Carrie

In this first-ever adaptation of a Stephen King novel, Carrie tells the story of a shy and lonely high school girl who endures daily humiliation from her classmates and abuse from her fanatically religious mother. Pushed to her breaking point, she unleashes her frustration and rage through supernatural powers. Driven by its compelling female characters, this monumental horror classic marks the beginning of Brian De Palma's "Red Period," a series of psychological thrillers with a distinctive aesthetic that intertwines violence and sexuality.
