In 2013, a re-make of this film was made which got quite a bit of publicity. Carrie (2013) That was the moment I first heard about this film. I saw the original was rated a lot higher, so I decided to watch this film. Initially, the film was still OK, although it was certainly not a high-flyer. The story about a girl who was bullied in high school was very unbelievable and yet also very predictable and cliché. But there was also abominable acting. And everyone was happy about that. However, what was supposed to be the highlight of the film exceeded even my wildest expectations. What a ridiculously bad movie this is. And it went on for a while, too, when Carrie went home. As if the movie wasn't bad enough already. No, this is really ridiculously awful. And who is going to make a re-make of that?

A very nice film about the girl Carrie who, among other things, by being bullied by her classmates at the end of the film changes into a killing machine. Sissy Spacek portrays the role of Carrie very well. But the show is kind of stolen by Piper Laurie as the crazy mother of Carrie. The rest of the cast is decent.

The climax at the ball is very strong. The scene in which Carrie kills everyone is pretty intense, especially because she doesn't make any distinction between her victims. What is also striking about the film is the very strong camera work and the plug and emotional music by Pino Donaggio.

4.5*

Rewatch !

Hadn't written a review here yet, it's been a long time since I'd seen this movie again. Seen it a few times, but now it was a long time ago. Still a good film with the iconic bloody Sissy Spacek in a star role. Travolta actually only has a very small role, I didn't remember that. The story has a long build-up, but a successful one with a great finale in the end. Those split screens, the slow motion images, the accelerated slow that drives you crazy are fun scenes that I couldn't remember anyway. The ending, perhaps the most terrifying for most people, was still in my memory. Still, I go for Sissy Spacek herself as the most effective horror element in the film, namely that deadly look of hers...brrrr. This is a horror film that simply remains timeless. A big 8/10
