Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: As they celebrate their high school graduation, four friends are involved in a hit-and-run accident when their car hits--and apparently kills--a pedestrian on an isolated roadway. They dispose of the body and vow to keep the incident a secret, but a year later somebody starts sending them letters bearing the warning 'I Know What You Did Last Summer.' At that point the panicked foursome becomes the target of an elusive serial killer whose disguise consists of a fisherman's slicker and a lethal ice hook. Part mystery and part slasher flick, this thriller was heavily hyped as a follow-up to Scream by screenwriter Kevin Williamson (who later created the TV series Dawson's Creek), and like Scream it's a showcase for a teenage cast including Jennifer Love Hewitt and Sarah Michelle Gellar. And while this shocker isn't as inspired as Scream, it's guaranteed to give its target audience a few good thrills as it dives toward a routine climax of mayhem and murder. Based (rather loosely) on the popular novel by Lois Duncan. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - They Wish Now They Had Called The Police!
"I Know What You Did Last Summer" is a modern slasher gem. This motion picture, along with "Scream," revitalized the slasher film industry. The screenplay for both were written by Kevin Williamson, former video clerk. "I Know What You Did Last Summer" is based on the best-selling young adult horror novel of the same title written by Lois Duncan. The occult thriller "Summer of Fear," starring Linda Blair, was also based on a novel written by Duncan.

Rating: - Mildly entertaining slasher similar to "Scream" in effect.
One could do worse than watching "I Know What You Did Last Summer". In fact, it's not all that bad for what it sets out to do. Perhaps I was not expecting much, and this may be why I found this movie to be somewhat entertaining. Alright, granted, Ryan Phillipe is a total wuss and his character is therefore incredibly unrealistic, but one usually has to suspend their sense of realism when watching these types of movies anyway. That being said, Phillipe's character is incredibly obnoxious and certainly ... Read More
Rating: - Kevin Williamson's Script Is On The Money.
Kevin Williamson made a good follow up to his Scream film, with this great film. The film about friends who do something and keep the secret is very terrifying and Williamson does this very good. Extra points go out to all the major hotties in the film.
Rating: - Slasher
Great slasher from the "screem era" of horror movies. And it looks fantastic on Blu-Ray!
Rating: - Kevin Williamson's first flop.
I Know What You Did Last Summer is pretty lame in every way possible. Two stars go to Ryan Phillipe and Sarah Michelle Gellar who make this horror flick not so unbearable. Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt on the other hand, can't act worth a dime. The plot is silly as well, these four drunk teens run over some guy after a 4th of July blowout. Kevin Williamson who wrote this movie is the mastermind behind the Scream franchise and the creator of Dawson's Creek, they even made a sequel to this movie ... Read More
