Did you find the blairwitch project scary?

it was scary if you saw it when it was real, what i mean is the 1st month before the film came out they did a biography with fake interviews with the parents saying why they are releasing there childrens documentary. they even had fake newspaper articles online for people to see. so when you went into that theatre the 1st week or 2 it was scary because it was real... i remember walking out never wanting to go out into the woods, but sure enough 1 by 1 the actor's and actress starting showing up on leno... ahh disgust and i saw it again and i liked it but no longer was i scared.

I didn't find it scary at all. I didn't get why it's said to be so scary.

I did find the blair witch project scary, but I think that is because I love horror films and I wanted to be scared. It was an original idea ( well apart from the Last Broadcast which they ripped off) and also the marketing was good, I could see it for what it was , but as I said I wanted to be scared. It was very real, and was scary, I think you have to imagine yourself in the situation, and not be cynical. But of course not everyone is scared by the same things, personally I thought that the exorcist was frightening and extrememly powerful , but there were neds in the cinema who were laughing. I think it depends how you regard the themes in a piece of work, how they affect you and how you percieve and understand the ideas.

Yeah i found it scary, especially after spending sometime thinking about it. I think they should make a third installment even tho the second one was shabite there are still some good ideas and unanswered questions id like to see explored.

It was original, that's the only nice thing I can say about this piece of trash movie.

it wasn't original actually, it borrowed its much praised style from Cannibal Holocaust and Man Bites Dog.

i wouldnt call it scary but its certainly creepy.

i like the scene where the mother is talking about the witch and her daughter keeps trying to stop her talking.
i like the scenes where the campers are getting freaked out at night or finding weird things.
i like the ending.

i think a lot of people dont like it cos it isnt a big jump-fest or violent film. it relies more on audience thought and atmosphere.

as for the second one, its a shameless cash in but i though it had some good bits, even if it was a completely different experience from the first.

Call me crazy but i thought it was funny hehehe i blair witch 1 and the blair witch 2 haha

I agree with this. It isn't a film to make you jump out of your seat but it does start to chill you when you dwell on it. Also, nice use of backslang there Zombieman.
