A young high school girl, abused, bullied and grown up in an overprotective environment with her overly Christian mother, finds out she has telekinetic abilities. She tries very hard to get out of her timid self and start a new life but one final prank she falls for in the senior prom is what will make her understand the full extend of her powers.
When you get Brian De Palma directing something that Stephen King wrote, there is no way in hell that this won't be an instant classic! Incredible atmosphere and a story as good as its' writer's name with just the right doses of drama and horror that you need. I like the way this film can be turned into an urban legend and certainly photography plays a big role in that.
Sissy Spacek plays Carrie here and I don't think they could find someone better for the role. Super-white complexion, thin figure and eyes turning fast from innocent to maniac. Nancy Allen is the classic high school bitch and John Travolta is her douchebag boyfriend. Amy Irving and William Katt are just too benign for the school they are in while Piper Laurie is the maniac Christian mother with nothing other than Jesus up her ass.
Must watch this : on a cool autumn evening, with a glass of red wine and some pizza. Then go out and try to use your force.
