What trailers have offered inspiration? (part or whole)

The Blair Witch Project- A group of friends camp in a forest in search of an urban legend. They encounter something paranormal and disappear one by one. This film inspired me to create a similar trailer to it.
Paranormal Activity- This is similar to Blair witch Project in the sense that it was very low budget and filmed with ‘hand held camcorders’.
