I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997)
A nice undemanding and relatively gore free slasher that hit cinemas in the wake of Wes Craven's Scream (1996).
At the time it was an enjoyable watch on the big screen but for me and my mates the 'Holy shit!' moment came as the film began with a gorgeous tracking shot along the North Carolina coastline accompanied by Type O' Negative's cover version of Summer Breeze.
The film never gets any better than that opening for these eyes and ears (Last night i watched it four times in succession) and although the film in itself is pretty unremarkable some of the photography is excellent.
The 88 Films Blu-ray is a revelation in comparison with the old EIV dvd which was shit even when it originally appeared on shelves back in 1999.
