Do You Wanna Know a Secret?
SLASHERS
Reviewed by The Horrorist

A group of college kids on Spring Break are hunted by a hooded killer who leaves a note saying, “Do you wanna know a secret?” In DYWKaS, as we hardcore fans call it, we’re treated to an especially dark twist in the somber career of Joey Lawrence, who digs deep as the tension and depth of the plot just weaves a woven blanket of…

I can’t even type this with a straight face. Shit… that’s the end of the sentence, this movie is shit that’s weaved into woven shit. It’s a sad carbon copy of a movie that wasn’t very good in the first place, I Know What You Did Last Summer, but without the roles being played by cool or at least semi-cool actors, and without the good soundtrack, decent dialog and entertaining though simplistic plot. So take anything decent about IKWYDLS away, and put in Joey Lawrence and a dollop of stupid and you have DYWTKaS. Enjoy!

There’s not much worth mentioning, really. The plot is simple and mindless, the dialog is just painful and the performances bizarre. I mean maybe the cooler college kids (the first scene takes place in a frat) take turns reciting really weird, stupid poetry about partying when they go on vacation.

Joe actually isn’t bad at all, and had I not read his name on the credits, I might not’ve even recognized him without his do.

Unfortunately, taking a killer that looks like a Dollar-store version of Ghostface from Scream, and a story that sucks, full of characters that suck, you can’t get much more than a big bowl of suck. I won’t spoil it by telling you what the secret is, but I’ll tell you what it’s not, that this movie sucks. No secret there.

1 out of 10 movies that just didn't aspire to meet it's true potentials. Yeah, right.
