During the annual July 4th festivities in a North Carolina fishing town,
Helen (
Sarah Michelle Gellar) wins a local beauty contest and departs with her boyfriend
Barry (
Ryan Philippe) and pals
Julie (
Jennifer Love Hewitt) and
Ray (
Freddie Prinze Jr.). On their way back home,
Ray hits a fisherman with her car. The teens panic, drop the body in the water, and abandon the scene. Many months later when
Julie returns from college, she gets an anonymous note: "I know what you did last summer." The four teens suspect the note was written by their classmate
Max (
Johnny Galecki), but then
Max is murdered -- and the terror begins. (In the original
Lois Duncan novel, the teens hit a small boy on a bicycle instead of a fisherman.) The screenplay is by
Kevin Williamson, whose credits include the 1996 box-office hit
Scream.
