I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer

On July 4th, in the small Broken Ridge, Colorado, the teenagers Colby (David Paetkau), his girlfriend Amber (Brooke Nevin) and their friends Zoe (Torrey DeVitto), Roger (Seth Packard) and PJ (Clay Taylor) play a prank with the legend of the Fisherman that kills teenagers with dirty little secrets with his hook in an entertaining park. However, when PJ jumps with his skateboard, there is an unexpected accident and PJ dies. The group stays together and makes a covenant to keep their secret. One year later, Amber receives messages in her cell-phone telling that "I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer" and she gathers her friends to find who might have told about their prank. They find that PJ's cousin Lance (Ben Easter) also knows what they did. Sooner they find that a dark man wearing slicker is chasing them with a hook to kill each one of them.

"I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer" is an unoriginal collection of clichés. The forgettable story is very weak and a rip-off of the two other movies, only worse. The deaths are not original; the acting is average; the situations are predictable in accordance with the worse clichés of the genre and the conclusion is awful. My vote is four.

Title (Brazil): "Eu Sempre Vou Saber o Que Vocês Fizeram no Verão Passado" ("I Will Always Know What You Did Last Summer")

No pun intended and not in a good way either. Off its tracks? Well off in many regards. Also morally speaking - I never was a fan of pranks, but this really brings this to whole new heights (maybe pun intended). So from the start (or quite early on) you will not have the best feelings for our main characters. Yes the original movies had them do something not clever either - but it was not as .. crazy as this one.

I also don't think I had seen this one before. I remember having seen the other two movies. They even are connected - this is almost like a reboot. Which probably is also true of the tv show, that I will be watching next or rather in the next few days - since it only has one season anyway.

No offense to the actors and I don't even blame them. They do the best they can with what they are served. The premise obviously was not strong enough to make this succesful. Thankfully most will say - because it wasn't any good. Not even the deaths/murders saved it.

I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer it's not clear who it was filmed for and raises only questions. Why was it filmed? Why did the film somehow become part of the original series? How didn't you hesitate to release it? I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer is formally a response to I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. But it's only on paper. In fact, I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer is bad in everything. There is a bad direction, terrible editing and camera work, not expressive acting of the main characters, just the most boring plot. The film's budget was clearly a couple of tens of hundred dollars, and most people took part in it either because of pity or somehow forced. I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in general.

The stage curtains open ...

If the movie, "The Room", didn't already exist, this catastrophe would get my vote for the worst film ever. The Fisherman is back with his ever deadly hook and slicker, terrorizing a whole new group of young secret-holders. The only problem is, we are no longer in a coastal town. In fact, we are in the midwest, nowhere NEAR water. A fisherman would stick out about as bad as the horned, red devil himself wielding a fiery trident.

The story is flawed and weak, it's execution even worse. The acting...well, let's just say there isn't any. The cinematography sucks. That's a good word for it ... sucks. The characters are nothing more than fresh bait for the killer, nobody you care for or are invested in. The plot, at best, is cookie cutter. All the usual horror fluff is shown here, but done infinitely better in just about any other horror film. And finally, the ending is SO out of left field that you are left scratching your head in bewilderment. I think you've got the picture.

If you are up late one night, with nothing to do and nothing else to watch and you have the opportunity to watch this movie, go outside and count the little stones on your front porch. That would be a lot more entertaining and fun.

This movie made it on to my List of Worst Sequels/Prequels Ever. And deservedly so.

This third installment was a huge drop in quality. The story felt like a recycled version of the original but without any of the charm, tension, or decent characters. The acting was weak, the script was full of clichés, and the twist at the end was just ridiculous. It tried to keep the franchise alive but ended up feeling like a low-budget fan film. There was no connection to the original characters, which made it feel completely disconnected. Even the killer's presence wasn't scary-just predictable and dull. The atmosphere lacked suspense, and most of the scenes were just plain boring. I give it a 3/10. It didn't need to exist.
