hahaha nice OP

>>78916316
the witch is actually the woods.
this thing is just some random monster they put into the movie because they thought the audience is too stupid to be scared by something as stubtle as being lost in the woods.

>>78916360

>he believes Wingard post release

He changed his tune when they noticed people took the piss out of this shit design

Stupid

the original was shit anyway who cares

>>78916909
wrong

>>78916765
have you seen the original? the movie is not about some monster. the 'blair witch' is just a name for an entity that is believed to be living in the woods, when in reality it's the woods themselves that are evil.

>>78916947
That's literally never implied in the movie Jesus Christ just stop posting anytime.

>>78916316
The "there is no witch" angle is far more interesting. Shame.

>>78916947

the original is one of my favorite horrors of all time.

i just think the point of blair witch project isn't about what's causing it. it clearly operates outside the rules of reality. that's literally all that matters. it makes no difference if it's a witch or if it's the woods or whatever.

I don't think Elly Kedward was ever an actual witch. I think she was just another victim of whatever evil was already there, like Rustin Parr

>>78916947
the woods are cursed by a real witch. that is stated directly in the movies.

>>78916981
well, the movie never makes it clear what's actually going on.

>>78916947
So you could say that the blair witch is just a meme?

this movie wasn't about the blair witch. it's literally about aliens.

Not him, but there's more than just the movie. There's an entire mythology outside of the movie that's canon.
https://tubitv.com/video/302809/curse_of_the_blair_witch
Also, there was lots of information on the website.

How long till they remake Book of Shadows? I'd like to see them do a Cabin in the Woods type thing with it. It has a ton of good ideas but it's shit.

It wouldn't be bad if they didn't do the whole alien bullshit ending.

>>78917049
>>78917076

that's the real genius of the original. we literally see nothing for the entire movie. the unknown is far more scary than some stupid witch monster.

>>78917249
he's talking about the stupid light outside of the cabin. looked like straight out of a x-files alien abduction episode.

>>78917313
oh yeah, that was in the trailer. Made me think of the x-files as well, when Mulder is in that factory / mine in the second season I think.
Is there a link to a theory on that? could save the movies for me, I hated em both except for when that girl was snapped in half. That was a cool vfx shot.

>>78916316
Kinda crazy that every death is shown on screen in this movie and it's still less intense than the first one. Doesn't help all the deaths are lame as shit (tree falling on a guy, chick falling from a tree, people just getting grabbed and pulled off camera). Best kill was shown in the trailers.

You don't see anything in the first one. Hearing the guy screaming in the distance is so much more effective than showing him actually getting his teeth pulled out.

looks like the took something from the original design

>>78917396
I sincerely believe they were just making shit up. the original is way too subtle for a modern audience, so of course we had to have a monster and our characters literally being trapped in a neverending night alternate dimension with random spooky stuff going on.

>>78917396
I think they were showing how the witch could manipulate time. When the couple gets lost earlier they say they've been gone for days even though it's only been like an hour. I took the flashing lights as a rapid day/night cycle.

>>78917504
>chick falling from a tree

what was it with that thing she pulled out of her leg? went nowhere and was never explained.

Blair Witch sucks anyways so who gives a fuck

>>78916611
Fucking lol is that supposed to be scary?

I think I watched 10 minutes of the new BW and then turned it off.

That's fucking stupid. What scared people originally was that it was an unknown entity. Especially the end scene for people who paid attention in the beginning.

Giving it a face doesn't make it scary.

>>78916909
wong

>>78917614
that scene made me cringe

>>78917049
What if that's just a legend people made up to rationalize the weird shit that happens there and to warn people to stay away?

>>78917291
I'd fucking kill for a movie that's literally just Ash running around killing things with a GoPro on his head.

>Look guys, I found this video. I think it's my sister, she might still be out there!
>Bruh...it's been 20 years, do you think she's been living in the woods for 20 goddamn years?
>Yes!
>Ok, let's go, we're all on board with this.

That was weird as hell. And the movie sucked shit too.

>>78917109
Really though do you guys think they switched it to the Blair Witch angle at the last minute before release? Because honestly when the trailer came out and the movie was titled "The Woods", it seemed like a completely different movie.

>>78917504
>chick falling from a tree
Not gonna lie, the build-up to that was intense as hell.

