A group of friends accidentally cause the death of a stranger on the 4th of July and decide to cover it up instead of coming clean. A year later, one (Madelyn Cline) receives an anonymous note stating that someone knows about their indiscretion. Guilty and afraid, the group digs into the past of their town, discovering that a similar incident took place in 1997, where a vigilante in a fisherman's coat carved up that year's hot twenty-somethings. They reach out to a survivor (Jennifer Love Hewitt) for advice before the bodies start piling even higher.
I never watched the original or any of the sequels so some of this was probably wasted on me. It's still pretty decent. I was a little annoyed at how indiscriminate the killings seemed to be but the Evil Monologue actually tied it all together, so I will give it points for that. Overall, a solid enough slasher. It's currently streaming on Netflix.
