Julie
(Jennifer Love Hewitt) and Ray (Freddie
Prinze Jr.) are trying to move on after
that awful incident that happened two
summers ago with the killer Ben Willis
(Muse Watson) is over and can carry on
with their lives.
Julie is still tormented in her
nightmares about it and sees
hallucinations too.
However, to get things off of her mind
both Julie and her roommate Karla Wilson
(Brandy) win a trip with their friends to
the Bahamas after receiving a call to
their favourite radio station.
However, Julie's boyfriend Ray stays
behind due to work while they are on
thier trip which is nonstop partying for
them.
But one night while Ray and his co-worker
Dave (John Hawkes) are driving to the
boat station as they managed to get away
from work hoping to meet up with everyone
there Dave gets slayed by a man is a
fisherman's uniforms wearing a hook and
Ray is driven to go to the island and try
to rescue Julie and her friends before
it's too late.
Meanwhile Julie and her friends are
having fun with their karaoke machine but
suddenly on the machine the words come up
saying "I Still Know What You Did
Last Summer" which trips Julie out
convinced that Ben is out to get ther and
later on she is convinced after she spots
some dead corpses on the island.
A wonderful sequel with a
different surrounding to it alltogether.
It offers alot of twists like in the
first one as you wonder if the killer is
back or is it someone else.
It is very dark and spooky but still
offers black comedy in it too and a
sequel worth checking out as you won't be
disappointed
The acting is
terrifically performed with more
suspenseful terror with their characters
too.
Jennifer Love Hewitt returns to
her role again and she has the best
energy in her performance being
frightened again from what happened in
the first film showing she still has what
it takes to reprise her role.
We have another returning role by Freddie
Prinze Jr. as he acts well with his
no more of this crap attitude on killing
this killer.
Singer Brandy was wonderful as
the nice, outgoing friend and roomate to Hewitt's
character bringing alot of pizzaz to her
role.
Matthew Settle has tons of high
energy with his performance as an unusual
friend of the pack going on the trip.
Jennifer Esposito played a
wonderful and arrogant bartender in the
film
Bill Cobbs stood out well as a
local there and was very mysterious with
his role.
Wait a sec, we've also got an uncredited
supprting role by Jack Black as
he brings alot of humor playing a
potheaded crazed parry animal in the
film. I couldn't understand why he wasn't
credited in the film as he does quite
well.
A person is
stabbed in the chin by a hook as well as
another victim in the neck.
There are some bloody corpses too all
battered up
There's also lots of gruesome stabbings
Danny Cannon is
the man for this film making it truly
mysterious with all the surroundings
involving the plot in this film and
whipped everyone into great.
He shows a great dream sequence which
involves Jennifer Love Hewitt as
she confesses her sins and then you jump
when it shows the face of Muse Watson
ready to attack her as he was
supposed to be a preacher.
There's also a nice setting in a dance
club which involves Hewitt along
with her friend Brandy as it
looked like real friends hanging out.
During this moment Hewitt shows
great shocked and frightened expressions
when she sees images of Watson's
character appearing in the lounge
wondering if she is imagining it.
Then there's the phone call which
involves both Brandy and Hewitt
of winning the contest to go to the
Bahama's as they looked believeably
excited when they scream for joy that
they've won.
A nice camera shot on a car parked in the
middle of the road with a corpse dangling
out which involves Freddie Prinze Jr.
and supporting actor John Hawkes.
Prinze shows a terrific reaction
to this knowing that the killer is back.
Then there's great blocking by Watson
when he pulls Hawkes' character
out of the truck with his hook showing
great action, jumps and terror. A true
classic moment for a sequel
There's a great camera shot on a
doverman pincher barking at the front
desk of the resort which gives you an
impression that the business there is
terrible.
Hewitt performs well performing a
karaoke song of "I Will
Survive" and it's awesome when she
turns around to look at the words to the
karaoke song the letters come up saying
"I Still Know What You Did"
then during that moment we see a great
freaked out reaction from her.
Afterwards she walks into her room and
sees an envelope with her name signed on
it and she shows great frightened
emotions when she slowly walks up to the
letter and slowly opens the card up and
BAM!!! Matthew Settle comes up
from behind her and frightens her half to
death accidentally.
Small but effective actor Benjamin
Brown reacts well when he is out at
the pier at night of the resort wondering
if he is being watched.
Jack Black is well directed
playing a pothead liking to play harmless
games too with the direction of this
story.
A nice soft moment we get to see in an
outsdoor pool scene which involves both Brandy
and Makhi Phifer making out
which looks believeably romantic as
boyfriend and girlfriend. Then after Hewitt
spots a dead corpse in her closet (Her
shrieking was right on) she does well
running towards them telling everyone
that it's happeneing again. Leaving a
great impression for a sequel like this
as well.
The direction between Phifer
being sarcastic with Hewitt about
a murder in the hotel room was well done
as you just wanna yell at him.
Another person that was well directed was
Jeffrey Combs as the manager of
the resort showing negativity about
leaving the island.
Supporting actor Bill Cobbs
appears very frightening and dark with
his appearance when he tries to tell the
people there he wants to protect them.
Hewitt is terrific spilling her
guts out during a strom in a forest
shouting for Ben Willis.
Cobbs also behaves evil towards
Settle's character when they are out
at the ocean with a rowboat too wondering
if he is the killer but of course it's
too obvious.
A real classic dialogue sequence was
between Hewitt and Settle
as Settle shows an evil
expression as well as with his words when
he reveals his secret towards her and her
reactions are just perfect.
A camera pans on Prinze when he
pointing a gun as he has the expression
that he's not going to take crap from
anyone till he rescues his girffriend
from the island.
A brawling between Prinze and Settle
during a thunderstorm in the mud
looked so brutally perfect and very
intense too.
The dark scene's of the thunderstorms
occuring at the resort, pier and forest
also looked gloomy and well shot.
John Frizzell takes
on the music for this exciting sequel as
he performs fast and suspenseful
classical music making sure every bit of
it is entertaining.

for a large spike] Seriously, don't

Ray Bronson: Let her go, Willis!
Ben Willis: Or what? What are you

Ray Bronson: Let her go NOW!
Ben Willis: Think about it, boy.
You're no killer. That's my job! You
don't have it in you!
Tyrell:

or Jason or somebody?
