As a kid in the early 90s I taped tons of horror movies from TV to VHS, so I was kind of used to the scary stuff. In 1999 I had just turned 16 and was finally allowed into the cinema to watch horror (16+). I'm from a small town without a cinema, so me and a friend took the train to the big city.
We knew nothing about The Blair Witch Project other than from the posters. It was surreal walking out of that movie, back into a bustling city where no one had any idea of what we had witnessed. That movie felt so damn real. No other visit to the cinema has been able to live up to that.
