Film Review - "Hunting Matthew Nichols"


The shadow of 1999's The Blair Witch Project has loomed over every found footage horror movie to come our way in the subsequent century. With his directorial debut, Hunting Matthew Nichols, actor Markian Tarasiuk doesn't shy away from acknowledging that pivotal movie's influence. Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez's micro-budget blockbuster is explicitly referenced as possibly motivating the plot of Hunting Matthew Nichols. Access to the stunning but foreboding forests of Vancouver Island was likely another motivating factor for Tarasiuk.
