Experience the horror of Brian De Palma’s 1976 supernatural horror Carrie in a new 4K restoration!
Based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King, the film follows the story of Carrie White (Sissy Spacek), a shy, introverted high school girl who is constantly bullied by her peers and oppressed by her fanatically religious mother, Margaret (Piper Laurie). Unbeknownst to others, Carrie possesses telekinetic powers, which she gradually discovers and learns to control. When the cruelty of her classmates escalates at the prom, culminating in a humiliating prank, Carrie finally lashes out in a catastrophic way.
A tense and tragic exploration of repression, bullying, and vengeance, Carrie features iconic performances and received critical acclaim for its blend of horror and psychological drama.
