It is a performances centric movie

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The original Jennifer Love Hewitt film is obviously the only good one in the series, the sequel also with Hewitt was rubbish, and I was sure this third film straight to DVD instalment would be bad as well, directed by Sylvain White (Stomp the Yard, The Losers). Basically on July 4th, in the small town of Broken Ridge, Colorado, teenagers Colby Patterson (David Paetkau), his girlfriend Amber Williams (Brooke Nevin) and their friends Zoe Warner (Torrey DeVitto), Roger Pack (Seth Packard) and P.J. Davis (Clayton 'Clay' Taylor) are at a town carnival. At the carnival entertaining park they decide to play a prank, using the legend of the Fisherman that appears on July 4th to stalk and kill teenagers with dark secrets with his hook. They are successful in scaring a number of the people attending, however the prank gets out of hand and goes wrong when P,J. is performing a trick jumping with his skateboard, and an unexpected accident occurs, when P.J.'s body is found impaled on a pipe, the public believe it to the be the Fisherman behind the death, so Colby convinces the others to burn the evidence and make a pact that the secret will die with them. A year later, Amber receives 50 identical text messages on her cellphone, from an unknown number, saying "I Know What You Did Last Summer", she automatically gathers that this is referring to the accidental death they caused. Amber goes in search of Zoe and Roger, and Colby who she parted with, to find out if they told anyone else about what they said they would take to the grave, all have moved on into different career and personal circumstances, none of them have said anything to anyone, however P.J.'s cousin Lance (Ben Easter) also knows what they did somehow. Soon enough the situation gets worse when a man dressed as the real Fisherman wearing the dark slicker is chasing the teenagers with a hook to kill each of them, the killer is towards the end revealed to be the decomposed Ben Willis (Don Shanks), the man who brutally committed the original murders ten years ago, but even shoving his head into a thresher doesn't stop him reappearing a year later as the Fisherman to kill last survivor Amber. Also starring K.C. Clyde as Deputy Hafner, Michael Flynn as Sheriff Davis, Brittanie Nicole 'Britt' Leary as Kim and Star LaPoint as Kelly. The story may not be repeating what was seen in the previous two films, it is a completely new story as teenagers accidentally kill someone in different circumstances, and the gore created by the killer stalking the teens is still the hook, but it has a silly and rushed script, lame acting and a predictable plot, it's just another daft (more so than the second) sequel, a dreadful horror. Pretty poor!

Okay I normally stay well clear of the recent straight to video or DVD slasher movies, cause they are poorly made, terrible acting and well the list goes on, but through the years there have been some rather decent ones, but unfortunately this isn't one of them.Well it's been 9 years since the previous sequel, and well it does seem rather pointless bringing another one after all this time and plus I was a big fan of the first two, which were both fun and I did hope that they would have some fresh ideas for the third instalment but nope it's basically the same thing just with less production values and no star power whatsoever. This is just plods along with seemingly no effort and even the characters are carbon copies from the first movie (and not very good ones either), okay it does actually work on the so bad it's good scale in some places like when a character is about to commit suicide and then gets spooked by a coat and then gets killed, a classically cheesy moment I must say and the big reveal at the end of the killer was just priceless and stupid.All in all stick to "I Know" and "I Still Know" they're a million times better, this one brings nothing new or interesting to the story.

A group of teenagers play a prank that goes horribly wrong and results in the death of a friend, however only they know the truth that it was a prank...But a year later it seems that someone knows about what happened.I watched this when it went straight to DVD, simply because of Torrey Devitto. Compared to other slasher movies it actually gives you the 'slashing' element of the film, there is blood and gore, spooky calls in the middle of the night. Yes, the acting could be better, but the ensemble is relatively new to acting in an actual movie...so, I'll let it slide. Brooke Nevin is definitely the scream Queen, at times her scream is terrifying enough.A satisfactory slasher movie.

The third part of this series was no fun. Some more kids start getting killed by the fisherman because of a prank that went wrong. It all follows the same format as the original--first a couple people get intimidated, then a couple minor characters die, and finally in the third act, the killer stops playing and gets a few of the major characters before being killed off by the female lead. If you can't wait to see another sequence in which some one looks around an abandoned room asking, "Hello? Who the hell's there?" until the chase begins, then you should see this movie right away.I did like the girl who played Zoe and her performance at the talent competition. That was about it.Apparently the fisherman is now an undead, unkillable spirit, along the lines of Jason or Freddy. He appears to punish teens who accidentally kill someone and don't tell the truth about it. The only way I got through this movie was by doing other tasks while it played. If they make a fourth installment, that's probably how I'll watch that one, too.
