Title: Better than the original? No...but pretty darn close
Review: First of all, I loved The Blair Witch Project. It was my favourite film of 1999, and naturally I was quite excited when I heard about the sequel. Book of Shadows is a masterpiece, pure and simple. It doesn't quite surpass the orignal, but that doesn't matter. This film was totally bashed by critics and fans alike, but I don't understand why. What did they expect? A candidate for Best Picture? While this film won't win any awards, it's still extremely satisfying. If you're a fan of the original, you will most likely enjoy the sequel. Even non-fans will find a rather enjoyable movie.
