My grandma died in 2021. To this day, I remember what she had to say about the original Blair Witch movie, when she caught a screening on cable tv.
"I saw a movie yesterday. They labeled it as horror and thriller but it was just boring. It followed some teens walking through a forest. They found some weird signs and began to scream. The movie ended with nothing happening it all."
To this day, I have never seen a Blair Witch movie myself and only played the video game that was released a few years ago. I found the game to be quite interesting, atmospheric and creepy at times.
It is interesting how Horror and movies in general reach audiences in many different ways. That is why I stopped actively recommending stuff. Because I don't want to waste people's time with things they might not like.
