Sissy Spacek, teen telekinesis, bullies and blood. Carrie’s deep emotional truths, powerful performances and eye-popping style redefined the horror genre.A shy girl, outcast by her peers and sheltered by her religious mother, unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom. Starring Sissy Spacek, Piper Laurie, John Travolta and Amy Irving. Adapted by Brian De Palma from a Stephen King novel.
“Carrie is about all the things it didn't know it was about: internalised misogyny and self-hate, and the theatre of cruelty involved in high school.
This horror masterpiece from 1976, mixing in tropes and tricks from Hitchcock’s Psycho, is now celebrating its 50th anniversary!
This is the extraordinary exploitation shocker that also conveyed an impassioned sympathy for a bullied teenage girl with telekinetic powers. It was a horror classic that didn’t conform to the narrative beats of the genre; it was a scary movie in which the terrifying demon was also the final girl.” Young Electrics
