There’s no question about it… the best kept secret at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con was the fact that Adam Wingard’s new movie The Woods is actually the third film in the Blair Witch franchise. We’ve known about it for the last several weeks and have been dying to tell you, but why ruin the surprise?!?
After the screening of Blair Witch (review), filmmakers Adam Wingard, Simon Barrett, Keith Calder, and Jessica Wu took center stage to discuss making the film, keeping the secret, and everything in between!
Check out the video below of the entire Q&A session. You may have to turn up your sound because they were having mic trouble. Also, watch at your own peril because THERE ARE A FEW SPOILERS.

Synopsis:
A group of college students venture into the Black Hills Forest in Maryland to uncover the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of James’ sister, who many believe is connected to the legend of the Blair Witch. At first the group is hopeful, especially when a pair of locals offer to act as guides through the dark and winding woods; but as the endless night wears on, the group is visited by a menacing presence. Slowly, they begin to realize the legend is all too real and more sinister than they could have imagined.
