Based on a Stephen King novel, Carrie is the story of Carrie White. She is a girl brought up, almost in isolation, by her psychotically religious mother Margaret. After an embarrassing incident in the showers causes her fellow pupils to tease Carrie ruthlessly, her teacher Miss Desjardin disciplines them severely. Determined to have revenge, the other students hatch a plot against Carrie, which turns horribly wrong when Carrie's strange mental powers are unleashed during the school prom. Written by Goth {brooks@odie.ee.wits.ac.za}

Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) is the outsider of her class. She's a mousy girl, all of her classmates hate her, and her mother (Piper Laurie) is a religous fanatic who walks around in a black cape. After she unexpectedly has her first period, she is teased by the girls more ruthlessly than before. The gym teacher (Betty Buckley) punishes the girls that were involved and one of them, Sue Snell (Amy Irving), feels sorry for what she did and asks her boyfriend (William Katt) to take Carrie to the prom instead of her. But another girl that has been banned from the prom, Chris Hargenson (Nancy Allen), isn't so forgiving and hatches an evil plan with her boyfriend (John Travolta) that involves Carrie and a bucket full of pig's blood. But what none of the students realize is that Carrie has the power of telekenisis, the power to move things with your mind, and that when you make her mad, she transforms from an innocent girl to a rage-filled monster. And this is gonna be a prom no one will ever forget. Written by Will

Plot Summary:

In 1976, Sue Snell (Amy Irving) watched her life crumble as her boyfriend and most of her friends were killed by telekinetic Carrie White after she was humiliated by sadistic classmate Chris Hargenson at the school prom after being pronounced "Prom Queen." Now, 23 years later, Sue is a counselor at the new high school where she seems to develop most of her time on Rachel Lang (Emily Bergl), a troubled young girl whose best friend (Mena Suvari) has just committed suicide. Rachel is a normal girl, except for the fact that she can move things with her mind from time to time. Some of the football jocks are planning to humiliate Rachel at the "biggest party of the year," using the unknowing Jesse (Jason London) as bait, because she told on them being involved in her friend's death. If only everyone knew that Rachel is Carrie's half-sister... Written by Will

M.I.S.S.Y

I love the second one also. And I have noticed that Carrie's been on TV a lot lately!

WildAtHeart

I love both movies. I would like to see Carrie remade. It could do with an update cuz i noticed some younger teens who don't like the original version

M.I.S.S.Y

They did do a remake with Angela Beattis (Girl, Interrupted) as Carrie.

You can look it up on IMDB.com!

WildAtHeart

oh cool. i'll have to try to find it

M.I.S.S.Y

Just type in Angela Beattis

chasin' the wind

This movie was pretty good, what I saw of it. I saw the TV edit so I'm not sure what they took out.

But it wasn't quite as scary as I thought it was going to be.

jackiehydelover

Carrie is more of a supernatural film then a straight up horror film. I think just living her life is pretty scary in itself.

As for the sequel... No where near as good as the first but I thought that it was pretty decent.

chasin' the wind

Yes, it would be scary to be her.

Her mother freaked me out!

Moonlight~Pixie

I didn't really like that one.

~Karyson~

I liked the second one better. I haven't seen the original one in years.

Simon Spier

The original will always be a classic.

Carrie is one of my favorite Stephen King book/movie. I always felt so bad for Carrie.

GardenSirens

I"ve read all of King's books except 11/22/63, Doctor Sleep, Mr. Mercedes and Revial....and Carrie is one of my least favorite books of his. I just felt not as gripped and immersed in the world as I did some of the others. With that said, the movie De Palma did was fantastic. Too bad all that was ruined with the TV movie Carrie and then the sequel. I haven't seen the remake yet...but have very low hopes for it
