The Blair Witch Project (O+ Festival)

The legendary indie breakout of all breakouts gets a 25th anniversary screening. On October 21, 1994, three friends hiked into Maryland’s Black Hills Forest to shoot a documentary film on a local legend, The Blair Witch. They were never heard from again. One year later, their footage was found. Will be followed by a discussion with original cast members including filmmaker, writer, actor and Hudson Valley resident Joshua Leonard.  (dir.
