The outcast teenager Carrie White is bullied by her classmates at high school. Her mother, Margaret White, is a pious and paranoid woman that sees sin everywhere and the need of self-inflicting punishment. When Carrie has her first period, she does not understand what is happening to her and her classmates humiliate her in the changing room. The spiteful Chris Hargensen videotapes Carrie with her cellphone and posts it on the Internet. Their teacher Ms. Desjardin punishes the students, but when Chris challenges her, she is suspended and consequently is banned from the prom. Meanwhile, Carrie discovers that she has telekinesis and learns how to control her ability. Sue Snell, one of the girls that tormented Carrie, feels bad and asks her boyfriend Tommy Ross to invite Carrie to go with him to the prom to make up for what she did to Carrie. But Chris and her boyfriend Billy Nolan plot an evil prank with her friends to get back at Carrie. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Why a remake?
Why they had to make a remake of Brian De Palma's "Carrie" is a question I probably never get an answer for. I can understand that you want to make a remake if the first movie had a good plot but for some reason the movie sucked, but this was certainly not the case. So I don't really get the point of making this movie. The first one was for sure much better and more believable. Carrie with Sissy Spacek was perfect. They made her look like the unpopular outcast and that worked really good in the first movie. But here with Chloë Grace Moretz this doesn't work. She's better looking then the majority of the whole town. Julianne Moore as Margaret White, the mother of Carrie, on the other hand was believable in her role. I thought she did the best job in this remake. Well anyways, the movie was not bad but I preferred the original. And if you had to choose then just read the book from Stephen King, that's even better.
