New Release Review - "I Know What You Did Last Summer"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2025-07-24

I Know What You Did Last Summer is the latest belated horror sequel to annoyingly adopt its predecessor's title. You might argue that with the titles I Still Know What You Did Last Summer and I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer having already been taken by sequels, this fourth instalment had run out of options. But it's still bloody annoying. You tell someone your favourite movie is Halloween, and they're like "Really? That bad slasher movie from 2018?" or worse, "I presume you mean the 2007 original?". I guess the studio suits worry that younger viewers won't have seen the original movies, but if this is the case why bring back the original characters? If you aren't aware that this IKWYDLS is the third sequel to a movie from 1997 you'll be pretty confused when Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr show up.
