Another Summer Slice And Dice

As foretold this morning my review for the latest installment of the I Know What You Did Last Summer franchise has arrived -- click on over to read it at Mashable. And what can I say except -- spoiler alert -- I liked it just fine! It's weird and it seems to actually like its main characters and (most importantly) it goes out of its way over and over and over again to properly honor the icon that is Helen Shivers -- how could I possibly complain? That said I can already tell my opinion's going to be the unpopular one -- I went to add my review to the film's Rotten Tomatoes page and was met by a great big green splat. Oh well. I've been off-brand with all the general opinions on horror movies this year, so this is just another chapter in an ongoing trend. What can I say -- the movie is dumb as hell but I had a good time, and it's got a couple of fan-service cameos that made my toes curl. I'm easy. In summation please also say hello to Joshua Orpin, who I also mentioned in this morning's earlier post -- let's get that pretty boy into my field of vision a lot more often stat.
