Carrie is a 1976 American supernatural horror film directed by Brian De Palma from a screenplay by Lawrence D. Cohen, based on Stephen King’s 1974 novel of the same name. The film stars Sissy Spacek as Carrie White, a shy 17-year-old girl who studies at Ewen High School in Maine, where she is relentlessly bullied by her classmates and has no friends. Carrie’s classmates and her overbearing, religious mother (Piper Laurie) constantly bully her, and she is terrified of going to her senior prom. However, her best friend Sue Snell ( Amy Irving) convinces her to go to the prom with the popular athlete Tommy Ross (William Katt). <\/p>\n

At the prom, Carrie is humiliated when she is crowned Prom Queen as a joke, and she is trigger-happy with her newfound telekinetic powers. Carrie then causes a disastrous fire at the school, leading to the death of several students, including Tommy. Carrie returns home, where she kills her mother with her powers before she is killed herself by Sue’s father (played by John Travolta in his film debut). The film ends with Sue visiting Carrie’s grave, where she reflects on her friendship with Carrie.<\/p>\n
