Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974): 1 line

  1. industry (marketing precedent) · through The Blair Witch Project (1999), which they acted in: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre ⇒ The Blair Witch Project (the host's read). The 'based on true events' opening was smart and was ripped off by Blair Witch in 1999, pre-internet.
    “We didn't know any better in 1999.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ With Bill Simmons and Chris Ryan · 0:17:13 · Bill Simmons (0.50 sure it was them)

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

Obsession (2025): 1 line

  1. unmapped (forerunner) · through The Blair Witch Project (1999), which they acted in: The Blair Witch Project ⇒ Obsession (the host's read). Blair Witch is named a forbear of a word-of-mouth phenomenon among young people.
    “obviously the Blair Witch Project is a forbear here in a lot of ways.”
    The Big Picture · The Top 10 Fantasy Films, The Toy Movie Hall of Fame, and ‘Masters of the Universe,’ with Griffin Newman! · 0:08:44 · unknown (Griffin or Sean) (0.40 sure it was them)
