Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2
Directed by Joe Berlinger
In documentarian Joe Berlinger’s (PARADISE LOST) only foray into fiction filmmaking, a group of BLAIR WITCH PROJECT superfans visit the woods where it was shot. But after Stephen, his wife and their freaky friends spend a night camping, their surveillance tapes go missing. When they find them and watch them, that’s where the real terror begins. Ghostly visions, satanic orgies, and horrific hallucinations that may be real all play a part. Recut by the studio against Berlinger’s wishes, BWP2 received an undeserved critical lashing, and remains ripe for reconsideration.

This movie doesn't need to exist. It's very y2k coded so there's that nostalgia for you if that's what you're looking for.
Definitely misses what the mark the first film set. However, it’s still fun to watch and have on as background noise.
Better than it has any right to be, and probably not the sequel you're hoping for if you liked BWP1. I enjoyed the meta-narrative of it all and Donovan Jeffrey is always entertaining.
Ok so. I actually really enjoyed this movie, but it should've been its' own series instead of trying to ride on the hype of the Blair Witch Project. I think the plotline and concept would've been a really cool movie series on its' own, so I can see why fans of the first Blair Witch movie would've been upset considering this's nothing like it.
Say what you will about me, but I love this movie. Nobody wanted to see a bunch of kids lost in the woods again so they built upon the first one. I liked the story, the mood, the characters were great, the girls were hot, and the soundtrack rocked. For the past 25 years this has been one of my top return to comfort horror movies.
