I guess if we are to believe that The Witch uses humans to kill her victims, it has to be someone we haven’t met. They are killed by something or somebody else. She then uses Lane to terrorize a new group of campers, but James and Lisa aren’t killed by Lane. She uses Rustin Parr to kill a bunch of children and uses Josh to kill Heather and Mike, if you believe one fan theory. Humans Do the Killing – The Witch’s modus operandi is to use a human to do the killing for her. It WAS there for a while, because it had been there since 1940.Ħ. They were also shifted back in time to Rustin Parr’s house and their footage was later discovered buried in the ground, as if it was there for a while. The same thing happened to Heather and pals. So the video really shows future events of the group, when they were thrown back in time to Rustin Parr’s house, since it was burned down in 1940. Lane and Talia find the timewarped video and give it to James. The End is the Beginning – It’s clear that the YouTube video James saw is from Lane’s camera, and the footage shows future events. They never do find her, but it’s clear that the timelines are crossing over, shifting and sending the group back in time.ħ. If this is the case, that’s really a strange use of the timewarp. The strange thing is, the reason the group went in the house to begin with was to find out whose light they saw upstairs. Who knows how long he’s been there, but it’s apparent from his beard, he’s been in Rustin Parr’s house for a while. He chases the group around and tries to kill Lisa.
Divergent and Convergent Timelines – Talia and Lane separate from the group at one point and Lane eventually diverges into his own timeline, where he claims he is being controlled by The Witch. When the characters get separated, they get stuck at different points in the timeline, and the events really get strange.Ĩ.
It might be that the crackling and breaking noises at night are the woods physically shifting around them. They use a drone to scout out where they are, but it doesn’t show them anything, only the endless, “changing woods”. So they sleep overnight and I think they then get stuck in a time warp. It’s a Supernatural Place – The characters explain some of the “lore” behind the cursed Black Hills as they camp, and they talk about how you have to stay overnight in the Black Hills to be caught up in the mysterious supernatural strangeness. Honestly, I thought the reason why Heather and gang ended up in the same place in the original was because somebody was messing with their compass, but it’s apparent that The Witch is doing the manipulating in the new movie.ĩ. The kids walk around and end up in the same place, but this time director Adam Wingard turns it up to 11 by adding endless night, unusable GPS, and strange time warping. The same thing happens in the 2016 version.
#Blair witch 2016 monster movie
This is an important aspect of the movie which is never explained. They walk South all day and end up in the same place. It’s a Time Warp Again – Honestly, I thought the original used the ‘lost in the woods’ motif to great effect. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a bad movie and it still repeats all the beats from the original, but there’s something else going on which I think is too hidden from view to save it from the public backlash and bad reviews.ġ0. I guess that’s my fault in trying to get a review out quickly based on what I saw at the movies, but now that I’ve had time to think it over for a few weeks, I think I was really too harsh on Blair Witch. The movie opens September 16, but keep an ear out for reactions from Comic Con tonight.I gave Blair Witch (2016) a standard review, but there’s a lot of other things going on in that movie I didn’t give it credit for. It turns out that the lead in The Woods, err Blair Witch, is the little brother of Heather from the first movie, which didn't invent found footage but which totally popularized it and made it a dominant aesthetic in horror this century. Lionsgate then unveiled a new poster and a new trailer, which you can watch below. The truth was outed tonight in San Diego, where the film played to a Comic Con crowd who became the first people to learn the secret (which is revealed really early in the movie, so this isn't even a spoiler).
See, Adam Wingard's latest movie, The Woods, is actually a Blair Witch Project sequel called simply Blair Witch. That was the name that Lionsgate gave it when they first debuted a trailer and an early poster, but it was all a fake out. Adam Wingard's latest movie, The Woods, is not actually The Woods.
