Other than the basic concept, and a few minor details, I have no strong memory of 1997’s I Know What You Did Last Summer which, although is credited for helping revive the slasher genre following closely on the heels of the much more successful Scream, was ultimately a rather forgettable example of the genre. Skip ahead nearly 30 years and you’ve got a new version of the film which offers a similar set up of a car accident caused by a group of friends (Madelyn Cline, Chase Sui Wonders, Jonah Hauer-King, Tyriq Withers, and Sarah Pidgeon) who make a pact to cover it up rather than face the consequences of their actions. One year later, however, someone with a hook (and also knives and a speargun) begins targeting them and their loved ones. Are they smart enough to find the killer before they are all killed? Probably not as these aren’t exactly the smartest crop of victims to be targeted by a killer in a slasher flick.

Can't Hardly Wait

1998’s Can’t Hardly Wait is more charming than it has any right to be. Filled with a number of young actors, several of whom would go on to have success in Hollywood in the years to come, Ethan Embry plays all-around good guy Preston Meyers who at the graduation party plans to proclaim his love to recently dumped it girl Amanda Beckett (Jennifer Love Hewitt) who he’s been crushing on since Freshman year. Meanwhile, Amanda is attempting to discover who she is outside of being Mike Dexter’s (Peter Facinelli) ex-girlfriend.
