The Blair Witch Project

A groundbreaking entry in the found footage genre, this 1999 film directed by Daniel Myrick follows three student filmmakers who venture into the Black Hills near Burkittsville, Maryland, to investigate the local legend of a witch. As they delve deeper into the woods, they encounter increasingly disturbing and unexplainable phenomena. The film’s raw, documentary-style presentation and minimalistic approach to horror have made it a cult classic. Notably, it was produced on a shoestring budget and became a massive box office success. You can watch it for free on Soap2day.
