Are you wondering just exactly who the Blair Witch was? What the Burkittsville, Maryland, legend was all about? Or what exactly fascinated student filmmaker Heather and what possibly took her, Mike, and Josh from this earth? Get all your background questions answered by Curse of the Blair Witch, a one-stop-shopping "documentary" originally produced for the Sci-Fi Channel as a tie-in marketing tool. 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. Curse may in fact freak you out more than the movie, and it evokes the great, pulpy In Search Of series of the '70s, one of the prime inspirations for filmmakers Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez. News clips of the search for Heather, Josh, and Mike lend a vérité atmosphere to the proceedings, but shed little light on their mysterious disappearance or their characters. Basically, it's a tease to go see the movie. Still, The Blair Witch Project provided only ever-so-slight information on the legend that haunted the forest, so you'll want this cleverly constructed mock documentary to supplement your knowledge of the film. --Mark Englehart

The ending was kind of messed up and too short, but the movie as it progressed was intense, sad and very well-filmed.
I know that it's just a movie and it turned out to be just that, a movie but it was good for what it was.
4 stars.

Remember that guy or girl in your school who refused to listen to the Top 40 radio stations not because he/she didn't like the music, but because too many other people liked the songs and that alone made them "corporate trash"? This is the film made for him/her, and only that type of person. If this describes you, then buy a copy tout de suite so you can watch it in the company of others. After watching, if they are people who actually watch films in order to be entertained, they will ask, "Why do ... Read More

You either love or hate it. I'm more in the love ... well, like alot camp. I like ghost stories and ghost movies that don't have blood and guts splashed all over, and I think that's why this movie appeals to me so much. It's the unknown, the dread, you can hear the creepiness but can't see it. Very much liked the characters (okay, at times Heather really got on my nerves) and the concept ... go into the woods to film a witch story, and the witch doesn't like it. Also enjoyed the filmmaking technique. ... Read More

Three students went into the woods to film a documentary. A year later only their film was found, the student film makers disappeared. This film shows what happened when they investigated the legend of the "Blair Witch". Various people tell their stories about past murders. Care is taken to make this film seem amateurish and unedited. The descriptions of deaths set the tone of fear. The three students appear to be lost. And very clueless. The rain falls, the students babble about their fears. Then they walk ... Read More

Hype, hype and more hype.
Foolishly I bought into it like everyone else.
Sorry folks but the movie is unwatchable, unmemorable, and just plain boring.
Here's a tip, if you're ever lost in the woods. Don't walk in a straight line. You end up following your dominant hand, and end up walking in a complete circle, as the characters did in the movie.
In the movie there was a small stream, if you're lost you follow the stream as it will eventually lead to a larger body of water.
Oh yeah, ... Read More
