I wanted more from this for WS because this is one of my fave stories and it could have really been a nice showcase for his considerable range.

#POCtober: The Blair Witch Project (1999)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D51QgOHrCj0

Directors: Daniel Myrick & Eduardo Sánchez
The most influential horror flick of the last 15 years, The Blair Witch Project single-handedly set off the whole found footage sub-genre avalanche. For better or worse, its style is still the most imitated in horror film for both big studios and indie contenders. Because its motif has been so frequent borrowed, the backlash over time has been to dismiss TBWP‘s success as a fluke. But it is one of the only important horror movies in recent memory that can claim anything much in the way of originality. In a genre crowded with rewrites and remakes and well-worn tropes this is an accomplishment that endures- long after the film’s ferocity has lapsed.

Housebound (2014)
Rima Te Wiata, Glen-Paul Waru
When she’s placed under house arrest, Kylie Bucknell is forced to return to the house she grew up in. Her punishment is made all the more unbearable by the fact she has to live there with her mother who’s convinced the house is haunted. Kylie dismisses her mom’s superstitions until she too notices unsettling whispers & strange bumps in the night. Kylie begins to wonder whether she’s inherited her mother’s overactive imagination, or if the house is in fact possessed by a hostile spirit who’s less than happy about the new living arrangement.
