Just flat out the scariest. The Blair Witch Project isn't a horror film experience on par with 'The Exorcist' or 'The Shining,' but that's not a fair comparison. It's an experience all its own. [The Blair Witch Project is] the most effective and unsettling horror movie in quite a long time.
`The Blair Witch Project' is not a typical film that the typical cinema-going public would normally be exposed to. The camera-work is jerky, the dialogue repetitive and inane and the action virtually non-existent.