Too bad I didn't give a shit about what happened to her.

>>78917506

Think that was just designed by Todd McFarlane for merchandise sakes

>hey remember how we never actually showed the monster or spirit or whatever the fuck was attacking these people and how they made the movie great?

>Yeah?

>Well lets show the monster this time, and ruin any mysteries around what it is!

All I remember from this movie is the black guy looking at the confederate flag then at the camera. "Like seriously?! It's the current year." Then he fucked a white woman.

>>78916576
>>78916645
They tell a story about the original town thinking a random lady is the witch and instead if killing her they tie her up in a tree and tie boulders to her arms and legs and keep her like that till she dies on her own.

>>78917819
They went with him because one girl wanted documentary footage, the black dude was his bff, and black dude's gf tagged along and was apparently good at drone stuff(?). But yeah the protag was retarded

Reading this thread the new movie sounds like fucking shit, and the more I read the shitter it becomes and I want to watch it even more.

>>78917947

I'm probably the oldest anon ITT.

The original film had one of, if not the first, online viral campaigns.

They uploaded short clips of people in the woods, documentary style. They also had the Blair Witch website which was just one page with the Blair Witch symbol and some nonsense.

The media claimed it was dangerous, and there was even a police investigation into the clips+website.

>>78922103

The movie isn't that old, stop acting like you're special.

I'm watching this now and I'm fucking pissed how much of a dump they're taking on the original

yes. it's the best pleb filter because it's not like artsy or pretentious like a lot of other pleb filters. it's a pleb filter because it's ambiguous and plebs get mad and confused because nothing is explained or revealed. anyone who knows the first thing about films should be able to watch this and understand why it's as good as it is.

The original does set up that it could be multiple things that would explain everything but does keep it vague and interesting enough that you can say that there is something after them or one just went crazy being lost, or any other kind of theory.

>>78924188

pleb filter?

more like fake kino generator

everyone who watches it and "appreciates" it ends up thinking they're elite horror critics. it's like when a 12 year old watches 2001 and thinks they're film buffs.

Especially since those screams only happened at night and apparently came from every direction.

The sound quality being so vague and shitty in the original also worked well in its favor, the new one was so crisp that it constantly reminded you this is a professional movie with actors.

>>78916316

Well considering all they did was whine that nobody watched the movie and spitefully refused to answer any questions because they weren't getting a sequel, I'm liable to disagree.

Fuck those hacks.

the scene in the original where the guy is facing the wall freaked me out when I watched it way back when

>>78922659
God yes, that meta shit pissed me off so much.

What that one anon said about making shit up is true: the leg root, the time distortion, the voodoo, the pointless climbing of the tree, the goofy tall monster, the lights, the pointless scene in the tunnel, the shittiest twist of all TIME, etc.

Some of those are good ideas, but together it's just one big mess of unintelligent fuck you that could have been any generic horror movie. In fact, it might have even worked better as The Woods and you could play an angle where these woods have a bunch of traditional horror elements all combined, and that's where people get their lore from.

>>78916611
Why does this look like an action figure that's stuck in a tree? Like, the proportions are way off.

This is literally why The Blair Witch is one of the best horror movies ever made. It's a real scenario: you're lost in the woods. Then rednecks start fucking with you and probably mean to rape and kill you, meanwhile the whole reason you are there in the first place is to investigate supernatural phenomenon, but the movie never steps out and explains what's happening. Even the climactic last scene could be supernatural, or hick murderers. The sequel clearly didn't get that, or thought it wasn't marketable and just made a trashy monster flick.

>>78926566

I interpreted it as spoiled children with a complete ignorance of nature panicking and having psychological meltdowns when put into an environment where they couldn't sit in a heated starbucks and make tumblr posts about how much they hate white men.

The Blair Witch is the fear and paranoia in our own minds.

>>78926473

According to director Wingard and writer Barret:

>They never intended to show the witch
>They were too dumb to realize that anything you show is going to be interpreted as the witch and people are going to be annoyed about it
>James and Lane were originally going to debate the origins of the witch to show that nobody truly knows how an urban legend is supposed to play out (even though Lane and his girlfriend basically did this anyway.)
>Again, never occurred to them that people thought they would show the witch
>Start to tease they showed a bit about how the witch gets her sacrifices to keep the huntings going, but then
>Admit they're "never going to make a sequel to explain any of this shit."
>There's hidden subplots you have to know the occult to understand (yeah ok.)
>The tunnel was a real set piece the actress was trapped in between her stunt double and the camera man.
>Only CGI in the film was touchups to the backgrounds. The monster is apparently 100% practical (yeah, ok, bullshit.)
>Peter never died, but he's stuck in the house because no sequel.

