Blair Witch Reviews

The Best Blair Witch Film yet that will be looked at in the future as a great footnote for found footage horror movies.

| Aug 7, 2023

Takes the franchise back to its roots with its filmmaking foundation, trading in the subtleties of that debut film for abject terror for a roller-coaster ride of a film.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 12, 2023

A few neat ideas and effective jump-scares might entertain audiences, but the film feels like too little, and more than a decade too late.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 11, 2022

To quote B.B. King, "The thrill is gone."

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 18, 2021

Its stabs at uncanny were mainly retreads, and uncanny cannot, by definition, feel familiar

| Jul 2, 2021

I was let down in some aspects but it did really recover nicely.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Apr 29, 2021

Horror heads will admire the craft Wingard employs in his Blair Witch take.

| Apr 9, 2021

Blair Witch's final third actually made me say "yuck" out loud and question why I was spending my life watching this movie. In a good way.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 1, 2021

Blair Witch is entertaining, which will please audience goers not old enough to remember the year 1999.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 3, 2021

Blair Witch passes the sequel test by making a good case for its own existence while preserving the primacy of the original. And, oh yeah, it's damned scary too.

| Jan 5, 2021

For someone who remembers the first film, Blair Witch feels as an attempt to put a fresh coat of paint on a classic

| Jul 9, 2020

My first questions were why does this need to happen and what does it bring to the table?

| Original Score: C- | Jul 2, 2020

If you're looking for some good scares, and a cure for the Sequel-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named, "Blair Witch" does a decent job on both fronts.

| Jun 29, 2020

Once the housecleaning is out of the way, Blair Witch pulls out all the stops and delivers some of the finest horror filmmaking I've ever seen.

| Mar 31, 2020

Loud noises and shaky cameras don't replace a plot, and Blair Witch doesn't have one. It also lacks the fresh documentary feel that set its predecessor apart.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 3, 2020

Blair Witch is a valiant effort to recreate the original's alchemy, but it's no substitute for the real thing. Whatever that is.

| Jan 14, 2020

Things naturally play out as expected - both for the black couple and for everyone else involved, a disappointingly pedestrian outcome for a reboot of such a landmark film.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 8, 2020

Hyper-stylized to a fault, testing the viewer's endurance for being thrashed by an abrasive sensory onslaught.

| Original Score: 2.25/5 | Jul 20, 2019

Ask yourself: do you feel like watching another 90 minutes of The Blair Witch Project? Your answer will tell you all that you need to know about Blair Witch.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jun 7, 2019

Barrett and Wingard did interesting things with the legacy of such a beloved piece of horror cinema.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | May 6, 2019
