Review of I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998) by Rex F — 29 Dec 2018

This is a movie that tried to be scary but ultimately became the exact opposite. This poorly made follow up to the hit 1997 slasher film "I Know What You Did Last Summer" is only notable for how utterly ridiculous it is. As in the original film, Jennifer Love Hewitt's acting is solid, but this time it's wasted on a cliche, unimaginative, illogical, and beyond cheesy script. The writers were aware that with the fisherman killer's identity being revealed at the end of the last film, this one wood loose the mystery element. So what did they do? They worked in a "big reveal" for the ending, and God did it suck. Nothing sums up this film better than its title. Cause if you think about it, the first film mostly took place a year after the summer our four main.

Protagonists hit and supposedly killed a stranger on the street, hence the title, "I Know What You Did Last Summer." Now that's all well and good, but then we get to the sequel, which takes place a year after the original. So shouldn't this have technically been called, I Still Know What You Did Two Summers Ago?
