For those who don’t know, the film– derived from a slim, 35-page screenplay – tells the story of three student filmmakers who venture into the forest to shoot a documentary about a local legend known as the Blair Witch. Twenty-two years since its release and the story will still keep you up at night. No horror list would be complete without The Blair Witch Project – and as of summer this year, it is finally on Netflix. A disturbing but simple premise makes for a cult sleeper hit that stands the test of time, time and time again. Things slowly but surely build to a horrifying crescendo. Liv Tyler and Scott Speedman star as Kristen and James whose stay at a remote vacation home is interrupted by a knock at the door.
It’s become increasingly rare that a horror flick will actually stick with you past the credits but over a decade later and The Strangers remains as terrifying as ever.
