I Know What You Did Last Summer

With last year's legacy sequel, <i>I Know What You Did Last Summer</i> (2025), which <a href="https://boxd.it/apnbM7" rel="nofollow">I panned</a>, revisiting the original 1997 film was a long time in the making, so here we are.

Caught in the shadows in a post-<i>Scream</i> world, this film, like <i>Urban Legend</i>, <i>Valentine</i> and <i>Halloween: H20</i>, possessed a formula (No, not only the same poster setup) that kept viewers guessing until the very end who the killer is. However, we also had to sit through a bunch of dialog nonsense and filler content, including an Anne Heche cameo, a cruel form of punishment until the Ben Willis reveal, even though that whole story was laughable.

Almost 30 years later, <i>IKWYDLS</i> still remains a cult classic and, yep, you guessed it, provided two sequels (do yourself a favor and skip the third film, <i>I Will Always Know What You Did Last Summer</i>) and, so far, one legacy sequel.

So, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?!?!?

<b>Setup</b>: I watched <i>I Know What You Did Last Summer</i> in Filmmaker Mode with the LG OLED G6 because, you know, I wanted to get that nostalgic feeling that I had from seeing the film the first time around. While that worked wonders, I don't think I need to watch this film ever again.

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?! HUH?!?!

I Know What You Did Last Summer has an iconic late 90's teen cast. It will always live in Scream's shadows for me though, even though they came out two years apart. It holds up better than I expected it to though, and the beauty pageant scene is iconic.
