Carrie

CriticsCritics: 90
AudienceAudience: 7.5

A shy, isolated teenager endures relentless bullying at school and harsh abuse from her deeply religious mother. As she begins to discover an extraordinary ability to move objects with her mind, a cruel high-school prank pushes her toward a terrifying breaking point.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy emotionally intense horror, memorable performances, and stories about bullying and alienation; Not for you if you dislike dated effects, graphic cruelty, or slow-building tension.
