About This Movie

I Saw What You Did is a curious blend of crime and horror, with director William Castle weaving a tense atmosphere that keeps you on edge. The film revolves around two teenage girls, Kit and Libby, who dabble in prank phone calls. But things take a dark turn when one of their targets becomes embroiled in a chilling double murder. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but the film captures that youthful thrill and naivety, plunging into the consequences of their actions. The practical effects are modest, yet effective, adding a raw edge to the horror elements. The performances, particularly from the leads, lend an authentic feel to the tension, making it a distinctive piece in Castle's oeuvre. It’s fascinating to watch how the innocent fun spirals into something sinister.
