A New Blair Witch Movie Was Made In Secret And It’s Out VERY Soon

It’s official – Adam Wingard’s upcoming horror ‘The Woods’ isn’t really ‘The Woods’.

Instead, it turns out it’s actually ‘Blair Witch’, the sequel to the hugely-influential indie horror film, ‘The Blair Witch Project’.

And it’s been under our noses the entire time.

‘The Woods’ was screened last night at San Diego Comic Con to a crowd of fans who became the first to learn of the movie’s whopping, great secret.

Watch the reveal trailer below.

As you can see from the video, it turns out that the main character in ‘Blair Witch’ (formerly ‘The Woods’) is the younger brother of Heather – one of the main characters of the original movie.

And it seems he wants some answers…

Released in 1999, ‘The Blair Witch Project’ reinvigorated the horror genre, popularising the found footage style of horror film making. And for many film fans, ‘The Blair Witch Project’ continues to be the defining movie of the sub-genre.

But this isn’t the first ‘Blair Witch’ sequel we’ve seen…

‘Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2’ was released in 2000 – just a year after the original movie took the world by storm. But with a completely different style and tone, the sequel was met with largely negative reactions.

Can ‘Blair Witch’ finally give us the sequel we’ve been waiting for?

For now, we’ll have to wait and see… but it looks incredibly promising.

‘Blair Witch’ stars Valorie Curry, Callie Hernandez, James Allen McCune , Brandon Scott, Wes Robinson and Corbin Reid.

Adam Wingard directed the movie based on a script by Simon Barrett.

‘Blair Witch’ heads to cinemas on 16 September 2016.
