''I Know What You Did Last Summer'' is a 1997 American slasher film based on the 1973 novel of the same name by Lois Duncan. The film changes many aspects of the book, which was not a slasher novel. The film also draws inspiration from the urban legend known as The Hook. The film stars Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Phillippe and Freddie Prinze, Jr., with Anne Heche and Bridgette Wilson appearing in supporting roles. ''I Know What You Did Last Summer'' centers on four friends who are being stalked by a killer, one year after covering up a car accident in which they were involved. The film was directed by Jim Gillespie, from a screenplay written by Kevin Williamson, writer of ''Scream''. ''I Know What You Did Last Summer'' received mixed reviews from critics, but was commercially successful, grossing over $125 million at the box office.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Daily Box Office Calendar )〕 It was also nominated for and won multiple awards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=I Know What You Did Last Summer - Awards )〕 As a result, the film has been parodied and referenced in popular culture. The film was followed by two sequels, ''I Still Know What You Did Last Summer'' (1998) and the straight-to-DVD release ''I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer'' (2006). Though the former film sees a continuation of the plotline established in its predecessor, the latter film establishes a new plotline and does not star any cast members from the previous two installments. ==Plot== On July 4, 1996, four high-school seniors - Julie, her boyfriend Ray, Julie's best friend Helen, and her boyfriend Barry - drive to an isolated beach after drinking at a party. While driving home, Ray becomes distracted and accidentally hits a pedestrian, apparently killing him. As they argue over what to do, another teenager, Max, stops nearby. Julie convinces him that everything is all right and he drives off. Over Julie's protests, the group decides to dispose of the stranger's body. They take the man down to the docks to dispose of his body, but he revives and attacks them before falling into the water and drowning. One year later, Julie is home from college for the summer. She receives a letter containing a note that says, "I know what you did last summer." When she tells Barry and Helen about the note, Barry suspects Max. The trio go to the docks where Max works as a fisherman. Barry warns Max, then threatens him with a hook. Julie discovers that Ray also works there, and he tries to reconcile with Julie. Later, Max is killed by a figure in a rain slicker wielding a hook. Barry is at a gym when he discovers a note in his locker containing a picture of his BMW and the message, "I know." Going outside, Barry is almost run over by the rain slicker-wearing figure, who is driving his car. Julie reveals that the name of the person they hit was David Egan. As Ray still suspects Max, Julie and Helen thinks the killer might be a local relative, so they head out to the Egans' residence deep in the inland swamps. They find David's moody older sister Missy, who explains that David's death devastated their family. Missy tells them that someone called "Billy Blue" came by to pay respects after David died, claiming to be his friend. Helen returns home that night and prepares for the Fourth of July parade the next morning. Max's killer sneaks into her house, cuts off her hair in the night, puts her tiara in her bed and writes, "Soon", in lipstick on her mirror. As Julie goes to Helen's house she finds Max's corpse, wrapped in Barry's jacket, in her trunk. When she goes to show the others, the body is missing, causing Barry to think she hallucinated. Julie, Helen and Barry confront Ray about the recent events. Ray claims that whoever knows is after him too and that he received a similar letter. As Helen and Barry participate in the Fourth of July parade, Barry keeps an eye out for the killer, but notices several people wearing the same kind of dark rainslicker. Chasing one, Barry leaves Helen on one of the parade floats. As it passes by a two-story building, she notices a shadowy figure in a black rainslicker wield a hook threateningly. Julie revisits Missy to ask her more about David Egan and "Billy Blue". Missy tells Julie that David is dead and shows her a suicide note he left. As the writing matches that of the note she received, Julie tries convincing Missy that it is not a suicide note but a threat; Missy orders her to leave. Julie further researches David Egan's death. A year before the accident, he and his girlfriend Susie were involved in a car crash not far from the scene of the foursome's accident. David survived, but Susie died. The research mentions Susie's father, Ben Willis. Julie realizes that they did not run over David Egan that night but Ben, who killed David and disposed of the body that night. At the annual Croaker Pageant, Helen's reign as Croaker Queen is about to end. While watching from a balcony, Barry is killed. Helen rushes upstairs with a police officer, but they find no sign of the killer or Barry. The officer thinks Helen imagined it and offers to take her home. When their road is blocked by a barricade they have to drive down an alley, where they spot a stalled truck. The officer is quickly killed by a dark figure with a hook. Helen escapes and rushes to her family's store, where her sister Elsa lets her in. The killer enters through a side door and slashes Elsa's throat. The killer pursues Helen, killing her steps away from the parade. Julie goes to the docks to tell Ray her theory, but he does not believe her. She notices the name of the boat he's working on: ''Billy Blue''. Julie panics, believing Ray is the murderer, and runs off. As Ray chases her, a fisherman stops him and puts her on his boat for safety. She looks around the boat and finds a room that contains photos and articles about her, Helen, Barry and Ray and realizes she is on Ben Willis’s boat. Ben sets the boat adrift and chases Julie. Ray catches up to Ben's boat with a motorboat. He uses the ship's rigging to cause Ben to lose his hook-carrying arm as he plummets over the side. All that is found of Ben is the severed arm with the hook in the hand. When the police question Julie and Ray, they deny having any idea why Ben would have wanted to kill them. A year later, Julie is getting ready to return to her hometown for another summer to see Ray. As she enters the showers, she notices that one of the steamy glass doors has the sentence "I still know," written on it. As she looks around, a dark figure crashes through the door. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I Know What You Did Last Summer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
