In the early 2000’s, erotic spoofs of The Blair Witch Project were all the rage. All you needed was a video camera, a forest, and a couple of actresses willing to get naked and you were all set. As far as these things go, director John (Playmate of the Apes) Bacchus’ The Erotic Witch Project isn’t a patch on Jim Wynorski’s The Bare Wench Project (which wasn’t even all that good to begin with), but at least it features a horny guy wearing a gorilla costume, so there’s that.
Darian Caine and her college coed friends go into the woods of Bacchusville, New Jersey looking for the mythical Erotic Witch armed with only a video camera. The witch supposedly emits a powerful sexual energy that makes anyone who enters the woods horny. The girls find dildos and naughty stick figures in the woods and realize they’re on the right trail. They soon fall under the spell of the witch and get it on with each other every chance they get.
The Erotic Witch Project falls well short of some of Bacchus’ other Seduction Cinema parodies. Even as far as Blair Witch rip-offs go, this is one of the weaker ones. It does the bare minimum with the idea and Bacchus doesn’t milk the concept for all its worth. As with most of these things, the interviews with the redneck locals who claim to have seen the witch are the roughest part. They go on too long, aren’t funny at all, and get in the way of the lesbian sex.
The sex scenes themselves offer more fizzle than sizzle. Most of the time is devoted to girls fondling each other while one of them holds the camera. Even if the camerawork wasn’t of the shaky-cam variety, there still wouldn’t be much to recommend here as most of the scenes go on too long and aren’t very sexy.
I thought this one was pretty decent.
