The Blair Witch Project Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Switching back and forth adds to the feeling someone actually did find both the cameras and their contents a few years later...
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
The scariest shots, from someone's little Hi-8 camcorder, document the students losing their bearings, giving way to panic and finally falling victim, though off screen, to some ineffably, unphotographably evil presence.
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
Whenever night falls, the movie takes off, but in a slow creep, with all your childhood fears of the dark suddenly revealing themselves as absolutely reasonable.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
The very crudeness of the film stock and technique contribute mightily to the feeling that things are out of control, disoriented and possibly subject to unnatural laws.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
You can dismiss The Blair Witch Project as a trick. Or you can give in to the treat and savor that rarest of accomplishments in a field notorious for tedium and repetition -- an original horror movie.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
The thought that Blair Witch Project just might be real makes it much scarier than any of the teen horror flicks that have stumbled along in recent years.
Washington Post
Lloyd Rose
The Blair Witch Project" is the scariest movie I've ever seen. Not the goriest, the grossest, the weirdest, the eeriest, the sickest, the creepiest or the slimiest... Just flat out the scariest.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Using the most modest means, Sanchez and Myrick manage to tell a compelling story, create recognizable characters and hold our attention even when there's literally nothing on the screen.
Baltimore Sun
Ann Hornaday
This terrifying ghost story is guaranteed to haunt filmgoers long after they've persuaded themselves that it's only a movie.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
I have seen the new face of movie horror and its name is The Blair Witch Project, a groundbreaker in fright that reinvents scary for the new millennium.
The New Yorker
David Denby
A cunningly conceived and crafted exercise in suggestibility and terror.
AV Club
Keith Phipps
Sanchez and Myrick's film knows that what's not seen frightens more easily that what is, and that the imagination's thoughts of what might have happened generally horrify on a deeper level than knowing what did.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
This one could be too scary even for your teen.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Bob Longino
[A] creepy tale of witchcraft, murders and ghost sightings.
Newsweek
Jeff Giles
Heather's shaky video work can induce motion sickness -- it looks like combat footage as she bolts through the woods -- but just try turning away.
Slate
David Edelstein
I could tell you the story -- give away every detail -- and The Blair Witch Project would still freeze your blood.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
The viewer never glimpses anything more than the shadow of a clever movie.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
What gives the film much of its force and its mounting sense of queasy uncertainty is its narrative method, which ensures that we know no more about the proceedings than the characters do.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
Where is the suspense? Where is the involvement? Where is the identification?
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
If you can handle its unconventional approach, you won't feel as if you're seeing a film so much as witnessing a living nightmare.
