Ich weiß, was Du letzten Sommer getan hast

This series is very different than the movies. Like night and day. Only similarity is the general idea of the past coming back to haunt you. I applaud them in trying to make it their own. So far it's better than I thought it was going to be but still not great. It's very slow-paced and seems more like a drama at times. It's definitely heavily influenced by Euphoria's aesthetic, but not as authentic. It's watchable and keeps my attention so I'd recommend giving it a try. Just keep your expectations to a minimum.

Wow. 27 minutes in and I'm like, "is this a horror movie?".

I'm not sure this qualifies as horror but hey, what a way to waste 30 minutes of setup.

This is potentially the worst slasher film series I've ever seen:

Considering this is based on a horror film that came out in 1997 most of its fan base are in their 30s atleast, yet it's aimed at teenagers. I was super excited to watch this having been a huge fan of the movies as a teen but it was a huge let down the shallow characters and their teenage dramas were not appealing to me at all and that's the parts I could actually see as the screen was so dark 90% of the time it was hard to make out what was going on.

Reading these other reviews, I'm starting to realize that people who say it's "woke" don't actually understand what "woke" is. Nothing about the premier felt forced or out of place. Newsflash! Teens do drugs and have sex with each other. It's called life. The production. Alyeska are good. The acting is serviceable. The problem I see is the "twist" in the 1st episode. It's different, but I can see it being harmful down the road. Especially with the character development of the main actress. For now I rate it a 5 for being exactly what it is, average. Maybe some slick writing will change my mind in future episodes.

It is unfortunate but, every time a new series comes out the IMDb is quickly flooded with negative reviews and "1" ratings. I say ignore those fools who get their kicks by trying to trash things.

This is an updated series with the old title and all new, attractive actors. There is no good reason to try to make any direct comparisons, it is just intended to be a fun show to pass the time. Nothing to be taken too seriously.

I say give it a try, it is free for all who already own the online subscription. If you enjoy it, fine. If you don't then quit watching. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

The first episode begins looking out over the Pacific Coast in Hawaii, the young adult girl gone for a year now coming home. But you don't have to watch very far to see the general theme of young adults behaving badly. For example, at an evening pool party one guy is full frontal naked and urinating into the swimming pool. This is not likely a show I'll continue to watch but I will give it a chance. The production values are sufficiently good and the actors are attractive.

There is no benefit to anyone writing a bad review with a "1" rating and saying "don't watch." Who do they think they are, my personal censor?

It is a TV show, not a solution to world hunger. It will entertain many.
