On prom night, the world will know her name. Our friends at See It On 16mm are unspooling Brian De Palma’s 1976 masterpiece Carrie!
One of the most iconic and emotionally devastating horror films ever made—Carrie is a coming-of-age tragedy turned psychic revenge nightmare. Based on Stephen King’s debut novel, the film follows shy, repressed teen Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) as she navigates the cruelty of her peers, the torment of her religious zealot mother (a terrifying Piper Laurie), and the terrifying discovery of her own telekinetic powers.
With its split-screen fury, dreamlike slow-motion, and that unforgettable final shock, Carrie is both a high school horror story and a meditation on shame, isolation, and the explosive power of rage. Now…don’t be late. You have a date with Carrie!
