I actually like the sequel, at times better than the first one, it's pretty ingenious and where it not for the terrible soundtrack picks and the studio bickering I think it would be seen differently today.

Fuckyou man. You know exactly what I meant, don't add being an obtuse rear end in a top hat to being a passive aggressive one, particularly if you're trying to claim some sort of high ground over me.

he's not being passive agressive, just uninterested in responding to you, for whatever reason (that's passive aggressiveness)

Even in that same specific sub-sub-genre of quasi-occult found footage backwoods horror (including films like Willow Creek and The Blackwater Vampire), the underseen Bigfoot County is at least on par with Blair Witch.

The question is really 'good at what?' at this point, found footage is well beyond just being a subgenre of horror. I'd say The Den, as just one example, is scarier and generally better-made, but it's a completely different film.

Willow Creek is one of the few FF where I don't find myself thinking, who is the editor in this, for the lack of one. The scenes with double-takes give it this raw footage feel, not to mention an insight into the douchy guy's relation to his girlfriend.
