Trailer released for "I Know What You Did Last Summer."
For our younger readers, "I Know What You Did Last Summer" is viewed as a classic teen slasher. It was released in 1997 and the sequel "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" came out in 1998. There was another film that dropped in 2006 that nobody cares about or wants to acknowledge. There was also a 2021 TV series that wasn't too bad.
Now, fans are getting another movie decades after the originals with Freddie Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt, and it appears it'll be directly tied to the original story, judging from the preview.
Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
Generally speaking, remakes/sequels of classic films are something I'm always very hesitant about. We all remember the 2012 "Red Dawn" remake and the disaster that dumpster fire was for anyone with eyes and ears who watched. There are plenty of other examples.
However, seeing how some original cast members are returning makes me think "I Know What You Did Last Summer" *MIGHT* have some potential. After all, we have seen some success with a similar model to the "Scream" franchise.
Plus, Madelyn Cline - who burst onto the scene with "Outer Banks" - has a lot of growing star power. Grade-A casting decision for whoever made that call.
A solid female lead is a must for any slasher horror film.

We've been on a nice little horror run. "Sinners" is a must-watch film. "Weapons" with Josh Brolin looks fascinating, and we now have a look at "I Know What You Did Last Summer." Not a bad time for movies. You can catch it starting July 18th, and make sure to send me your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outick.com.
