What It Do - I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)
What better way to step into Spooky Season than with a brand new season of ScaryCrit?!
We're kicking off S11 with some bombastic news: we'll be guests at the Fayetteville Fan Fest on October 18th! A huge thank you to El'Ja Bowens for the opportunity, we can't wait!
We're also very excited to dig right into season 11 and we thought it'd be fun to come full circle and Crit the legacy sequel of the film that was our very first ScaryCrit. That's right! Today we're going back to Southport to talk this year's I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025). From the new characters, killer enigmatic motives and an incredibly just inclusion, there's a lot here to get hooked on. We're just so happy to be back! Thank y'all for still being here and cheers to more ScaryCrit. Happy listening!
