Despite the creepy, intense ending, this was a pretty unimpressive horror movie. If you want a good scare on hand-held camera, go with Quarantine. Parents: If you have a sensitive teen, they may be scared by this creepy but (in my ponion) dull horror movie. There's also nonstop strong, vulgar language. Bottom Line: No need to rush out and see this horror film. Thanks for reading! - Movie Man

This horror film is filmed like a documentary, so the enhanced realism makes it even scarier. There are some jump scares and scenes that may be too frightening for younger viewers. There is almost no violence, but some scenes may be disturbing and the film maintains an intense atmosphere throughout. There is a lot of aggression and emotional tension.

Okay. To start, I do NOT think that this movie should have been rated R. A definate PG-13 movie. I know that there is 152 F-Words, 52 S-Words, and about 300 other profanity words, but think about it. You get lost in the woods and crazy things happen to you, I dont think that you would be saying apporopriate words. Sure, they could have toned it down a few notches, but hey! Anyone ages 10 and up would use that language in that kind of situation. The violence is nothing and the drugs issue is quite heavy. Everyone is going crazy because they don't have cigarettes, one person is pressured into taking shots of Scotch, and someone asks for some marijuana. This movie will frighten people 13 and under so no need to worry, and the rest of the movie is PG material!

I will start off by saying that the film is NOT true, but the filmmakers did an extremely great job of making it believable that it was (if you don't believe me, look at the end credits, it will say the 'this film is fictional' jargon). I'm quite insensitive to horror films; I love Saw, A Nightmare On Elm Street and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre mostly for the depth of characterisation. I didn't think that this film would scare me as much as it did and the reason for that is purely because it is a very psychological film. The legend and backstory behind the Blair Witch is conveyed extremely well and since you are seeing the situations through the eyes of a video camera and three terrified teenagers, it just really gives it that edge. I don't think that there is too much swearing, because in all honesty, it accurately portrays three extremely frightened teenagers which would be doing that in that situation. As the events which happen to them get worse, it shows progressive worsening states of mind, with the female of the group, Heather Donahue, doing the famous confession scene on camera. I first watched this when I was around 14 years old; I'm now 18 and it is still a film I cannot watch at night. If you have had children that were not particularly bothered by watch Paranormal Activity, The Exorcism of Emily Rose and The Number 23, then they will probably not be frightened by this. It really does depend on the person; many people I know were not one bit terrified by this. As further warnings (WITH SPOILERS), there are some quite disturbing scenes, for example, hearing children laughter at night, the disappearance of one of the teenagers, a package arriving outside the tent and a freaky finale.

I really liked this film! It was scary and thrilling without being over-the-top bloody and gory. Yeah, the language is bad, but who cares? Newsflash: TEENAGERS CURSE. The actors did a fantastic job; they were really convincing. I highly recommend this movie!

I think the reason a lot of people went to see this movie is because they thought it was based on a real story; I thought it was. When it was being advertised, it was never really made clear (I think a tape and book was even put out later that told more about the 'true story'.) Since it is made up, it's not that wow of a movie; there's a lot of jumpy camera movement, which some people may find annoying. The ending is confusing; you are sitting there saying (maybe shouting) "What's going on?" and then it's just over. That said, there are some scary parts if you use your imagination, such as when they are in the tent and *something* is outside, crawling around. I put age 13-16 but I would say 15 years and older for this movie.

The Blair Witch Project is an absolute classic in the genre of horror, its also absolutely terrifying. Though its mostly dull and there is a lot of talking, it definitely provides the scares in several scenes. The only complaint I would have is the level of language. Now they are young and dumb teens that definitely do their share of cursing, but the film doesn't need as much as it had to get the point across. There was no sexually explicit profanity, but there was a bit of violence-some terrifying violence. Nothing gruesome. In my opinion this is a must see for all horror fans and is an absolutely scary film that hold nothing back in the chilling conclusion.

its a good movie but some bad language and some terror violence and scary music and an intense scene at the end
