    The Blair Witch Project
    RARE Japanese Pressbook!
    Note: Text is in Japanese.
    The Blair Witch Project is a 1999 American supernatural horror film written, directed and edited by Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez. It is based on the purportedly true story of three student filmmakers—Heather Donahue, Michael C. Williams, and Joshua Leonard—who hike into the Black Hills near Burkittsville, Maryland in 1994 to film a documentary about a local legend known as the Blair Witch. The three disappear, but their equipment and footage are discovered a year later. The purportedly "recovered footage" is the film the viewer sees. Myrick and Sánchez conceived of a fictional legend of the Blair Witch in 1993. They developed a 35-page screenplay with the dialogue to be improvised. A casting call advertisement in Backstage magazine was prepared by the directors; Donahue, Williams and Leonard were cast. The film entered production in October 1997, with the principal photography taking place in Maryland for eight days. About 20 hours of footage was shot, which was edited down to 82 minutes. Shot on an original budget of ,000–60,000, the film had a final cost of 0,000–750,000 after post-production edits.

    I took several pictures of the exact Pressbook you would be getting.  If you need to see anything else please shoot me a DM.
    So what is a movie pressbook ( or movie pamphlet as it is known here in Japan ) actually?  It's basically a book ( usually 30-40 pages ) that contains the film’s synopsis and background, production photos, cast and crew information, and trivia like that. Available only during the film’s run at the cinema, pressbooks sell like hotcakes.
    The idea is simple, but the execution is just brilliant; many of the books produced are so exquisitely pretty it's hard not to part with one’s money for a copy, especially if it's a film that you enjoyed.
