The Bogus Witch Project

The first segment, "The Watts Bitch Project", was mildly funny, enough to make me think that this collection of spoofs gained its REALLY bad reputation mostly because fans of the real movie took the whole thing as an insult. I was wrong. If the first segment was watchable, what came next was complete, unwatchable crap with not one single laugh. The fake commercials were lame and the next spoofs were so unfunny it was painful. The Pauly Shore segment was particularly goofy and out of place.

My advice it that you can skip this movie but if you happen to catch it on cable, watch only the first segment. The rest is absolutely unwatchable. By the way, here are my ratings:

segment "The Watts Bitch Project" 5/10; segment "The Griffith Witch Project" 1.5/10; segment "In the Woods Segments" 1/10; segment "Pauly Shore Segment" 1/10; segment "The Bel Air Witch Project" 1/10; segment "The Willie Witch Project" 1/10

Overall: 2/10

I first saw this over summer 2000, I KNEW that this would have to hit the bottom 100 here at the IMDB because it is at least as bad as the crap the guys on MST3K are forced to watch. I totally forgot about it until I was digging through a box of old tapes, I wish I would have remembered to come here and warn everyone back then.

It consists of 5 or so REALLY bad Blair Witch parodies separated by fake "commercials" which make the worst Saturday Night Live skit seem like High Art.

For example, one has a guy dressed up as Bigfoot sitting at a desk, then he waves his arms around and growls, and then it goes to the next segment. Yes, they actually put that on film.

Most of the parodies seem like something a few film students decided to do over the weekend to show their friends at a drinking party, it is like watching someone's bad home videos, you can't string that together and call it a film.

Oh I forgot it has Pauly Shore, I thought maybe he would have done a full parody of TBWP and made it at least a little funny since he has some experience in comedy, but he is in it for all of 3 minutes in the very middle and isn't funny in the least.

No redeeming qualities at all.

Pauly Shore (off California Man) stars for about 10 minutes in this VERY, VERY low and budget "film" which "parodies" Blair Witch with lots of "jokes" strung together and dished out to the public.

This is not funny, not good or indeed anything. The first joke is probably okay - but then straight after that it just hurts so bad you just have to laugh AT it, and not WITH it.

There is no story, nothing - its just a load of jokes which are strung together by this camera man running through a forest.

There is also an annoyingly bad sequence with a black actor playing some insurance idiot who can't look in the camera right nor say his lines good. Why was he there? Indeed why is any of this trash called "comedy" there?

Do not rent, do not buy, do not even go round to your enemy and force him to watch this drivel - it is THAT bad.

0/10.

This has to be the worst "film" I have ever "watched".

I cant believe a studio spent money on this worthless piece of trash. I could have drunk three bottles of Robitussin Cough Medicine and still written a better script and screenplay than this pathetic attempt at film-making. All concerned with this project should never work in movies again, and it would not be a bad thing if someone hunted them all down and gave them a good shoeing behind the bike sheds. I cant tell you not to watch this servile junk enough. Suffice to say I have sat through films which are "so bad its funny", but this is totally without merit.

Such a bad film. Bad, bad film

This movie made me want to write a haiku about it:

"An awful movie

torturing me to the end

very few laughs here!"

There is only one segment about this movie that I thought was truly funny (The Willie Witch Project), and unfortunately, you have to sit through most of the movie to see it. Having sharp pieces of bamboo inserted under my fingernails seemed more preferable.

Please avoid this movie and save your sanity!
