The Wicksboro Incident

im sorry but this is way better than crap like 13 ghosts,freddy vs jason or any of the Texas chainsaw massacre prequel/sequels, i admit the ending was a bit lame but so was Blair Witch and i still enjoyed that.

I applaud the film-makers as at least it was an original idea compared to Hollywoods habit of hiring hacks to re-ruin great horror movies of the 60's & 70's, i mean seriously what is peoples problem with this film? just because it is laden with CGI special effects a lot of the viewing public seem to switch off but i still rate this much better, these guys did a great job for next to no money and the acting wasn't that bad either. well worth a look in my opinion

"The Wicksboro Incident" might have been a small sensation had it been released a decade ago, before "The Blair Witch Project." Then again, maybe not. For one thing, "Wicksboro" wouldn't have existed if not for "Blair Witch," seeing as how it is a blatant rip-off--the same faux documentary homemade style, same basic story with UFO's tossed in, even some virtually identical scenes. But Wicks doesn't carry the gimmick to any kind of surprising, or even logical conclusion, and lacks the "this really happened and we found this footage buried in a hole in the ground" thing that made its predecessor so compelling. (I won't spoil the ending for you, but let's just say that where "Blair" had an eerily ambiguous ending, Wicks barely has one at all). And it doesn't help that there's only 30 or 40 minutes worth of material to fill its 90 minute length--a lot of repetition and worthless footage that any real documentarian would have edited out, further killing the illusion of reality.

Maybe if you've never seen Blair, you'll like Wicks to some degree--if you have a remote with a greased fast forward button.

This documentary starts out odd, and seems very suspicious at first glance. It has to be watched in it's entirety from beginning to end before anyone has the right to place judgement. Fast forwarding is a sign of being narrow minded.

A strong understanding of Area 51, and other related government cover-up theories makes this documentary one to watch to the end. Are they here among us? With the chaos, and very confusing times we are facing today, it is quite possible.

The world is supposed to be "more highly educated" everyday, yet we are still seemingly slipping backwards at an alarming rate! Why? Jeremy

Anytime you watch a movie like this, you have either seriously forgive its flaws, in this case an ultra low budget and some serious borrowing from Blair Witch Project, and suspend your disbelief, or you just simply pick it apart. In this case, I chose the former and really enjoyed it. It did have some serious flaws and you have to REALLY give yourself over to the whole "conspiracy theory" ideology to make the movie work. In its favor it has great pacing and, unlike some commenter, the second act was fairly strong with a 100-yard dash like pace and great tension build up.

Overall, though, this movie did keep me on edge and my heart rate accelerated. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to people who enjoy the US Government/Alien conspiracy genre.

The film started off really slow and meeting up with a guy to tell us his story at first he gave the impression he was crazy about aliens driving all over the place and using the thing he made up. But when they started getting followed and had to change cars it got better and when he did manage to persuade them to go out and look for the shelter on the night they still thought he was crazy untill they did find it that's when they took him serious u won't say anymore than that you have got to sit and watch it no matter how bored you get it also proves the USA cover up what we are not suppose to see even at all costs life or death
