The Blair Witch Project created – or at least perfected – the “faux horror documentary” sub-genre and gave filmmakers a blueprint on how to make a great scary movie on a razor-thin budget.
Since then, many films have tried to copy the Blair Witch formula with varying degrees of success. The best known include Cloverfield, Spain’s [REC] and U.S. remake Quarantine, and most recently, Paranormal Activity.
