		The Blair Witch Project is somewhat influenced by The Bell Witch legend, a series of disturbing and allegedly inexplicable, real events associated with the family of Adams Station, Tennessee (Robertson County) settler John Bell, between 1817 and 1821.
		Like the "Blair Witch", legend has it that Dyer was driven from her burning home in the middle of a winter night after being accused of witchcraft.

		explains the mythology behind the Blair Witch legend that these students were supposedly investigating: In 1785, a woman accused of witchcraft is banished from the village of Blair, Maryland, and a year later, her accusers and half of Blair's children vanish.
		First of all, the "facts" behind the Blair Witch legend are apocryphal.
		The legend of the Blair Witch was invented by the film's writer/directors, Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - The Blair Witch Project
		The Blair Witch Project is a horror film that doesn't rely on a psycho killer or a genetically enhanced sea creature to scare you.
		Blair has a minimalist look, partly because most of the film really was shot by the actors playing the film students.
		Hard core horror buffs may not find The Blair Witch Project terribly frightening, and we'll admit there weren't many scenes that had us ready to jump straight up in the air, but the slow, certain manner in which evidence of an evil something in the woods comes to light is unnerving.

	The Blair Witch Project
		The premise of Blair Witch is sadistic in its simplicity.
		Blair Witch is wisely short on explanations, but when Heather dislodges a pile of rocks early in the movie, it’s hard not to think that we’re being played for suckers.
		Blair Witch is much more successful as an experiment in naturalism than it is as a horror film.

	The Blair Witch Project (1999)
		It'd be one thing if BWP scared you if you didn't know if it was fact or fiction, but the fact that the movie works even when you know it's fake and know the secrets of how much of it was done stands as testimony to the high quality of their efforts.
		Strangely, Artisan have decided to present BWP in a fullscreen ratio but not actually fullscreen; the film is "windowboxed," which means that a small fl box borders the image on all four sides.
		BWP was filmed partly on Hi-8 video and partially on 16 millimeter film; in case you're confused, the Hi-8 is color and the 16 mm is fl and white.

	The Blair Witch Project
		Blair Witch is a refreshing breakthrough, a horror movie based on the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.
		The movie is a series of diminishing circles--the town of Birkettsville (formerly Blair); the circle they walk in the woods; the inside of their tent; a last view of a square foot of floor; then darkness.
		The viewer must engage with Blair Witch; there is so little to the story that the viewer must provide his own fears, his own experiences in the woods, to fill in the blanks.

	The Blair Witch Project. A Hollywood Jesus Visual Film Review.
		You refer to the legend of the Blair Witch as a "true historical mystery." Actually, the entire legend was created and spread over the internet by the filmmakers over a year before the movie came out.
		And I think the Blair Witch Project is another example of that same "pendulum" swing back toward an appreciation of the power of the natural over the impact of the special effect.
		BWP is scary at times but knowing it's not real when it tries to look real makes it harder to suspend disbelief.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT
		THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT ($30) is probably the most effective experimental film that I have ever seen, and without a doubt, the most successful movie ever made for less than $25,000.00.
		Taken at face value, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT is a movie comprised of the recovered documentary footage shot by the three college students who mysteriously disappeared in the Maryland woods, while making a film about a local legend known as the Blair Witch.
		THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT was shot with a color Hi-8 camcorder and on 16mm fl and white film stock, with both sources being cut together to create the film’s narrative.

	Flak Magazine: Review of The Blair Witch Project, 7-20-99
		The Blair Witch Project is cut together solely from the footage they shot, found a year after they vanished.
		One scene that stands out is early on, when the students are interviewing a Burkittsville mother about the legend of the Blair Witch, which, it should be noted, gained its bogeyman notoriety through stories of snatching children.
		The Blair Witch Project will have a long life on video, and although that may seem appropriate given the film's low-fi origins, it should be seen in a theater, preferably one that's at least half-empty, and preferably without any previews beforehand.

