We’re wrapping up #Shocktober 2021 with a look at Brian De Palma (opens in a new tab)'s Carrie (1976). Based on the novel by Stephen King, the film stars Sissy Spacek as the titular Carrie White. She’s a young woman who’s lived under her mother’s thumb and religious fervor. When she experiences her first period, she also experiences a new ability to move objects with her mind.
