this is one of the first horror movies that actually scared me. classic

It’s too bad people think they are too cool for this movie. It was a unique sensation then and is still great now.

Genre defining classic! A perfect movie for it's time... Groundbreaking, eerie, spooky, scary, shocking! BUT - The crew deserved better!

Ngl, I thought it was real footage and was amazed and nervous but it’s not. still amazing film and it’ll keep you on the edge of your seat.

The night scenes are fantastic, the day scenes made me want to blow out my eardrums.

Impressive how it builds intense fear and uncertainty without traditional horror visuals

The Blair Witch Project freaked me out in the best way. Super creepy vibes and clever camera work make it a must-watch for horror fans!

First of its kind, this movie paved the way for many more, good and bad. I’m not normally terrified after movies, but I was with this one.

One of the best found footage films if not the best

The OG found footage movie holds up exceptionally well. The marketing for this movie was ingenious too.
