Blair Witch was primo horror. Still good.I feel like I've told this story a million times. But, what the hell...
I was 8 or 9 when the "It" miniseries came on television, and I watched it every night for three nights I believe. Didn't scare me one bit. I mean it had John Boy and Lana Lang in it! Also, Tim freaking Curry. They are beloved actors. I wasn't scared at all. I wanted more.
The movies were pretty good too. Not scary to me.
However, The Blair Witch Project scared the crap out of me when it came out. Had all the lights on in the house for a month. I think I was 19? 20?
But It was pretty tame compared to the 70s stuff. People still bring up Trilogy of Terror and the Zuni doll.
In the 70s, they were fine with letting the bad guy win ...
