    I assume the excess hype out of nowhere was due to a particularly successful guerrilla marketing campaign. I recall the first time I experienced one: 98 or 99, I come into work and 5 out of 30 people are talking about Blair Witch Project and how they plan to go see it. They must have hit all the right AOL chat rooms or whatever the hell they did back then.

      Same here for the Blair Witch movie. They really did market that well, for that era.
