Movie Night: Carrie (1976)

In this chilling adaptation of Stephen King’s horror novel, withdrawn and sensitive teen Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) faces taunting from classmates at school and abuse from her fanatically pious mother (Piper Laurie) at home. When strange occurrences start happening around Carrie, she begins to suspect that she has supernatural powers. Invited to the prom by the empathetic Tommy Ross (William Katt), Carrie tries to let her guard down, but things eventually take a dark and violent turn.

I absolutely LOVE this movie and I remember watching this when I was super little. It is such a. great and sad movie for me because no one should have to go through the bullying that Carrie does. Now, the friends that I am watching this with have never seen this movie and so obviously we had to put it on because its such a classic.

I did decorate the house like a school gym prom and the food was popcorn, pizza, and school punch with a ‘bucket’ of red jello. If you have seen the movie, you know. It was so much fun watching my friends reactions to the movie and I was happy that they loved it even though, one of my friends hates blood.

Happy Hauntings!
