cinematic scene in 1999 it was an unspeakable breath of fresh air because it deviated away from the conventional creepers that marched to the same old boo-enhanced beat. Sure, _The Blair Witch Project_ certainly was not blessed with the most creative screenplay nor could anybody definitively state that the acting was convincing to the point of no return. Nevertheless, the genuine shocks were ideally realized due to the execution of this little indie terror tale that managed to sell a morbid mystique that translated into a gory goldmine at the box office.

In this one its made for people with no imagination to run wild and the difference is self apparent. Stay away. The premise just doesn't work for the new generation's tastes.

39/100 Twenty years after his sister (Heather from "The Blair Witch Project") goes missing, a guy rounds up some friends and goes looking for her. With 20 years to prepare for it, you'd think they would have made a better film. Contrived and, at times, totally ridiculous, all the movie does is use the utterly stupid actions of a bunch of completely unprepared characters to try and scare you into believing it's a good movie but ultimately it just belittles the original. Very disappointing. -- DrNostromo.com
