"An all-stops-out scare-show!" -Los Angeles Times
Based on the best-selling Stephen King novel, Carrie "catches the mind, shakes it and refuses to let it go" (Time Magazine)! Starring Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie (in Oscar-nominated performances), John Travolta and Amy Irving, this ultimate revenge fantasy is "absolutely spellbinding" (Roger Ebert), "outrageously witty" (Los Angeles Times) and one of the all-time great horror classics!
At the center of the terror is Carrie (Spacek), a tortured high-school misfit with no confidence, no friends... and no idea about the extent of her secret powers of telekinesis. But when her psychotic mother and sadistic classmates finally go too far, the once-shy teen becomes an unrestrained, vengeance-seeking powerhouse who, with the help of her 'special gift,' causes all hell to break loose in a famed cinematic frenzy of blood, fire and brimstone!

eh! - 3.75 out of 5 (9/10/2001)
There are many of us who still remember CARRIE as one of the original horror
movies. It was one of the most successful films of 1976 and it went on to
earn Academy Award nods for both Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie. It also got
a spot on the cover of Time magazine and a focus of an article about the new
breed of horror. The irony being that it was actually the dawn of a new
breed of horror, and that was due to it being the first movie based on an
original work by a small town teacher

Sissy Spacek is the # 1 Carrie! - 5 out of 5 (11/3/2003)
Sissy Spacek rules as Carrie White. There was a 2002 re-make version with Angela Bettis in the title role, but she does not compare to Sissy's version.

This movie is great!!! But the DVD... - 4 out of 5 (4/4/2003)
just can't cut it! I think it can't cut the Special Edtion line. But the movie is all of this DVD because it's one of the best adaptations of Stephen King's novels(This was his first book)! Acting is well-planned, as well as a very well-planned horror film! BUY IT
