Last Summer is a deeply unsettling exploration of youth and friendship, set against the backdrop of Fire Island’s summer vibes. The pacing feels deliberately slow, allowing the viewer to absorb the atmosphere of carefreeness that soon turns dark. You really feel the tension brewing as the trio's bonds tighten, only to splinter when the outsider joins them. The performances are raw and authentic, capturing that mix of innocence and cruelty that often defines adolescence. The film's practical effects are subtle but effective, enhancing the emotional weight rather than overshadowing it. There's something about the way it tackles themes of jealousy and betrayal that lingers long after the credits roll, making it a unique piece in the landscape of late '60s cinema.
