The Bogus Witch Project

In the spring of 1999, two filmmakers entered the Maryland woods to shoot a mock-documentary called The Blair Witch Project. It quickly became one of the most profitable independent films of all times. A number of other filmmakers soon followed the original filmmakers into the woods, creating a number of short parodies of the surprise hit, such as The Linda Blair Project, The Blair Underwood Project, The Watts Bitch Project, and The Walt Witch Project. A production company purchased the rights to several of these short films, then hired comic actor Pauly Shore to appear in short sequences bridging the short subjects., This inventive comedy offers a compilation of satirical short films that mercilessly lampoon the 1999 indie hit “The Blair Witch Project.” Amateur filmmakers load up their cameras and search for the elusive witch in public parks, the woods or shopping malls. Funnyman Pauly Shore is featured in one of the shorts.
