Really isn’t as bad as history remembers it
In the made-for-TV movie “Carrie,” our young naive outcast (Angela Bettis) is tormented by her fellow high-school students. She learns of her telekinesis and begins using it as a tool for vengeance.

The 2002 version of Stephen King’s “Carrie” is a lot better than it could’ve been. It was already fighting an uphill battle trying to recapture the same tense and gloriously haunting magic the 1976 movie did. Weak performances and cheesy dialogue by many of the actors doesn’t help the situation. However, Angela Bettis’s incredible performance as the title character virtually redeems any weakness shown by the other cast members. The one thing that hinders this update is the TV-quality production and cinematography. That being said, the special effects are a lot better than they should’ve been for a TV-movie made in the early 2000s.

Although 2002’s “Carrie” is rated TV-14 and includes some questionable content for younger viewers. There’s brief nudity, although nothing graphic is shown. The scenes are from the back or a profile of Carrie lying in the fetal position in the shower. There are adult situations, violence and gore, mild profanity, alcohol and smoking, and frightening and intense scenes.

If you give the update a chance, you’ll find that it really isn’t as bad as history remembers it.Read More
