Brief synopsis of I Know What You Did Last Summer

After a post-graduation Fourth of July beer blast, four tipsy teens accidentally smash up a pedestrian with their car, and, in a panic, dispose of the almost-dead body in the ocean. Sure enough, the following summer, the reunited group is stalked by a mysterious figure clad in fisherman's garb--replete with fish hook. A putative echo of screenwriter Kevin Williamson's mega-hit "Scream," substituting that movie's inside-jokiness for genuine feelings of guilt and angst.

Critics Reviews

Radio Times

Aimed squarely at the teenage TV audience, this stalk-and-slash saga from director Jim Gillespie gives Scream writer Kevin Williamson the chance to revive his favourite psycho-killer clichés. Here, four high-school graduates cover up a hit-and-run accident, only to have the dark tragedy rear its head a year later when a hook-wielding masked fisherman starts bumping them off. The beautiful photography and nice visual flourishes make this extremely watchable, but Gillespie's chiller nevertheless trades on outdated thrills all the way through to its creak-and-shriek showdown.

Pretty cheesy, but still enjoyable

A customer from Yorkshire , 11/07/2004

If you've seen a slasher flick before, then you know what to expect. Cheesy dialogue, and over the top murders which usually involve copious amounts of blood being spilt.

The film is enjoyable, but nothing too spectacular, and, to be honest, it takes a while for the deaths to be coming, and there simply aren't enough characters in the first place to warrant a mega-high death count.

Reccomended for a laugh, but nothing more, and if you've already seen the original Scary Movie, but not this. This film will make it seem even better.
