Carrie

4

This '70s supernatural shocker, based on an early Stephen King novel, was Brian De Palma's first real big-screen success. It sees school scapegoat Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) hitting puberty and discovering she has the ability to move objects using telepathy. So when she's pushed too far by her bitchy school 'friends' and her Jesus-bothering Momma (Piper Laurie), the entire town has to suffer an incendiary bout of telekinetic terror...

DVD Extras:

Trailer, eight-page booklet featuring trivia and production notes.The widescreen picture and Dolby Digital sound mean De Palma's teen horror looks (and sounds) better than ever before. So far, so standard and there's not much else on offer except the menus and a booklet full of fascinating trivia - like the fact that that's really Spacek's arm in the final scene...
