Review of Carrie (2013) by Tristan L — 16 Dec 2014
A highly underrated remake because everyone compares it to the 76' original. This one is not only a little more faithful to the source material, but it improves on several things. Tommy feels more relatable this, And Carrie's mother is a deeper character than in the original. Not just a raving maniac.
Honestly, I think this one may be arguably better than the original. Chloe may be too attractive, but so was Spacek in my opinion, as the book had Carrie as a fat and unnattractive girl. I get her shyness here. And the characters of Sue and Chris are done much better this time. Overall, I think this is one remake worth checking out. It's up there with the remakes of Halloween and Fright Night.
