The "I Know What You Did Last Summer" franchise has left a lasting impact on audiences, with the first film being particularly noteworthy for its thrilling and grounded portrayal of a vengeful antagonist. Ben Willis stands out as a compelling and underrated character, bringing a sense of realism to the story without delving into the supernatural realm. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. deliver captivating performances, drawing viewers in with their charisma and acting prowess. The sequel, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer," takes the characters on a harrowing adventure to an island, adding another layer of suspense and terror to the franchise. While some may overlook this installment as a credible sequel, the addition of Brandy Norwood as Carla contributes to the film's appeal and intensity. However, the franchise takes a misstep with "I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer," introducing supernatural elements that detract from the grounded nature of the original films. This departure from reality diminishes the impact of the storyline and characters, leading to a disappointing third installment that lacks the involvement of the main cast. The television series based on the franchise offers a different but enjoyable take on the story, adding credibility and entertainment value to the overall franchise. While the series was cut short, fans are eager for a reboot that promises to bring fresh energy to the familiar tale. It is hoped that the original cast will return, providing a seamless continuation of the beloved saga akin to the success of the "Scream" franchise.

This one is actually better in a literal few ways, one being the opening death and the other is the cinematography. Aside from those two bits, which obviously aren't enough to make up for anything, it's an extremely weak film. It's more remake of the original than a second sequel, painfully a rehash in a number of scenes in fact. None of the original cast return, none of the replacements are passable. As always with me, I don't have any dislike for the cast because it's hardly their fault when a film is of such low quality. This movie on its own is evidently one that'll be forgotten, even more so now given the 2025 release is going to be a direct sequel to its predecessor. Hardly a surprise!
