I Saw What You Did (1988 film)


I've listed this article for peer review because I would like to improve it, if possible, to GA status; or as much as is possible anyway with such a film. The main problem is finding sources. What I need is any sources that could provide useful information for the movie's production or its reception. Especially the latter, since something tells me any information on its production is nonexistant.

Thank you in advance for anything you find. I'm sure it wouldn't have been easy. PanagiotisZois (talk) 20:07, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

This is a fun an interesting selection. If you do not already have a Newspapers.com account, I would encourage you to get one through the Wikipedia Library as I found that resource to be invaluable for older topics like this one. I have clipped a few potential helpful articles from there and included them below: I hope these sources are a good starting point. Given when the film was released, I would not be surprised if most of the coverage would be in newspapers and magazines, it can be somewhat difficult to get access to those (as I would imagine that a lot of people would not think to digitize articles about this film).

 * "Bad boy, naughty girls" : This one has a negative review of the movie.
 * "New 'Vice' Shows Surfacing" : This one is only a passing mention, but it is another negative review abut Fred Walton gaining a reputation as a "B-moviemaker who merely recycles old themes".
 * "'I Saw What You Did'": This one mentions when the production started and where it was filmed.
 * "'I Saw What You Did': A Chiller With an Uncompromising Payoff": This one has a more substantial review.
 * Thank you. :D I did consider using newspaper articles myself, especially since given the age of the movie and its nature as a TV movie of all things, it's doubtful there'd be much coverage in online sources. Sadly, even years later, I still don't know much on where to find them and whatnot. I guess I'll follow your advice. PanagiotisZois (talk) 10:05, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I am glad that I could help. I did not do a super deep dive into the newspapers sources so hopefully, there are more present in the Newspapers.com. You could also try reaching out to local librarians in your area. I know that is more of a pain, but it may be helpful to locate sources that did not make the jump to digital. Either way, best of luck, and hats off to you for choosing a very obscure subject. Aoba47 (talk) 16:37, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I guess I can try library sources. But I swear to God, if there's a library in Greece of all countries, near my house, that has newspaper clippings about this movie, I'll kill myself. PanagiotisZois (talk) 16:50, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I would be surprised if even US libraries have sources lol. You could try emailing librarians in the US. I am not sure if it would help, but just wanted to raise another potential way of getting sources. Aoba47 (talk) 19:35, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
