Blair Witch catches a lot of flak, but I consider it one of the better horror movies ever made. It was awesome seeing it in theaters back in the day and they made a website to make it look like it was all real and the found footage was real. It’s a masterclass in tension. And made on a tiny budget.
The guerilla marketing around the film was absolutely genius. I knew it wasn’t real, but I was already immersed in the world for weeks before the release.
I was genuinely terrified at the end of the movie. We went home and I made my fiancé (now husband) watch Priscilla, Queen of the Desert with me so I could get to sleep. I had nightmares for weeks.
The Blair Witch Project gave me quite a lot of fear of dark forests, or lost places for that matter.

That is still the scariest movie I’ve ever seen.
