Steve Oedekerk, the writer of Bruce Almighty and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius brings us a very special version of The Blair Witch Project made with the latest `digit-al` technology.
The Thumb Studio specialises in re-makes of some of our favourite cult films and this time three camera-wielding digits get lost in the forest, fight off a shark attack in their tent - `It could have been an owl`, one thumb hopefully offers - and relentlessly film every moment of their blind panic as they seek to unravel the mystery of Blair Thumb.
