So Jeff takes them to the ruins of Rustin Parr’s house, they camp for the night having placed cameras all around them & get really drunk. A group so annoying that you’ll hope they all die within the first 10 minutes of meeting them. His next group consist of Erica, Kim, Stephen & his pregnant wife, Tristen.

Some, like Jeff, take advantage of this seeing an opportunity to make money selling cheap tack & offering tours in the local areas where it was filmed. Burkittsville has become a haven for the freaks of the world to descend all believing there is some truth in the movie much to the annoyance of the local townspeople. Instead the plot is based around a group of people fascinated with the film & the mythology surrounding it. The second thing you’ll notice is that the original movie was just a movie here. It’s not a problem for me & I find it much more watchable because of this although it put many fans off straight away. Gone is the found-footage style (actually a relief for me) replaced with a more polished, special effects based movie. The first thing you’ll notice about Book of Shadows is the style in which it is filmed. Ok, maybe a bit more content…so let me explain. This review can be summed up in these words: Don’t watch this movie, you’ll regret it. Well congratulations, not only is this a terrible film but it also managed to pretty much kill dead the franchise before it even really got started. Who was asking for a Blair Witch sequel? At what point in the original did anyone think ‘Man, I can’t wait to see what happens next?!’ A desperate need for more money, that’s what brought this terrible excuse for a horror movie to life. …and the award for the least asked for sequel in movie history goes to: Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2! *cue rapturous applause*
