the only people who didn’t like Blair Witch are the people who don’t understand movies or like art. The people who like Paranormal Activity are the same kind of people that watch crappy movies like Avatar and say they are great even though they have nothing of value to add.

I like PA way better, so much more scary! in TBWP, the audience leaves you sitting there watching Mike stand in then the camera falls to the floor. THE END. I don’t think that’s a way to end a movie. i understood the ending, but i think it was just a dumb way to end a movie, especially when we’re dying to find out if Josh is still alive. in PA, we actually see something instead of noises, we see the girl being pulled out of her bed, the footsteps of the demon, and everything that goes on at night. not much camera shaking like TBWP. Personally, it doesn’t matter to me which movie made me feel like it could be real. It matters what scared me the most because they’re both just a movie. I think that the victims of the TBWP fight more than anything, and there’s not enough ‘witch’. Too much arguing, and i start to wonder when is this witch going to come out and stop making noises. PA had me jumping in my seat, and i wanted to keep watching to the end. it may have started out slow, but how else are the characters and their relationship going to be introduced to the audience?

Ok you guys are looking past the point, put yourself in tbwp and put yourself in paranormal activity, ok to me I feel like tbwp is scarier because these ppl are lost out in the woods and its dark at night and only a few of them, not much options there, in pa, yes it was scary but atleast they were able to control somethings and they were in their own house and they could have slept with lights on. I can’t really judge which movies better but tbwp is scarier.

I thought the Blair Witch Project ending was CREEPY. but not scary. I didnt understand the ending until like seconds after it happend. On the other hand Paranormal Activity was very scary. I never expected someone to get thrown at the camera. That part scared me so much.