	CNN - This 'Witch' boasting wicked marketing brew - July 27, 1999
		Shot like a documentary, "Blair Witch" is a fictional account of three film students who head off into the Maryland hinterland to investigate the centuries-old tale about a witch who over the years has been blamed in several gory and unexplained murders in the area.
		Greg Hale soon joined the project and the trio eventually headed to the Maryland woods with their three actors (Heather Donahue, Michael Williams, and Joshua Leonard, who lent their names to the project for authenticity) and shot the film.
		Ask a 20-something about "Blair Witch" and they might tell about a friend of a friend who thought the film was real.

	Blair Witch Project
		In an August 31, 1999 NY Times article on "The Blair Witch Project" and "Sixth Sense", another blockbuster horror movie, Robert Sklar, a New York University professor on the editorial board of the left-wing film magazine Cineaste, speculated that its popularity might be driven by unease about the millennium.
		The young film-makers probably did not have this history in mind when they sat down to write the scenario for "The Blair Witch Project," but for as long as humanity has considered its environment, the forest has often appeared as some kind of hostile force that needed to be subdued.
		It is appropriate, therefore, in such mythology for a witch to reside in the forest since such a creature not only represents defiance of civilized Christian values, but a belief that we are part of nature ourselves.

	THE BLAIR WITCH CONVICTION PROJECT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
		The point is not to interpret Anthony Charles Lynton Blair's usurpation of British democracy and creation of a tawdry, obese, otiose monarchy with a House of Lords that is a haven for croneys.
		Both Signor Berlusconi and Ill Duce Blair have used the politics of fear, and the constant tear gas of "the war of global terrorism" to bully their own peoples.
		They are disconnected because Anthony Charles Lynton Blair believes he has a divine right to do whatever the hell he wants, no matter how many times we tell him, or yell at him, that we want him to leave us all in peace.

	TheMovieBoy Review: The Blair Witch Project (1999)
		This is the title card that appears at the start of "The Blair Witch Project," a film made on a microscopic budget by first-time writer-directors Eduardo Sanchez and Daniel Myrick that probably caused more of a stir with audiences than any other motion picture that was showcased at this year's Sundance Film Festival.
		Also, unlike any other film I have ever seen, "The Blair Witch Project" is constantly shown from the point-of-view of one of the characters, since the movie is made up of the footage they filmed.
		To see "The Blair Witch Project" is not to simply watch it, but to experience it.

		What it appears to be: The picture is about a film crew of three young people (Josh, Mike and Heather) with the mission of documenting the legend of Blair Witch.
		Heather is the director and project leader, she drives the crew.
		I have high praise (and envy) for the conception of the "Blair Witch Project." The filmmakers took a great idea, lied a little, and made a motion picture out of a bunch of sticks and very little money.

		For those of you who were under a rock when it first hit the cinemas, The Blair Witch Project tracks the doomed quest of three film students shooting a documentary on the legend of the Blair Witch from Burkittsville, Maryland.
		I was previously hopeful that The Blair Witch Project was going to spell an new dawn for low budget horror films that relay more on it's own story line and solid acting than it does on special effects and Hollywood stunts, but I guess not.
		The Blair Witch Project tells the story of a group of people that go searching for the legend of the witch, and find themselfs lost in the woods.

		Entirely fictionalized, Curse of the Blair Witch focuses both on the past and the present, with copious info on the Blair Witch myth as well as on the disappearance of Heather, Josh, and Mike.
		As it turns out, the original witch was one Elly Kedward, who was accused in 1785 of taking blood from several children; she was subsequently banished to the harsh winter woods and left for dead.
		Her grisly and bloody legacy involves missing children, polluted water, disemboweled men, and a serial killer of children who claims to have been haunted by "an old woman ghost." Aside from some ineffective "newsreel" footage of the serial killer, all this intriguing information is presented convincingly and chillingly.

		The Blair Witch Project brings horror back into theaters at a time when most "horror" movies are displays of gory special effects or self-referential humor (as in the Screams).
		For now, though, the legend of the Blair Witch has left its mark, and the film industry will ever be the same again.
