Deeply appreciated by many and derided by others, this is one of the most frightening films ever made and one of the few really fresh and innovative originals of the 1990s.
With THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, American film-making seemed to have come full circle. In recent years we had become so bombarded with gore and gratuitous special effects that we'd almost forgotten how to be scared. This movie proves that the most terrifying movie experiences are those that happen not on the screen but in the viewer's imagination.
This film builds to a shattering crescendo of tension, with the explanation very logical, depending on one's interpretation. The road from unease through fear through genuine horror has seldom been so ably traveled, and if one's complaints that the picture is raw and technically crude are true, when have we ever had an experience like this one? On paper the characters were stock non-entities. The three actors--Heather Donehue, Michael Williams, and Joshua Leonard--humanize them. I've seen Oscar nominated performances that weren't this good. These performers go so far beyond "acting" that it's no wonder many people take this film for an actual documentary.
The final scenes in the movie are pure horror, and Miss Donehue's startling and moving direct address to the camera not only shows what terror can do to the human spirit but also points out how shoddy and derivative all the low-budget teenage slasher films that came before really are.
The highest compliment I can pay to this wildly successful film is that all those involved in its making deserved their success. But a happy accident like THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT isn't going to happen more than once, so I have resolutely refused to see any sequel, prequel, or ripped-off variation thereof. |
