Blair Witch is like a fine wine that ages well. The older I get, the more I appreciate what an amazing piece of history that movie was.

The way she yelled “joshhhhhhhh!!” So fucking genuine she could act man

It boggles my mind that her career never took off. She was my generations scream queen. Gorgeous and a great actress and the fact she even worked with Spielberg, it didn’t make sense that her career never fully took off. She’ll make a comeback one day

Shes such a talented wit. I kinda wish she continued acting but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

She should have gotten an Oscar for her performance

She only gave one of the most organic and believable performances in cinema history! Mostly improvised no less.

she should NOT have received a Razzie for worst actress for this. Such a raw and intense performance.

She has a good speaking voice.

And all it took was 8 days?! Bravo! That just shows the talent these actors have!

She is an amazing actress, it's a big shame barely anyone recognizes that.

I find it incredibly ironic that three people who pulled off some of the most incredible and convincing performances I have ever seen, never went on to do another movie again...

The movie broke ground in so many ways good and bad. Fantastic job by all and it's a classic.

Internet then was a pretty new thing. And I really give credit to the marketing strategy of this film.. and I mean AMAZINGLY DONE!! This film really scared the hell out of me during its time because the timing was just really perfect. I bet 100% if any reboots or sequels are not as successful as this one. The only time I realised it was not real was when I saw the characters presenting an award. Their budget vs box office was staggering. NO EFFECTS, NO OSCAR AWARDS TYPE OF ACTING... JUST MARKETING. It was pure film brilliance. :)

The acting from Heather, Josh, and Mike is one reason why i believed it was real back then. "Worst actress"? Um, no. They all three did an incredible job. It didn't feel forced or anything of the sort. It was very raw and felt very real. Still love the movie after all this time.

there was a few weeks where everyone thought it was real but then they showed up on MTV the weekend of the movies release... So it was a good thing I saw it on release day.... because it was really different and it was more scary

She sounds so nice and witty. Too bad she never made it big.

Oh good they found her!

I think Josh did a really good job in his role too. Like he really had me feeling for him. Like you watching a guy slowly losing it and going through hell mentally. Obviously Heather nailed the terror acting. She really made her being terrified believable. Her screaming, especially when she’s running and says “WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!!” was so believable

It is extremely interesting to listen to her talk about how they made the film; so many factors made the movie so REAL.

I ended up asking the guy sitting next to me in the cinema auditorium if I could hold his arm

One of the coolest movies with one of the coolest backstories and some of the best acting I've ever seen.

She was wonderful in BWP and Taken and seems so self-assured and confident in interviews from this time. It's such a loss that she didn't get the quality scripts she deserved. Glad she's happy with her 'growing' though!

As a kid i thought this movie was real. It fuck me up lol

In a weird way, I'm really glad Heather Donahue only played this one role as an actress and became a legend for the millennial generation! There are so many actresses that have dozens of famous films and are fabulously wealthy beyond their dreams, but I would bet anyone that none of their works evokes such feelings of nostalgia and sense of creativity and all around fun as Heather Donahue's performance, along with her co-actors, in The Blair Witch Project. It was literally a community event, the "Woodstock" moment of our age, that only comes once in a generation. There will never be another Heather Donahue or The Blair Witch Project, at least with the same magical spell and social phenomena serving as the backdrop for what essentially was a chance at some exposure and minimum financial success. Yet here we all are nearly three decades later...love this movie til the day I die!

Bruh that outfit that the interviewer is wearing though.

1999 Was an incredible year in an incredible decade 😀

She’s gorgeous 😍

This is a cult classic that began the “lost footage found” genre.

a well put together woman.

are you kidding me? these actors should be payed loads of money!

I'm watching this again and I don't know if standards have slipped but the 3 of them did a phenomenal job. Really brilliant actors and all of them deserved great careers.

0:02 i’d love to watch the entire movie in this quality, would really make it feel as if it’s a random old tape from the 90s that you’ve stumbled upon

It’s so funny hearing her say “global positioning system” instead of just GPS. Just like how people in this time would sometimes say “World Wide Web.” Haha!

I had such a big crush on her. Turns out I still do 👀

I love how she says "my mother wanted to know if they had girlfriends do they have boyfriends?" Like hello Heather, giving props to the gays

and the fact that most of the dialogue was improvised is crazy. she’s a great actress

Absolute classic movie and performance.

amazing movie...I just rewatched the other night and it still scares the shit out of me

What I thought this was all real clips. I can’t believe that she is such a good actor

I wish Heather Donahue had been in more movies! I really like her personality and she is so beautiful.

