Plot
One year after the brutal murders of her friends, Helen Shivers and Barry Cox, by the vengeful fisherman, Ben Willis, Julie James is attending summer classes in Boston, but suffers from nightmares of the incident. Julie's roommate, Karla Wilson, receives a phone call from a local radio station and wins a vacation for four to the Bahamas. Julie invites her boyfriend, Ray Bronson, who, despite initially declining, decides to go. That evening, Ray and his co-worker, Dave, drive to Boston to surprise Julie, but stop due to a body in the middle of the road. When Ray discovers the body is a mannequin, Ben appears and kills Dave with his hook, then chases Ray in a truck, but Ray escapes and falls down a hill.
The next morning, Julie, Karla, Karla's boyfriend, Tyrell Martin, and their friend, Will Benson, depart for the trip. The group arrives at the hotel in Tower Bay and checks in. Meanwhile, Ray flees from the hospital and pawns the ring he was planning to propose to Julie with in exchange for a revolver. That evening at the hotel's bar, Julie is singing karaoke when the words, "I still know what you did last summer" roll on-screen. Terrified, she runs back to her room. Will confesses he likes Julie.
After murdering a dockhand named Darick, Ben slices Olga, the housekeeper, dragging her into a room. While the others get into a hot tub, Julie finds Darick dead in the closet of her room. Horrified, she informs them, but Darick's body is missing; Mr. Brooks, the hotel manager, refuses to believe her story. Mr. Brooks notes they are unable to leave the island due to an incoming storm. By the pool, Titus Telesco is murdered. Ray, who has survived his injuries, heads out to rescue Julie.
