Carrie (1976)
8/10
A fantastic King adaptation
18 July 2004
I have always been a sucker for adaptations of Stephen King's work. People have always complained about crappy adaptations of one of horror's most popular authors, but I have found so many guilty pleasures in movies such as Pet Semetary (1989) The Shining (1980) and even It (1990).

This is one movie, that even King haters, do not deny the brilliance of. This film cemeted the careers of director Brian De Palma, actress Sissy Spacek (who gives a chilling performance as Carrie) and the previously mentioned Stephen King, at least when it comes to film, and does not disappoint.

Everything about this film is worth it. The plot is good, the visuals are good, the atmosphere is good, the acting is good. This film is highly recommended.
