Carrie


The rampage is not even the most interesting part of this, just a technical muscle flexing. Loved the practical effects! Feels like De Palma wanted to just do the rest of the story, but did the rampage for the ratings.

Goddamn teenagers and their emotional immaturity. The people that help Carrie get all beat up and emotionally scarred too. The cool teacher is almost too cool, but I did have a teacher like that: a younger person, interested in the student’s problems, liked wild parties and booze at prom.

The remake is not as good.

This is my place for ramblings about sequences of images that exploit the human visual limitation know as persistence of vision.
