I Know What You Did Last Summer 1997 4K Digital

(3.5 stars for the movie, 5 stars for the 4K UHD disc)"I Know What You Did Last Summer" was released October 10, 1997 grossing $125.3 million against a production budget of $17 million. It was directed by Jim Gillespie from a screenplay by Kevin Williamson which was based in the novel of the same name by Lois Duncan. It received mixed reviews from critics. This slasher flick was quickly rushed into production to capitalize on the huge surprise success of "Scream" from 1996 which was also written by Kevin Williamson. Whereas "Scream" had a ton of meta dialogue & humor, "I Know What You Did Last Summer" is much more of a straight ahead slasher flick in comparison. The cast acquit themselves nicely as a whole though they don't have as much to work with as the cast of "Scream" did overall. While it won't win any awards for originality, it is a fun 90's slasher that has aged nicely in my opinion. Fans of the lovely Jennifer Love Hewitt will also find a lot to like here as she is incredibly beautiful and sexy throughout.Sony rolls out the red carpet for the 25th anniversary of "I Know What You Did Last Summer" by releasing it on 4K UHD blu-ray featuring a new 4K scan of the original camera negative. This new 4K digital intermediate was then graded for both HDR10 and Dolby Vision. Simply put, the film looks amazing on this 4K UHD release leaving the ancient standard definition bluray from 2008 (which is also included in this set rather than a remastered standard blu-ray) in the dust. While both the HDR10 and Dolby Vision encodes look fantastic, should you have a 4K television that supports Dolby Vision, I recommend going that route as the Dolby Vision encode has slightly better color saturation, contrast levels and black levels than the HDR10 version. While the HDR10 version looks great, Dolby Vision takes that superb visual fidelity & kicks it up another notch overall. The bit rate stays in the upper 70's and low 80's for the most part on the 4K UHD release so the 1 hour 41 minute film has ample room to breathe with no compression artifacts to be seen. Fans of the film will be ecstatic at how it looks on this 4K UHD release. I would place a safe bet that this is the best the film has ever looked.The English audio tracks are presented in both 7.1 Dolby Atmos and 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio. I found the Dolby Atmos mix to sound full and punchy. Other audio options include Czech 2.0 Dolby Digital, French 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, German 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, Hungarian 2.0 Dolby Digital, Italian 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, Portuguese 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio, Spanish 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and Spanish 2.0 Dolby Digital. Subtitles are included for the hearing impaired in a ton of different languages including English.The new extras on the 4K UHD disc are as follows:- deleted scenes- "My Own Favorite Summer" - an interview with director Jim Gillespie- "He Knows What You Did" - an interview with Muse WatsonExtras on the included standard blu-ray from 2008 are as follows:- Filmmakers' commentary- Director's short film: "Joyride" with optional commentary- "Now I Know What You Did Last Summer" featurette- Music video: "Hush" performed by Kula Shamer- theatrical trailerSony delivers an incredible looking and sounding 4K UHD blu-ray release for "I Know What You Did Last Summer" for its 25th anniversary. Fans who are 4K UHD blu-ray capable should pick it up without hesitation. Keep in mind though that the included standard blu-ray is not remastered however being the same disc from 2008.Highly recommended!

This is a great classic movie that I actually got to sit down and watch with my adult son and get to experience this movie all over again!

Received on time in good condition

Me gusta mucho esta película de terror de finales de los 90.Una buena presentación de esta edición de 4K UHD y Blu ray, la calidad de vídeo es excelente, es muy nítido, aunque el Blu ray no permite ir al menú principal y seleccionar escenas durante la reproducción de la película.No trajo el hermoso slip cover que vi en publicaciones de YouTube. Por eso mi calificación no es completa.

Love it

If you like this movie pick it up! Just hearing that opening song Summer Breeze by Type O Negative blasting through your speakers is well worth the price alone. The movie still holds up today.

I Know What You Did Last Summer is a horror movie that came out after the original Scream movie, and it was like the filmmakers were trying to make a movie that Scream was ripping on. It follows most of the "traditional" horror movie plot points, including a character feet away from safety who stops running. It starred Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., and Ryan Phillipe as a group of friends who are in a car that hits someone in the middle of an isolated road. Instead of calling an ambulance, they decide to dump the body in the ocean, and then the next summer they each start getting notes with the line "I know what you did last summer" written on them. From there, the typical indestructible killer storyline follows.The movie is okay, but not great by any means. It was pretty stupid in parts and really was mostly there to show off a group of ridiculously good-looking people in their early 20s. JLH was pretty much in tight, cleavage-bearing shirts the entire time, and SMG was in the midst of her breakout popularity from Buffy. This was also the movie in which she and Freddie Prinze Jr. met and led to one of the most stable Hollywood romances ever.For those who get the DVD, the extras a pretty light. You can choose to watch the movie fullscreen or widescreen, then there are trailers and a commentary track with the director and editor. Overall, the movie is what you pretty much expect it to be. The writing and acting are okay, but given all involved have done much better work, it could have been a better movie all around. It is not a must-see by any means, but if you are looking for a horror movie to have on in the background and kill a couple of hours, it is worth checking out.

Delivery: Amazon delivery held up, no damage to the cases and discs were still in the holder.Movie:Audio - Mind blowing that this came out in 1997 and sounds this good. Any movie near the 2000s have loud music/sfx and low dialog. The audio mix on this was well done, hard hitting bass in the opening title, yet it had clear dialog throughout. Kudos to the team responsible for the audio.Video - One of the best looking restorations. There are A LOT of dark scenes to kick this off. If you have a half decent player the blacks do hold detail and you get a great experience. With my Xbox, the blacks were a bit much and I was struggling to see the first 30 minutes.Give it a go and support the better movies of the past!
