About Blair the Witch

Narratives around the underlying conditions of documentary: We experience a completely different fascination when we are witnessing the lives of other people, even though these people seem to be living in the same real world as we do. In this film, the fascination is not only that it combines the conventions of the documentary with the rough feeling of realism produced by the camcorder, giving a fictional situation historical credibility, but also makes full use of the Feature-related...

Horror is about creativity

Maybe because I've seen "Death Live" and other similar pseudo-record themes before, I don't feel new to watch this again, and it's not as exciting as "Death Live" at all. Originally, the biggest suspense was witches, but at the end there was not even a shadow. Isn't this a hooligan? Maybe in that year (1999), it was an amazing work, and it had the lowest cost gimmick (but I don't think it was possible to spend that much money, the director was thinking about using this to hype it from the...

Fake Documentaries and Thrillers

"Pseudo-documentary" in English is mockumentary, which is a combination of mock and documentary, and it is often classified as a type of documentary or TV program. When used in a thriller, it will produce a more realistic horror effect. Since the 1999 film "Blair Witch" was shot with handheld photography and was a huge success, the technique has been imitated. Although the film was extremely low-cost and crudely produced, it was a huge success, in which publicity played a big role. The...

rough truth

I read "Introduction to Documentary" and talked about "Black Witch" "combining the conventions of documentaries with the rough realism of hand-held cameras", and I watched this film with a learning mentality.
I didn't expect it to be classified as a horror movie.
Seems like a lot of people find it boring.
Sorry, I am too.
So I think it should be a pioneer image in the history of film. Whether it is a documentary-like technique or a publicity done at the same time, it is a...

Why are witches so scary?

The title of the film is "Witch Blair", and the story revolves around her legend, but the mysterious witch never appears from beginning to end. This makes people wonder, is there such a person, and whether those legends have happened? Maybe from the beginning to the end, it was just a few protagonists frightening themselves, just like a child always feels that there are ghosts in the middle of the night. But what makes this film so terrifying.
The biggest feature of the film is the use of...

I watched 6 movies in one day yesterday, this is the last one, I have been seeing it faster. After all, it’s a movie from more than 20 years ago, so let’s not talk about the quality of the picture first. I think the meaning and form of this movie are greater than the content. The hand-held shooting has no inner taste as much as the rough picture, and the horror atmosphere is directly full. So last night I had a very long and real dream, all related to this movie. Three people explored the...

It doesn't feel good to watch it with three people... It will be more emotional when one person turns off the light at night and watches silently! One of the films with the highest revenue-to-investment ratio in history, and four stars are worthy of its...

Good idea, but it wasted. Even if it is a fake record, even if it is full of creativity, it is really hard to watch if it is not done...
