Book of Shadows - Blair Witch 2 asin: B00005NB8M

A few years have passed. The films that was called The Blair Witch Project, is spread around the world, and have make a whole tourism business in the little sleepy town were It all went down. There are guided tours, T-shirts and so on. A group of teenagers arrives and hire one of the guides. The start walking out in the forest, seeking the truth about The Blair Witch.

I like this movie a lot. Director Joe Berlinger have delivered a nice follow-up on part one. And even if it is not filmed in the documentary-dogma style, Berlinger still makes the hand camera to a part of the story.

The plot is great. All the questions. Who is the killer? Who is dead? Am I insane? Are you? Is it the witch? It's a story that constantly changes and at the end wraps up nicely!

It is fun to learn a bit more about the Witch legend as well. Those bloody little hand marks.

One thing about Blair Witch is that we still have not seen that stupid hag! This is nice for the Make-up budget, and shows that less can be more. I mean, the scariest thing in the world, is that thing in the shadows. The thing you can see. It is clever by the director to do so, because then it's only our own imagination that tells us how very scary the witch really is.

But in the same time, its kind of digging the own grave, because they cannot do another movie in the series without showing something of her. And by then we all have or own picture of her, and we all be disappointed, and hate the movie.

I recommend Book of Shadows. Blair witch 2.

I predict a huge flop on part 3.
