Several teenagers in a small-town in Colorado concoct a July 4th prank based on a frightening legend that goes awry when their friend ends up accidentally killed; however, the teens agree to keep their involvement a secret from the authorities, who continue to search for the man who apparently killed their friend. A year later, with the July 4th celebration coming up again, the teenagers realize that they're being stalked by someone who clearly intends on keeping the horrible legend alive by killing them off.
A direct-to-video third installment in the I Know What You Did Last Summer franchise, this film is widely regarded as one of the weakest entries in the slasher genre. The plot is a near-carbon copy of the original with no fresh ideas, transplanted to Colorado with minimal effort. The acting is largely amateur, with performances that fail to generate tension or investment. Cinematography is passable for a low-budget DTV production but unremarkable. Novelty is essentially nonexistent — it recycles the exact premise of the originals with even less creativity and introduces a supernatural twist that feels lazy rather than inventive. The ending offers little resolution or satisfaction.