The wedges.... The furry collar....

Insanely talented and beautiful. She should have been super rich and famous for this. America would have loved it.

This movie scared the (insert bad word) out of me.the actors did such a compelling job. Bravo. I watch it every labor day before I decorate for Halloween.

She has excellent diction.

I love found footage movies and I think that they should have their own genre now.

She was a beauty

One of the most profitable films of all time...and one of the most terrifying. Few films transcend into a cultural phenomenon (for its time). I remember watching it in the theater on opening night. I also remember the brilliant marketing by the studio prior to release.

I love Heather. And I saw The Blair Witch Project at the movies.

GOD she’s bangin !!!

She was 90's hot

Wow! 1st time seeing this . She had me for 18 years believing THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT was a true documentary. I really thought that she was dead..🥴🥴 omg thank goodness shes alive !!!! AMAZING MOVIE !!!

I don’t know if I’m the only one but this convo at some point gets passive aggressive between the two lol

This was such a brilliant film and far ahead of its time!

She sounds like Jan from the office

She's great. Hearing her voice gives me chills and I love it 😅

I saw the movie at home. Still the scariest movie, EVER! I lived in the woods. So seeing this at 12 there. Really scared me.

heather donahue kind of looks like Jennifer Aniston except way hotter

Fascinating details from Heather!! Great interview.

Was soo good! I remember watching it in my room alone with a ceiling to floor mirror. Thats was unsettling at the time 😅😅 I remember sweating and not wanting to move haha

This movie will always be one of my favorites. Being 11-12 years old when it came out and thinking it was real was the best movie experience I ever gotten and will ever get. The internet wasn’t anywhere near what it is today. Mike Williams should have went into comedy, go watch the Blair witch reunions….dude is hilarious.

The way the film was structured and the amount of improv moments warranted these actors/actress Oscar nominations. I first went to see this when the hype was just building and I thought I was watching a real found footage movie. Then I later saw Heather in an interview, and realized it was just a movie Scared the hell out of me.

When i first learned of the blair witch movie, i went to see the movie, i later met the camera person that filmed the movie and he was a very kind gentleman. there are many interviews of the blair witch cast and crew on youtube and all over the internet. however, when i watch a movie like the original mcpherson tapes, and i see no interviews with anyone in the movie, this strongly indicates that something is unusual about the movie. and further indicates that there is a possibility that the tapes are something other than a movie. but possibly more of a document. what i am grateful for, is that at least such footage as the original mcpherson tapes are made public, even if the story is supposed to be that its just a movie. to me, this just means that we are going to be seeing lots of potentially real footage that will be categorized as movies, and in my viewpoint, if none of the cast and crew or most of the cast and crew, are not interviewing after the success of their film, then this could be an indication of actual authenticity of actual experience, rather than a movie experience. but even if the original mcpherson tapes were a movie, the obvious thing is that these experiences have been happening throughout time. in actuality. and i still think we need a department of extraterrestrial visitation where peaceful visitations can be met with public meet and greet experiences. the blair witch movie in my experience, was the first of its kind, in movie theaters. and has changed history. Great work!

She has the wildest eyes... she is a great actress.

Movie freaked me tf out back as a kid

People to this day believe this movie is real.

She was a beautiful great actress with a nice look iam surprised she never did more with her career.

Just the difference in acting and surrealism is what makes this the number 1 horror movie to me let alone found footage. A film from 99 portraying 93. This was so ahead of its time. The suspense felt until the end. Even the 2016 sequel doesn't compare because of the actors and how the witch looked like a skin walker rather than this paranormal figure. I've seen this movie probably 6 times in the last 4 years. And I see something new ever time upon viewing it. This film really pierced through the walls of reality and entertainment especially at a time the internet was still in its infancy. This movie will always stick with me. The woods alone is a character in itself. Comparing the woods from the 99 version to 2016 version is a night and day difference. The woods in 99 feels haunted where the woods in 2016 version feels like some camp area from Florida just by looking at the trees alone that's how much I paid attention. I hear blumhouse is doing a remake or reboots but there will never be another blair witch project like 99s

I think she was interested in more than just acting. Too smart for that industry.

