Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 [Import]

So if you hated the first film, you probably would like this one! because it is nothing like the first crappy movie! Tho if your a fan of the first movie, youll probably hate this one!

This movie is not shot like on an amatuer camera, like its pethitic first movie did, that movie that claimed was a real story, and then admitted it was not, just to make money!

This film is about a couple of people who loved the story of the Blair Witch so much, they meet through a web site, and go on a maiden voyage trek out to the Blair Woods to find the place where the events happend from the movie! They find themselves then not remembering what happend the night they partied out in the blair woods, and try to remember what happend? but they have been touched by the Blair Witch, and delusions play on there mind! and the story gets intresting from there on.

It might take a second time look to understand some parts? as it tends to skip from an event taking place afterwards, and then showing what happend after that, and then all coming into place in the end! But once you figure out how there presenting this and what the cut to one part to the other is , its easier to follow.

In all, I think this is a great film! But as long as your not one of those people who loved the first film, and want to put this one down for not beeing done the same way, they you may actually enjoy this film! But its not for all tastes. I'd recomend a rental before thinking about buying it?!

Not much to say about the bonus features, there not worth checking out, and unless you like the music that is in the film? then the flip side, dual disc, of the soundtrack isnt worth a listen to! The score is pretty boring to me. But some of you might have other opinions about that?

Rent it at least before dissmissing it.

A few years after that night, sure, I can still watch this movie, but it's with a grain of salt. The documentary aspect of the original has vanished. Gone are the wobbly cameras and introduced is the epitome of Hollywood messing with a good thing. If you're looking for a TRUE sequel, this isn't it. It's more like a movie that was "inspired by" The Blair Witch Project.

It is the strictly fictional (which is not misrepresented) misadventures of a group doing a Blair Witch Tour that was inspired by the hordes of people who flocked to Burkittsville, MD after the original movie came out. The characters are cookie-cutter. There's the requisite Gothic girl whose black clothing and penchant for eyeliner scare the local hicks, the requisite girl who gets naked on film, the requisite psycho guy who's just trying to stay out of the mental hospital and then the other two characters who, despite the fact that one of them has an intricate role, fails to really make a lasting impression.

It doesn't seem like anyone really tried all that hard to make a movie with staying power beyond the $8 you paid to see it. It is a total B-level movie that made B-level money with a B-level cast that just so happened to have A-level promotion and an important name to live up to. I had heard before this movie came out that they were to make a prequel film as "Part III". Judging by the fact that Blair Witch 2 brought in a meager $28 million (compared to the original's $140 million), I doubt that is a possibility at this point. It's probably better that way.

It's an OK movie with nothing in particular to add to the original. It would have stood better on it's own as a cheap, straight-to-video thriller. At least no one would have been disappointed.
