Carrie

Rating: Null/10 (2 May 1999)

Entertaining at points and horrific at others. Spacek carries this adaptation of the Stephen King chiller with perfect precision. Laurie is wonderful as her devil yielding mother, while Travolta brings his Vinny Barbarino persona to the screen and ends up overacting miserably. DePalma direction isn't amazing, but the effects and elements of the mise-en- scene are at play throughout the film.
