Found Footage Movies Like The Blair Witch Project

15 hand-picked films

Three student filmmakers walk into the Maryland woods to document a local legend, and all that is left is their own footage.

It works with plain-looking tapes, arguing friends and a threat you never see. These films give you more woods, more legends and more footage that feels like it was really found.
