Lionsgate Bringing ‘The Blair Witch Project’ to VHS with Be Kind, Rewind Edition
Soon, you can head back to the woods with ‘The Blair Witch Project’ on VHS with a brand new Be Kind, Rewind edition, courtesy of Lionsgate.
In some fun news this morning, Lionsgate has announced that they’re releasing the 1999 The Blair Witch Project on VHS with the Be Kind, Rewind edition!
Via Lionsgate, “Some legacies endure, and some myths remain … a mystery. In October 1994, three film students ventured to a small Maryland town to shoot a documentary about the local Blair Witch legend, never to be seen again. All that remains is bone-chilling found video footage and unanswered questions. Newly restored with filmmaker approval from the original Hi8 videotapes and 16mm film elements, this special playable videotape edition of the 1999 horror sensationʼs revitalized original theatrical cut is available in the U.S. for the first time.”
The film was written, directed, and edited by Daniel Myrick & Eduardo Sanchez.
It stars Heather Donahue, Michael Williams, and Joshua Leonard.
Releasing the film on VHS is such an excellent idea, considering that The Blair Witch Project is presented as a mysterious “found” tape depicting a nightmare. There’s just something about that grainy VHS quality that gives any horror film an extra dash of cursed vibes.
Pre-order your copy of The Blair Witch Project on VHS now. It will release on October 13, 2026.
