Blair Witch did not scare me at all in the theater. Later, after I got home and was left alone with Spooky and the 'Fraidy twins...
None of it means a damn thing.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I always liked the Self-Made Critic's review of Blair Witch.
Event Horizon is still a crap movie, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I know a lot of people find it very scary.
I did. It's one of my favorite moviegoing experiences. It's nice and creepy for a while, but the last ten minutes or so are really intense. And when the credits rolled, I realized my right hand had gone numb because I'd been clutching my wrist with my other hand the whole time.

Ha ha ha! That's perfect.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Blair Witch scared the bejesus out of me. I loved it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Blair Witch made me sick to my stomach, so I had to leave the theater during the scary part.
Same thing for Dancer in the Dark. Stupid handheld cameras....

Blair Witch freaked me and my sister out completely when we saw it in the theatre, but I have no desire to see it again, due to the suspicion I will no longer be freaked out but annoyed.

It sounds like The Ring. I was freaked out while watching it, and then the feeling disappeared almost instantly as soon as the credits rolled.
I also couldn't watch Blair Witch due to shaky-cam.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was freaked out while watching it, and then the feeling disappeared almost instantly as soon as the credits rolled.
I was the reverse. I didn't start being made uncomfortable by The Ring until about 20 minutes after the movie ended, almost entirely about what the mother did to free her son.

I was freaked out while watching it, and then I was even more freaked out being in a dark, quiet house.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
My computer's sluggish and I don't have the patience to page through the whole list. Would someone please tell me what was #1?
