The Blair Witch Project/YMMV

• Epileptic Trees: Fans have gone on for pages and pages debating what is attacking the main characters in the movie.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: At one point, Heather asks "Where's the weed?" When her actress, Heather Donahue, dropped out of acting, she got work as a legal grower of medicinal marijuana.
• Hype Backlash: Although by most standards it is a very good movie, people expecting to be given heart attacks on the spot might be disappointed if they've heard too much about it.
• Narm: "Yes, Erica, they're my tapes!"
  • "I swear to Christ!"
• Paranoia Fuel: Try going to the woods after watching this movie and not feeling like something's watching you...
• Sequelitis: Rotten Tomatoes gives the first movie a 85% Fresh rating and gives the second movie a 13% RT rating.
• Special Effect Failure: A special variant of this occurs in the 'extra found footage' sometimes called a deleted scene. It's supposedly part of the documentary footage, but it's much clearer than the film in the original footage, and the actors really don't look like they've been under the same physical circumstances they were in during the making of the film proper.
