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.
