Season 5, Episode 46: Interview with Michael C. Williams (Mike) from “The Blair Witch Project” (1999) – Before Cloverfield, there was The Blair Witch Project

I was 20 years old when I saw The Blair Witch Project in the theater, and did it creep me out. That final shot of Mike standing in the corner remains just as chilling today as it did just over 25 years ago. It’s one of the most iconic final shots in modern and found-footage horror. What an honor and pleasure to sit down with Michael C. Williams and to learn everything about his role and one of my all-time favorite found-footage movies. Michael was chosen to play that role and he f**king delivered flawlessly. There are no words on how I can express my undying gratitude for this phenomenal actor. I am very grateful that we had this opportunity and hopefully one day I will get Joshua Leonard on the shows. Unfortunately, Heather has already expressed that she doesn’t do interviews anymore and I respect her wishes. With that being said, this interview in my opinion is perfect. There’s nothing I would change about what just happened. In the end, Michael does say his famous ‘Map’ line for me, and it is glorious. Ensure to check out Michael in his newest role as ‘Pete’ in the horror/thriller “Ghost Game” (2024) now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, Fandango, and Pluto TV.
