Carrie (1976): The Teenage Hellscape That is High School

This week we are kicking off Stephen King month with his very first novel and his very first film adaptation! 1976's Carrie directed by Brian DePalma and starring Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie. And back with us again is our good friend and collaborator, Anastasia Elfman! For those of us who were bullied in high school, Carrie hits home illustrating how cruel and how much of a nightmare high school can be for those of us who are different and can feel like a bit of a revenge fantasy for the "weird kid". But what is it about this tale of teenaged angst that has led us to not only still talk about it after nearly 50 years but that has led to 2 remakes and a sequel. We'll find out today!
