Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

This stands well on its own. You can enjoy this and never see the movie. How well done is it? Well ... When all of this first started playing out, and "The Blair Witch Project" was being promoted, I saw certain things about it all that, because it was all done so well and because I wasn't paying that much attention, well, I thought it was REAL. Now thats a compliment to both cast and crew. They brought it off in a very real fashion. I think that watching this in conjunction with the Blair Witch movie is a real entertainment treat. As far as frightening goes, and coupling that with a building tension that I would compare to "The Red House" of the 40s, this is wonderfully wicked fun.

You have to wonder how this propaganda to promote "The Blair Witch Project" ended up being better than the movie that spawned it.If you are going to see the "Project" see this first it is very entertaining and makes you almost believe that the Blair Witch is real, until you see the movie which destroys any illusion of reality.

I only saw the film that this mockumentary is about today (see the comments in the comments page of the actual film). I believe I watched this on our Canadian equivalent of the Sci Fi channel, called Space... in the summer. I was tired that day so I fell asleep during some of it. At that point in the hype of the film, I was trying to find out if it was indeed fact or fiction, and I wasn't certain yet, so it did disturb me somewhat while I watched it, thinking, my God, what if this was real? I quickly learned after the credits rolled that there was no disclaimer to say that it was fact or fiction. The only thing I had to comfort me is that I don't live anywhere near there, so it couldn't happen to me. Although... we do have lots of woods here so it did bother me slightly. Later, I learned that the whole movie and mockumentary was untrue, so it set my mind at ease. Once I found out there was minimal gore, I decided I might give it a shot when it came out on VHS, but only during the day on a smaller screen, so as to lose that "thrust into it/real feeling"... though I chickened out the first time when I went to rent the last one at Blockbuster... I despise horror films... but someone bought it and decided to show it to some friends and I, so I thought, what the hell. (See my comments in the comments section of the film for more.) I can't tell you in which order to watch the film and this. You have to decide for yourself. Maybe you should see this first for a background story. After watching the film, I am still left with questions. I guess I wasn't paying as much attention to this, or the beginning of the film, as I should have. However I wouldn't recommend finding out exactly how either this or the film was made or it could somewhat spoil it for you. Just be glad that it isn't true and watch these, and enjoy them... if you can.

I thought the documentary was okay except for the fact that the interviews with the murderer were totally unconvincing. They just taped some guy then made it black and white and tried to add scratches, it's too bad aside from the fake scratches that the picture was totally crisp. Other then that it was ok.
