The film is about three student filmmakers who go hiking on their quest to find more information about the so-called Blair Witch in the Black Hills of Maryland. Heather, Joshua, and Mike disappeared, but their cameras were recovered later. Let's remember the best 'The Blair Witch Project' quotes.

The horror movie came out in 1999, with a marketing campaign that stated that the actors were missing or had disappeared, which worked perfectly as audiences flocked to theaters after receiving accolades at the Sundance Film Festival. It earned an estimated $250 million worldwide from a small budget of less than $200,000.

The story itself follows Heather, Joshua, and Mike as they set out to record a documentary on the local myth of the Blair Witch. They hear a story about a hermit, Rustin Parr, who committed heinous crimes. The students also get several warnings from people in town; a fisherman tells them that the forest is cursed, so they shouldn't venture.

However, in typical American horror film fashion, the young adults don't listen and go into the forest, encountering several indications that the Blair Witch may actually be real. But there's never a clear answer, which is what made the story so compelling. Read these 38 'The Blair Witch Project' quotes.

It's obviously time to revisit this movie and see if it's just as scary as it was in 1999. Tons of other found-footage horror films have come out since then, so audiences have easily become desensitized to the subject of demons, witches, monsters, and more. Not many people are scared of "things that go bump in the night" anymore.

But if you love the genre, check out these "The Exorcist" quotes that remind everyone why it's still the most amazing horror film of all time. Meanwhile, "The Conjuring" franchise has become one of the most respected in the last decade, so take a look at these Ed Warren quotes. If you don't like these films but you know that everyone faces demons every day, these quotes are the best.
