I can say that John Eddins and Brenda are good in their roles, and they are, especially for two presumably amateur actors. I can comment on how the film managed to combine the ideas behind Blair Witch and an "urban" sensibility better than the still-decent Watts Bitch Project. I could go on about how the ending scenes actually achieve an atmosphere that combines humor with mild creepiness. But I won't go into any of that, because the msin reason Willie Witch deserves to be seen is Thomas Miles's completely hilariously over-the-top gay parody, Eugene. Eugene, a stereotype of snappy comebacks and snappier clothes, may be offensive, but he truly puts In Living Color's Blaine and Antwone in the shade.
