Blair witch project
"Horror. At the beginning of the film the viewer is informed that in 1994 three film-makers visited the Black Hills Forest area of Maryland, USA, to make a documentary about the Blair witch legend. They were never seen again, although the footage they shot was found, which comprises most of the feature itself. The film then shows, in cinema-verité style, what actually happened to the three as they gradually became aware that they were in danger although at first they could not tell from what" -- BFI website.

Die drei Studenten Heather, Michael und Joshua drehen eine Dokumentation über die Legende der Hexe von Blair. Nach Recherchen in einer nahen Ortschaft, gehen sie in einem Waldgebiet auf Spurensuche. Nachts wird die Filmcrew durch beängstigende Geräusche geweckt und von mysteriösen Symbolen in Schrecken versetzt. Nachdem der Kompass nicht zu funktionieren scheint und die Karte bald verloren geht, verirren sich die Studenten und verfallen langsam in Panik. Die nächtlichen Ereignisse wiederholen sich und spätestens als Joshua verschwindet, wissen die beiden Verbliebenen, wie ernst die Lage ist. (www.filmstarts.de, 1.4.11).
