Was The Blair Witch Worth Finding Again?

March 6, 2017 by Bill Leave a Comment

We recently rented Blair Witch from director Adam Wingard & writer Simon Barrett, as we really enjoyed their previous hits You’re Next and The Guest. We missed this reboot at the cinema as also like the original 1999 film The Blair Witch Project, it is a found footage movie.

Chihuahua with rental copy of Pete's Dragon

We watched Disney’s remake of their 1977 film Pete’s Dragon, as they continue to bring us live action reincarnations of their classic films, following the success of the Jungle Book, with reports that Dumbo and the Lion King are to follow. Now whilst reboot/remakes are horrific when they take on films you love and are nowhere near as good, for us we would include The Fog; … [Read more...]
