In this episode, we’re afraid to close our eyes and afraid to open them with the 1999 ultra-indie horror THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT.
After debating the validity of the movie’s extremely low budget (2:21) we begin the case for keeping it on the pedestal with the authenticity of all the performances (15:12) and how Blair Witch Project’s “found footage” format still holds up (22:27). We’re then split three ways on which lead each of us liked the most (27:18). We move on to the case for knocking it off the pedestal with Pops first confusing the hell out of Shane with his “Late 90s Ennui” movie theory (32:21). We then get into which parts elicited more groans than scares (45:12), the inconsistent reactions throughout the film (48:47), and argue over whether or not Heather is one of the most annoying movie characters of all time (51:46).
