Would you make a documentary about a murderous witch in the Maryland woods alongside Greta Johnsen, Tricia Bobeda and Peter Sagal?

Of course you wouldn’t!

Welcome back to Nerdette Recaps with Peter Sagal! It’s the podcast where we rewatch movies from 1999 and dissect them like the intense nerds we are.

Today, it’s all about The Blair Witch Project, a film with a $60,000 budget and three unknown actors that made over $240 million.

Listen as Peter, Tricia and Greta decide whether this movie is genius, boring or nausea-inducing, and then join us next week for Election … just in time for the election.

And don’t forget, we want to hear from you! Join the party and send us a voice recording about any of the movies we’re featuring. Just record yourself on your phone and send the audio file to nerdetterecaps@gmail.com.
