Life’s a beach and then someone dies in Slaughter Beach, a low budget horror-comedy slasher from the crew at Clockout Films. Last week, the film’s official premiere was hosted by Delco Horror Haven, a new non-profit horror organization dedicated to supporting indie horror in the greater Philadelphia area.
Director Daniel C. Davis (Same Dance) takes a different approach with his take on the serial killer subgenre. When two underachievers are unable to land jobs due to a serial killer ruining their beach town’s tourism and economy, the duo become low rent superhero crime fighters to end the murderer’s reign of terror. Ralph (Jon McKoy) and Barry (Ethan Han) develop their new personas, Awesome Boy and Bludgeon Man respectively, to form the Defender Benders and clean up the streets in their Bender Mobile.

The I Know What You Did Last Summer franchise is an interesting brand. Infamously, none of the films have a good score on rotten tomatoes. Yet, both I Know What You Did Last Summer and the sequel are beloved by fans. This month marks the 25th anniversary of I Still Know What You Did Last Summer and the horribly rated sequel – which has a horrendous rotten tomatoes score of 7% – still holds up in 2023. To recap, Julie James (Jennifer Love Hewitt) has survived the onslaught of Ben Willis’s (Muse Watson) wrath in the first film. The college

When people think of Jim Gillespie’s I Know What You Did Last Summer, they usually consider it a solid slasher. It certainly had an engaging lead cast—Jennifer Love Hewitt, Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Ryan Phillippe—and a script from Scream creator himself, Kevin Williamson. It even spawned an Amazon Prime spinoff series and is being featured as part of a “High School Horror” category on the Criterion Channel.
But that’s not the film this article is about. This is about the 1998 sequel that has a less positive reputation: Danny Cannon’s I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, which brought back Hewitt and Prinze Jr., but not Gillespie and Williamson. A lot of people tend to think of it as a lesser follow-up that is best left forgotten.

Twenty-six years after the release of the the slasher I Know What You Did Last Summer (watch it Here) and twenty-five years after the follow-up I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (watch that one Here), Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. are in talks to reprise the roles of Julie James and Ray Bronson in a new sequel! Deadline reports that Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge) will be directing the film from a screenplay by Leah McKendrick (M.F.A.).
Deadline explains that the idea for the new film came from Robinson and McKendrick, who blew studio execs away when they pitched this idea for a sequel last fall especially given the recent success of the Scream franchise. That film was recently relaunched with original cast members returning and the idea of bringing back original castmembers to draw in old school fans of the franchise while also...

Muse Watson Took An Intensely Physical Approach To Playing I Know What You Did Last Summer's Slasher
One of the cooler icons to emerge from the '90s teen-horror movie wave is the hook-wielding slayer of Jim Gillespie's "I Know What You Did Last Summer." The late '90s Kevin WIlliamson-penned adaptation of Lois Duncan's 1973 novel got a green light after Wes Craven's "Scream" became a smash hit. This time, the killer would don a hooded rain slicker and boots in seaside North Carolina, where quartet of teens' lives would change forever. Brainy brunette Julie (Jennifer Love Hewitt), rich, arrogant jock Barry (Ryan Phillippe), blonde beauty queen Helen ("Buffy's" Sarah Michelle Gellar), and aw-shucks everyman Ray (Freddie Prinze Jr.) are drunkenly celebrating their high school graduation when they hit a man with their car -- then they dump his body and swear to keep quiet. A mystery stalker taunts them a year later with notes proclaiming the film's title. For most of the movie,...
