Da Hip Hop Witch (2000)

Several well-known hip hop artists go public disclosing their personal accounts with the "Black Witch in the Projects". This supernatural terror attacks rap and hip-hop artists in the greater New York and New Jersey areas. The Street Don, a notorious rap mogul, offers $10,000.00 for the capture of the witch and sponsors daily updates of the attacks on a major TV network. An aspiring reporter uses her job at a supermarket tabloid publication to discover the identity and truth about the hip hop witch but finds out more than she anticipated. Meanwhile, five bored white kids from Framingham, Ma. take a joy ride to New York City to capture the witch and collect the reward money but end up lost and scattered in The Big Apple.

Why Rappers Shouldn't Act

This movie was horrible. It was filmed as part documentary, part lame movie. A bad story line, (5 white people try to find a witch that targets rappers) accompanied by poor acting (if you're gonna pretend you saw something, at least make it sound believable! Who smiles when telling you that someone was trying to kill them? Ja Rule that's who.) makes this the worst movie I've ever seen. Eminem did an okay job during his interview, but that is the only upside to this movie. I hope they paid him a lot to put him on the cover. If you want to see a good movie about rappers, check out Jay-Z's "State Property", or "State Property 2". They aren't the best movies I've ever seen, but are leagues above this low budget bomb.

horrible

the worst movie ever made. the person that made this fat sack of crap should be voted the worst director ever, not edward d. wood, jr.
i want to build a time machine, go back to when this abomination was being concocted and eliminate them.
and to all the rappers that appeared in this, you have lost maad respect - so im pirating your music to make up for the $3 i spent to rent this, plus intrest for wasting my time. January 9, 2006

absolutely awful

i cant beleive artisan (the same studio that released blair witch) is actually distributing this ...

dont be fooled by other user review for this dvd. they are all biased reviews submitted by its "filmmakers". this is plainly and painfully obvious once you see this awful mess.

first of all, dont be fooled by the cover of the dvd. the original release of the dvd did not have eminem on the cover for a good reason. the story of the dvd has nothing to do with eminem, and its false advertising to have him on the cover. obviously they're trying to cash in on his fame with the redesigned cover. pathetic.

to give you an idea of how awful this movie is, eminem got into legal battles with its producers because he was so ashamed of being involved in it, he wanted any footage containing him to be edited out. and i dont blame him.

there is more false advertising. there is no acting by any of the rappers listed on the box.. all they did was tape several famous rappers saying how bad and evil the hip hop witch is. each rapper has a screen time of maybe 2 minutes to 3 minutes.. then the cut back to the storyline of a bunch of suburban kids getting lost in NYC. which is poorly edited by the way. let me reiterate, that the rappers listed on the cover of the dvd arent involved with the plot, or the storyline. its god awful..
not to mention there is no real storyline in this movie. its just a vehicle for showcasing a bunch of rappers talking about a non-existent witch. you can even see the disgust in their faces as they talk about it, but getting paid is getting paid isnt it? the storyline has no continuity, no climax, no ending. i repeat it has NO ENDING. no conclusion, no protagonist, or antognist.

steer clear of this disaster. June 5, 2003

More EMINEM on this one!!!

Yall know me and I saw the first one last year and it was like 2.5 stars. But this one was RE-EDITED and has like 30 MORE MINUTES of EMINEM and he's both really funny and gross but I won't give it away. I really liked the style of the way this was done because it parodies the Blair Witch Project in an ambitious and very funny way with today's biggest NEW SCHOOL rappers like Benzino, Rah Digga, Ja Rule and Mobb Deep. The director mock's the original Blair Witch Project's bad lighting and shaky camera work perfectly...oh and the music is incredible for a low budget urban horror movie!!! May 3, 2003
