Ten Years of The Blair Witch Project
Wow. I remember a cubicle I had at one of my old jobs that I hung a piece of teaser art for The Blair Witch Project (the one on your right, as a matter of fact) in, which always got a lot of attention from fellow co-workers who had heard about this supposedly “found footage” of a group of campers who run afoul of the titular woods-dwelling hag.
I can’t believe that was a decade ago already, but indeed it was; 2009 marks the ten-year anniversary of The Blair Witch Project, and I expect we’ll be talking about that a lot during the year. Out friends over at Rotten Tomatoes just dropped a line to us with a heads-up about an exclusive behind-the-scenes video from the making of the film, as well as a brand-new interview with directors Eduardo Sanchez and Daniel Myrick.
Check out the video below, and click here to read the interview, which goes into what it was like to both make the film and live in its aftermath.
Like I said, I’m sure we’ll be hearing more about 10-year anniversary celebrations for the film all year long. Don’t be surprised if it starts getting theatrical play again either!
