The Blair Witch Project Is Being Released In Its Original Format.

Watch The Blair Witch Project the Way It Was Meant to Be Seen

The Blair Witch Project is finally being released in the way its creators always intended.

The 1999 horror film will soon be available on home video in its original format, as announced by Mike Monello of Haxan Films, the production company behind the movie.

The movie was originally shot using Hi8 video and 16mm black-and-white film, but because theaters at the time couldn’t screen video, it had to be converted to 35mm film through a process called telecine.

Unfortunately, when the movie was later released on home video, distributors didn’t use the original digital master but the lower-quality 35mm version.

This caused issues like motion errors, added film grain, and dulled colors, which hurt the film’s detail and impact.

The new release fixes these problems, presenting the movie as the filmmakers envisioned.

The updated release also includes 90 minutes of deleted scenes and a new documentary.

This news comes as fans await a planned reboot of the Blair Witch series, which will be the fourth movie in the franchise, following the original and its two sequels from 2000 and 2016.

Do you remember all the Blair Witch Project marketing when it originally came out? Whatever you think of this film, no denying it had a massive impact on the horror genre as a wole in more ways than one.
