I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summar (2006)

Zoe, did you tell anyone?, 22 July 2019


The quick pitch:  If you’ve seen I Know What You Did Last Summer, you know what to expect.  A young man is killed in a prank gone wrong. HIs friends vow to keep the details a secret.  A year later, someone who knows the truth starts sending threatening messages.  

Was there really a demand for I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer?  I Know What You Did Last Summer was, honestly, a decent enough movie and I Still Know You Did Last Summer was reasonably funny in a “so bad, it’s good” sort of way.  But this thing is completely unnecessary. In comparison, the first two movies are masterpieces. I’ll Always Know . . . is a complete disaster.

I have no desire to go into a long-winded review - it’s just not worth it.  Instead, I’ll make a list of the most heinous issues I have with the movie:
  • Colorado?  A hook-handed fisherman in Colorado.  Sure, why not?
  • The direction and editing are horribly distracting.  I think someone was trying to be a bit too artsy with clever scene changes and camera angles.  Instead, it’s all so annoying.
  • I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a group of characters in a horror movie more deserving of being butchered.  None of them has a single redeeming quality. They’re the worst!  
  • The plot . . .
STOP IT!  This movie really is the worst.  No point in going any further with this list.  The 2/10 I’ve rated I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer is incredibly generous.


2/10
