The soundtrack for a film with no music? Yes, it's true. Josh's Blair Witch Mix takes the high concept of "music inspired by the film" to new extremes: this is the mix tape found in Josh's car on the fateful night the "documentary" was filmed. Whatever the case, Josh's is filled with the doom-and-gloom sounds of vintage goth and industrial tracks and the occasional "scared silly" movie sound bites. It's a strong compilation with classic tunes by Lydia Lunch, P.I.L., Bauhaus, the Creatures, Front Line Assembly, and others. The included enhanced CD video snippet contains footage not found in the actual film. Ironic: one thing that makes The Blair Witch Project so believable is the fact that it lacks the typical clichéd horror-movie sound effects. Luckily, this "soundtrack" is far from clichéd and every bit as creative as its movie counterpart. The only thing creepier would be if Josh had been listening to a tape of smooth jazz.... --Jason Verlinde

Kick ass CD! Very 80's and 90's music........2006-06-02

I saw the film and I loved it. One of the best movies I've seen, and to make it more interesting there's a soundtrack, and a very aprropriate one too. The music on this CD is gothic mixed with 80's and 90's rock, like 'Front Line Assembly'. I love this kind of music and despise pop, so if you like pop music then you will hate this CD. But if you like pop then why are you even considering buying this CD? Unless you have freakishly diverse tast in music. And, this CD has film footage that you don't see in the movie that should play on Windows Media. This CD has a great little collection of music from the 80' and 90's if you're into that and not the film. There's just one thing I didn't like about this CD, and that's the stupid audio taken from the film in-between tracks (i.e. Heather talking). It's only like in-between one or two but its annoying! But otherwise its a great CD!

CRAB ASS MOVIE!!! SO FU..KING DUM...WHATS THE PIONT?.......2005-11-11

IF SOME ONE KNOW THE MEANING OF THIS BULL SH.T LET ME KNOW,YOU TELL ME!!

Not a Soundtrack, but a Companion Piece.......2001-07-24

A Soundtrack to a movie with no music? No, this is not some shallow attempt to cash in on a successful film (surprisingly), but rather a very good goth-industrial compilation disc. In the context of the film, one of the doomed kids put together a mix tape to put them in the mood as they headed out to the woods to make their ill-fated documentary. This CD is that mix, and it couples with the movie and the website (blairwitch.com) very nicely to create a true multimedia experience. Even if you haven't seen the movie, the CD stands on its own as a great goth- industrial sampler if you want to know more about that kind of music. Also, the film's haunting closing credit music is included.

This is an excellent CD!.......2001-07-15

I had never heard of any of the artists on this CD, but I'd listened to a few songs before on the movie's webpage. I bought the CD on a whim, and soon began to listen to it at least twice a day. It is, without a doubt, one of my favorite. Lydia Lunch's haunting voice and screeching saxophone (maybe?) starts the CD in a strangely beautiful way. The Order of Death is also one of my favorites--it has energy and excellent instruments and gets your adrenaline going, then the CD slows down for Skinny Puppy's sad song full of strange sound effects. Then the beautiful acoustics of Bauhaus reminds us of prophecies long ago and ends rather suddenly after the phrase "The Sky Will Open!", leaving us with a void filled by The Creatures. The strange ungendered voice and minor chords of the guitar put me in the mind of Nine Inch Nails, and the song is creepy as well as wonderful. Then Laibach suddenly picks up the pace with the operatic tone combined with scratchy prophecies about the power of God. The Afghan Whig's sad, slow melody comes next with a warning about the people you think you know and a yearning for love in his voice. Front Line Assembly fills the air with weird sounds of people talking and laughing while forcing out grated phrases about abuse and fear. Then, the climax of the whole CD is "Haunted" by Type O Negative, which begins slowly and beautifully, then becomes minor and dark, then has a man talking about his spirit lover and all the poetry she brings out in him, then goes on again to the dark, deep voice and minor chords about hating the morning and ends somewhat slow with the humming. Very, very inspiring. "She's Unreal" is somewhat repetative but neatly picks up where "Haunted" abruptly ends, and includes some interesting experimentations with sounds. "Movement of Fear" starts to slowly wrap up the CD with the feeling of slow panic, but also like you have to give in. Then CD ends with "The Cellar", a track of the noises heard in the movie that slowly ends, leaving you wired and ready to listen again. All in all, it is much more of a masterpiece than the movie, which was pretty bad. Had they made the movie revolve around some of the ideas these songs represent, it would have been wonderful.

One of the best soundtracks made.......2000-08-07

This is a great listen. Everything in this is dark and gloomy, which I like, and of course if you're going to have a "gothic" soundtrack, you have to include Bauhaus, and this is one of Bauhaus's best tracks. Everything on this is haunting and spooky, like "She's Unreal", that song made me feel creeped out for some reason, maybe it was the lyrics, but I love that song too. I didn't like the movie that much, and the clip that came with this CD was just more of the same stuff. This CD is reccomended to anyone who likes dark rock music.
