In the last two decades, no film has wrought more confusion, fear, and satire than The Blair Witch Project (1999). Written and directed by Eduardo Sanchez and Daniel Myrick, the advertised-as-real found footage documentary taps into our most primal fears and paranoia.

The gals dig deep into this one, looking at American horror roots and how the phenomenon of the newly weaponized Internet catapulted this movie into infamy. Don't forget your map for this one!
