The Blair Witch Project is getting a Blu-ray and VHS re-release — how to buy
Lionsgate Limited is releasing a restored 2-disc Blu-ray and an exclusive VHS of 'The Blair Witch Project,' with pre-orders live now and a street date of Oct. 13.
Lionsgate Limited has announced a remastered release of the iconic horror film, The Blair Witch Project, available in both Blu-ray and VHS formats. Preorders for the limited-edition items opened recently, with the Blu-ray edition scheduled for a release on October 13. The nostalgic VHS edition, echoing the movie's original marketing hook, will also be made available on the same date.
The Blu-ray package includes three distinct versions of the film: the officially approved theatrical cut, a newly restored festival cut from original Hi8 tapes and 16mm film, and the classic 35mm theatrical version. The additional extras include cast interviews, legacy bonus content like the original directors' commentary, deleted scenes, and a mockumentary titled, "Curse of the Blair Witch."
The VHS edition, on the other hand, is a throwback to the era, providing only the nostalgic format that the movie's marketing so effectively utilized to challenge audiences' perceptions of reality. This exclusive release is set to honor the film's lasting influence and enduring legacy.
