Truth be told I loved the original Blair Witch Project. Such a fun film really. This one had some promise; well...at least promise in my mind. Mix a goth girl and a Wiccan in the Blair Witch mix? That should have been a hit for me. And there is the seed of a good movie here, but it got lost somewhere.
Many of the actors are not great, but thankfully many of them got better. Jeffrey Donovan for example moved on to much bigger and better things.
The beginning starts promisingly enough and then the middle drags a bit. Again, there are all the elements of a good movie here, just not put together well. Like getting some furniture from Ikea, but not having the instructions.
I kinda like the mystery, reminds me of the first movie in that respect, but none of the claustrophobia.
While it didn't live up to its predecessor it was not as bad as I was lead to believe. Oh it was bad, just not awful.
NIGHT SHIFT and Old-school Content: So the Blair Witch Project, in any form, is great for a Modern Supernatural game. An ancient witch coming back to haunt people? That is great stuff.
The memory blackout is a good plot point and easy to do in a game, even if it can be a bit cliched.
