King Starts His Filmatic Career Right

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2014)

Carrie was a trip. Even the way the movie started was bizarre but it set the tone for the rest of the movie. This was Stephen King's first novel made into a film and it was superb.
Imagine Revenge of the Nerds as a single female nerd with telekinetic powers and no annoying laugh and you'd have Carrie. The entire movie was a slow promenade building up to a grand finale. How few are the movies that successfully end with a bang. Carrie ended with a big bang.
This movie was so good it would go on to be referenced for the next 30+ years. There was even a remake of it done in 2002 and again in 2013. This movie was an undeniable classic.