>"You know what, you're not going to get an explanation for these lights. Because you didn't come see this movie opening weekend, so now you're going to have to fucking wonder what's going on out there."
>"No Sequels. No Answers."

>>78926584

>>78926632
I really don't get why people say it's bad. I find it downright terrifying at times but love that it also has a strong message about faith and perseverance.

>>78926687
Never needed a sequel, but almost anything would be better than revisiting the origins of the witch. That's honestly one of the least interesting Blair Witch pitches that could be thought up.

>>78926703

While certainly stylized, the basic premise is so believable: seemingly-normal and friendly people talk to you in broad daylight for a bit and then just...don't leave. And then it turns out they want to torture/kill you, and it's too late for you to stop them. Frightening thought.

>>78928108
some production intern lurked /x/ and told them some retarded story he remembered and they put a reference to it in the movie somewhere

>>78917219
That was a mistake. You were supposed to see the witch in the movie but it didn't make it on film.

>The Blair Witch was supposed to be seen in the movie. As the characters were running out of their tent, Heather yells, "Oh my God, what The f*** is that? What the f*** is that?" The cameraman was supposed to pan to the left were the audience would briefly see a woman wearing a white gown in the distance. But the cameraman forgot to pan to the left and the scene was not reshot.

Also, the movie was originally twice as long as it was now - the first part was the movie we see, the stuff in the woods. The second part was a mockumentary detailing how the footage was found and made into the movie we saw.

In the canon of the movie, the footage of the kids was found in 100 year old dirt that had been untouched, under the foundation of that old house they were in.

The second part of the movie was removed, cut up, and put onto the original website of the blair witch project to hype up the movie a year before release. You can still see some of the old clips on the old website from the 90s. It's quite neat.

The whole point of the movie is that there IS something supernatural hunting them out there but budget, circumstance and ingenuity made them make a movie that was a little cleverer than normal.

Same anon here; did a quick search, am I supposed to be watching this music video?

>>78928291
Yes.

>>78928136
>There are lots of "high brow" horror movies but they're all arty and shit
Name some and show everybody how big of a pleb you are

>>78928237
Yeah I liked that too, might be worth watching the original. It's shot for shot the same as the remake but its naturally sort of grittier and low budget and foreign which gives it a spookier vibe IMO. The guys in the remake just look like the creepiest fucking dudes that its kind of obvious

>>78928315
Samefag again. That was pretty neat! I liked the track a lot too, gonna have to hear some more. Great rec my man.

>>78916316
pretty spoopy 2bh be honest with you

>>78928347
Jacobs Ladder, Eraserhead, Rosemarys Baby, Exorcist, Posession, stuff like that

I mean I can enjoy and get spooked by that type of thing but with Blair Witch it's authentic, grounded real life horror unlike anything else

It really grinds my gears that considering the fuckload of found footage movies BWP inspired not a single one of them even tried to be as authentic and believable.

>>78928397
It's not quite a shot for shot remake... the US version is almost 10 minutes longer.

There's also some stuff that's different between versions.

One line that's left out of the US version is when Paul looks at the camera during the knife/prayer game and says something like "why stop now? the film hasn't even reached feature length yet."
I'm not sure why he cut that out of the movie.

Funny Games is one of my favourite movies ever.

>>78928397
Yeah I've watched both--actually didn't even know about the fact the U.S. one was a remake until like two years later. I still usually show my friends the U.S. one just to make it more accessible for them.

>insert 'Amerifats can't read subtitles' joke here

>>78928492
Why do you like it so much? I mean I enjoyed it but there was definitely something I was missing, I didn't/still don't get what the director was trying to convey with the fourth wall stuff beyond "violence is too glamorized in movies"

Maybe that is the whole point? Not necessarily a bad thing, I agree with the message

>>78928482
It's cheap to make and easy to sell, so people making FF don't really have to work on constructing something actually intelligent and with quality

>>78928586
First, I like it cause its unique.

