"The Blair Witch Project" was creepy enough to creep into your dreams; BW2 will just put you to sleep. And if ever a movie deserved to be slept through, it's this sequel.
CAUTION--SPOILER AHEAD!!
Director Joe Berlinger said something about his movie being a comment on cultural hysteria. It's clear that he was bothered by the popularity of the first movie and wanted to burst the bubble for everyone. He robbed Blair Witch fans of the freedom to suspend their disbelief, which is a really dirty trick to pull on audiences (and other film-makers). Berlinger's plot revolved around a bunch of college kids whose enthusiasm for the Blair Witch turns them all into maniacal murderers; he was making a Blair Witch version of "Reefer Madness".
