Great! Thanks for the video! Yeah, I wish horror movies were getting Oscar buzz again; that’d be nice. I heard that in the final scene, Sissy Spaseck walked backwards and then the shot was filmed in reverse. Also, I heard that Stephen King’s wife found an unfinished manuscript of “Carrie” in a trash can and urged Stephen King to finish it. I love King and Carrie, so this was really fun to see.
Yeah, Tabitha King supposedly made Stephen get that out the trash and finish the story. The rest is history. She also suggested that a vampire story would be scarier in a small town, rather than a big city like Stephen King originally thought up for Salem’s Lot. Good choices. Kudos

It’s like many other things on the Internet: in the end, it’s just wasted time, when we could actually do our part to make the world a better place to live in, by saving the environment, and to understand each other more. THAT’S my role on this site: to make everyone understand that THIS WEBSITE IS THE SPAWN OF SATAN, AND HAS NO BUSINESS BEING ONLINE. Why obsess over the negatives, when we can focus on the POSITIVES? Like charity, volunteering, and sacrifice? I do all three things EVERY DAY, and I have no problem with it, whatsoever.

James, since this movie deals with telekinesis and psychic powers, have you heard of Akira, from 1988? It’s an anime movie that’s also about psychic powers. It’s more of a thriller than horror, but it has a legacy, it’s a classic movie and is a landmark in Japanese animation. I thought that since it’s so important and well known, you would have gotten to it. Maybe not part as Monster Madness, but maybe another review (though it would be cool having it on Monster Madness).
It’s not really something I could see James talking about. It’s a weird fucking movie. Well-executed, sure, and with a plot that can actually be followed, which is more than I can say for any other Japanese psychological horror story.
But it’s ultimately just an extreme niche film, and not something that has had an appreciable effect on American horror, which is what James focuses on.
I mean, James is into Kaiju movies, especially Godzilla. I just wondered why he hasn’t gotten into anime yet. He doesn’t have to review it as part of Monster Madness. It could be another review at another time of the year.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also thought that the 2013 remake was quite good. It focuses less on the horror of her powers and more on the social commentary of the original novel of bullying, torment and anti-religious themes. It isn’t perfect but it still gets way too much hate that it doesn’t deserve.
Sissy Spacek is so incredibly effective in the finale. Her use of telekinetics by way of body gestures and eye directions is phenomenal! If you see how, in the remake, they make Carrie look like some student of Hogwarts. Its ridiculous and totally unscary. Her eye movements and flying make her look like Hermine!
61. Carrie (Original)
This was an great movie for it’s time. I know a lot of horror fans don’t care for this. I really love the scene she loss it. From what I heard it followed the book very well.
and what do you think of the remake? I mean, the most recent one.
I’ve seen it and cannot remember a detail from it other than feeling disappointed by the tameness of it. Also, there wasn’t that much emotion in my opinion.
Like you said, James, this is pretty good for one viewing. The ending scene is a bit disappointing to me, though. It’s a good one, but it kills the replay value for me. It was pretty cool that Travolta is in this, that was an added bonus for me.
I wish we could see The Mist as one final Stephen King adaptation movie for this year. That is one of my personal favorite books of all time, and the movie was done in good taste.
Good taste? Up until the ending, I suppose. It was just added shock value that didn’t seem plausible or necessary. I know King liked it better than his ending but that doesn’t mean I have to agree with him.
To me, Carrie is probably one of the best novels to movie for King. It really got me emotionally invested as a teenager when I watched it and I even cried because I felt so bad for Carrie in the end.
There were a lot of Stephen King movie adaptations. Compared to the books a lot of them where changed dramatically for time constraints even though some of them still got split into two parts on tv. I think the older Stephen King movies just like his older books hold up a lot better, although they did a good job with the mist.
I would like to point out the gym shorts those girls wear during that period… what terrible fashion designer thought they would even be good when designing them?
