One-half hour telephone call with filmmaker Ed Sanchez. “In October of 1994, three student filmmakers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland while shooting a documentary. A year later their footage was found.” That line, of course, is from the wildly successful movie, “The Blair Witch Project”. The back story however is that in 1997, two young filmmakers got together, and started production on the most successfully profitable movie ever. Now you can spend a half-hour on the telephone, one-on-one, with Ed Sanchez, one of the two producers of Blair Witch, and currently of Haxan Films.
