It *is* a bloody spooky film, I agree! What is clever is just how much work was done to convince the general public that the footage they were going to see was authentic. Was it Sci-Fi channel that did a documentary on the history/legend of the Blair witch, the story of the missing students, the camcorder found, and a lead up to the film itself? A spectacular ruse as it had many people convinced for a while.
I will be honest here, I was sucked in, right up to almost the end but I couldnt get it out of my head that, in a state of sheer terror and panic, the camera guy WOULD have chucked his cam down and run like hell. How could a guy hold onto his camera, while running away from something that was obviously pretty darn scary and bent on harming - surely?? This thought alone kept intruding on me as the footage neared the end. But the ending.... oh the ending! It rammed shivers up and down my spine - sheer, delightful, nasty stuff :D
Shame there were credits at the end!!! :confused:
