Carrie is about a girl who knows absolutely nothing about the process of womanhood. She stays to herself in school because she has no friends. Well, it's worse than no friends. She is teased by practically everyone. It gets worse once she starts her period in the midst of the school day. See, no one taught her that it was coming or how to handle it. Even more than being an outcast, Carrie has telekinetic powers that she also doesn't know how to control. She is in essence one of Stephen King's greatest creations. The problem is she has been created too many times.

You know that saying "If it's not broken, don't fix it." Well, the original movie that came out in 1976 is a classic. Each and every part of it was amazing. Nothing was wrong. However, in the 21st century nothing is off limits. For some reason we believe in touching every original and
It was the remake directed by David Carson. He couldn't touch the classic, but he didn't mess it up either. The difference was effects. 1976 Carrie, directed by Brian De Palma, was silently creepy. She was an outcast who discovered her body and popularity at the same time. The moment the popularity ended she turned into a killer teen who would never live down her past. 2002 Carrie had special effects, louder noises, but still stuck with the original idea of what Carrie was supposed to be. I was slightly mad then when they even played with her character, but now I'm real nervous. What will 2013 Carrie be like?

The movie that will be in theaters in less than a week is directed by Kimberley Peirce. My heart in split in two. One on hand I love when Stephen King novels get made into movies, especially good ones. However, this is a damn remake of a remake. Will it really be good? You already know I'm going to see it.