Second, it subverts many tropes and the viewer's expectations in almost every way.

The director's point was with us not really the violence. The movie is not supposed to be enjoyed... its not intended to be a horror film, either. It is intended to annoy and upset the average person who watches it. His point is that you are watching this family get tortured and you can save them any time by turning it off, but you're too focused on being entertained and waiting to see what happens because its a movie, even though you hate it. This is why Paul keeps talking with you and making bets... this is why the people are killed in the order they are... this is why there are games... he knows you're watching, and he's only doing this stuff because he knows you're still there.

I just love how nicely everything fits together and I love why he did everything.

>>78928482
The Thing is better than all of those

So if this isn't the the witch

What is it

>>78926883
They are both desperate attempts to make the series relevant and they are both shit.

>>78927161
>skinwalkers

explain.

>>78924188
It's not good because of the vagueness, it's good because of what it omits (death footage) and doesn't force down your throat. LOST, Prometheus, and whatever Lindelof touches apart from that are vague pieces of shit because it raises mysteries and never solves them. Blair Witch just has the witch mystery, and the horror is implied to be because of the witch. The end where they face the wall was reminiscent of the earlier story with the children getting killed, the loose ends were tied up (save for the tape eventually being found). It's not high brow, it's delivered in such a way that its creepiness and horror are at their maximum. I like it cause it's not pretentious as fuck like foreign artfag shit or things are intentionally left out of an otherwise normal plot (like post-Lindelof Prometheus). Kids, teens, and retards may not like its slow pace or the fact that you have to pay attention to get the full effect.

>>78928261

so skinwalkers.

>>78928176
Damn, that was good.

>>78930223
rakish creatures with a keen feral intelligence known to stalk, kill and wear the flesh of anyone unlucky enough to cross their path and parody their movements, voice and sometimes even behaviour

>>78916316
LOOKS LIKE A PAPER MACHE DYEL LANKLET

JUST PUNCH IT IN THE FACE

You have to have faith in order to be religious (because there's no evidence for any religion) but you can have faith in other things besides religions.

>>78924575
underage just by the way you type

>>78916645
I read somewhere that it's meant to be Heather, on the argument that the witch kept her as a slave the same way she kept that child killer guy during the first film.

Doesn't explain why she looks like that though.

>>78921844

Kek

>>78916316
i thought this was supposed to be someone that got possessed and turned into some kind of forest goblin

In the original there is no Blair Witch, it was all a ruise so that the 2 guys could lure the chick deep into the woods and kill her.

Watched about 40 minutes worth via a LP; is RE7 just "The Evil Dead meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Game"?

>>78916316
Looks like it's trying to reach out to the children in the early 90's by rapping about good community morals and doing your homework.

>>78931070
Well he's not wrong, the MC was way too nonchalant about killing his girlfriend and then getting his hand chopped off.

>>78932370

This is the simplest explanation.

t. RE6 fan

>>78921844
ayy

>>78926644
I don't believe that they intended for that monster not to be the witch. I think they just backpeddled hard when they saw how much the fans hated that they showed the witch. Why have the story in the beginning about how they heard the Blair Witch was tied to the tree and stretched her limbs out if the monster with elongated limbs wasn't the Blair Witch? They're retards if they didn't expect every single member of the audience to think that was the Blair Witch. If they hadn't told that story in the beginning of the film then it'd be a different story.

>>78933053
Pretty much

the ayys and the witch are 2 different things you fucking idiots

>>78933053

sounds like a fun game desu

>>78934583
Sure thing, Adam

It's only a matter of time before hollywood catches on

>>78916316

Weren't she described as being covered in hair/fur and levitating by that crazy woman in the original?

>>78916316
>>78916611
>>78917506

Can't really dig these types of designs. It's like they try way too hard to make it scary and it looks more like some sort of rpg monster instead

>>78916316
Remember all the shills creating threads about this movie before it was released? Well, I was one of those shills. I got paid $100 bucks by Room 101 to create one thread per day on here. I don't know how many we were but we must've been at least 10 people on here getting paid to do it. I just want to say I'm sorry. The movie is by far the worst horror film I've seen in recent years. But I needed the money.

>>78937289
Where can I sign up for shill position?

>>78937289
Lies. There's no shills on this place
