Movie: Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000)
This review contains examples of:
- Artifact Title: Critic rants that the "Book of Shadows" mentioned in the title is not in the film.
- Dashed Plot Line: Critic points out that the flashbacks and flash-forwards make the film more confusing than Memento."Pay attention, there'll be a fucking quiz later!"
- Expy: The main characters are two pretentious authors, a pretentious wiccan, and pretentious filmmaker and their mangy dog.
- Hypocritical Humor: Critic does an imitation of the goth chick calling everyone freaks while wearing freaky face makeup.
- Mood Whiplash: Critic describes the scene where the female author has a dream about drowning her unborn child as "pleasant", followed by the scene where she has a miscarriage.
- Shout-Out

- Critic compares Kim to the goths on South Park.
- The images of the ghostly child are accompanied by Cartman's "German dance" song.
- Critic asks who could have sold Jeff a Civil War cannon factory for only one dollar. It cuts to Ol' Gil.
- Critic puts Homer's hooting from "Last Exit to Springfield" over a scene of Erica spinning wildly on the bed.
- Critic compares Steve's voice during his breakdown in the interrogation room to that of Miss Piggy.
- Critic compares Erica to Jessie Spano.
