Join hosts Samantha and Bonnie as they revisit the original I Know What You Did Last Summer films just in time for the newest installment (2025), debate on their favorite Fourth of July horror movies, discuss legacy sequels and summer slashers, and share why this franchise continues to maintain a special place in horror history (and their hearts). Not only that, but they also revisit their experience attending the premiere of the 2025 legacy sequel and share their thoughts after seeing the newest chapter on the big screen. And because this is from last summer, we can talk about how much we loved Sarah Michelle Gellar's cameo in the newest one... sorrynotsorry.