She is so talented and witty and just fucking brilliant!

I was actually surprised how shocked and appalled Americans were when they realized this "documentary" wasn't real. I watched this movie when I was like 11, before the studio admitted it was all fictional. I didn't need the studios admission to know these were improv actors. Also, the PR campaign that was pushed before this movie was released was so blatant. It was over the top. Any time ALL media is talking about the same thing, you should know something is up. And if you don't, you're ignorant. I loved it tho. Nothing has come close to replicating this film, to this day. Because the high budgets in Hollywood expose the manipulations outright.

I LOVE HER 😭

This was fun to watch.

Improv is where the actor truly gets to show off their talent as a performance ARTIST. She is truly a talented artist and it breaks my heart that the film negatively affected her career. I would have loved to see much more work from her, but she no longer acts at all.

They should have all kept working together as an improv team

She’s so charming 😊

Me as a kid thinking this was really tell I turned about 16 in 06, still such a classic film 🎥 own all 3

I saw this in cinama i was warned not to but i did i suffered a heart attack ended up in hospital for 3 weeks it freaked me right out to me it was real so creepy

Is it just me or she couldve easily played a role on the tv show Friends as Rachel's long lost sister at the time cause to me she favored Jennifer Aniston a good bit back at this time.thats just my opinion lol

The best

I think I see Bolivia

For anyone who’s wondering if she died, here’s proof she was alive and well.

she was so beautiful, wow

I remember camping with a mate, in her parents garden, after watching this film, and when going outside to do my business I was scared shit less by an owl hooting, it still scares me and its sequels. I nearly walked out on the most recent film, cos I thought I'd be the only one at the auditorium luckily another 5 people entered just before the film started

She should've won awards for This movie. I know when it came out I was 11-12 and watched it. The way they marketed it, I thought it was real. Now looking back I feel so dumb, but the marketing was genius. You didn't see the actors anywhere else, or in any movies, making it appear to be real. The ending was what got me. To this day, it still creeps me out, and that's hard to do now as I feel I've become desensitized because of the way horror movies have evolved...or it could just be me lol. I did have an argument with my best friend at the time about the movie. We believed it was real. However I saw heather years later on an awards show and told my friend and she didn't believe me. I was like that proves it was fake. This was before cell phones and googling everything like we can do now. I finally proved it to her one day and she didn't talk to me for a while after that oh the 90s and 00s lol

Why was she much prettier here?

Incredible video

The best low budget horror movie EVER made

If the Would found Real Found Footage of Missing People in TODAY'S World, Murdered, or even Taken by the Paranormal, Believing that or Not, I don't think there would be a HOLLYWOOD Movie, or even a Big Premiere for it. At least I don't think so... That's how Cool Shit was back in those Days!!!

When was this interview? She's really gorgeous :)

shes a dream huh

Esta hermosa, en la película no lo nota. Mi película favorita de terror suspenso, recuerdo salir del cine alucinado.

Linda mulher

Blair Witch is one of those movies I can’t watch at night lol. Genuinely scary

Funny story from Heather Donahue later on, she said that the woman who played Mary Brown was an actual mentally ill woman, besides thw few lines about the witch, all the other shit she said was just stuff the actress told them. She really did think she was a ballerina she really did think she worked for the department of nuclear energy and a scientist. And apparently they deleted footage of the actress taking the characters inside her trailer because it wasn't in the script, but Heather and her crew just thought Mary Brown's actress was doing her job so they followed her lmao. Heather said she didn't know what to do so she just recorded things like this woman's bedroom and her medicine cabinet 😂

I got to Speak with Her for a Microsecond at a HORROR Con, and was gonna see Her again, but I didn't get to, I forget why. FUCKIN BUMMER!!!!!

❤❤❤❤❤

My mom watched the movie with me & knew she was an actor by the way she talked.

I just watched the movie and assumed it was real and I was crying so much and found out that it was an act and I broke down, but thank God it wasn't really a very painful thing, I'm from Saudi Arabia I don't understand English well because of that I thought the movie was real

Well, they did sure had a whole lot of us fooled even mean particular I actually thought that movie was real but I was not scared of it or anything. I was in vacation that one year when that movie came out, so yeah, I am believed that movie was for real, but the story still is true, but Eli Kenwards being accused as a witch is also based from the book known as the Bella witch in the area or in places during the Colonial times

J O S H ! ! !
