About the film
In 1974, Stephen King published his first novel, the story of Carrie White: a troubled young girl, bullied by her peers and daughter to a fanatical fundamentalist mother, who discovers she has telekinetic powers. In 1976, it became the first of his works to be adapted for the big screen and remains one of the very best.
Carrie marked Brian De Palma's arrival as a major director and provided a key early role for Sissy Spacek, earning her an Academy Award nomination; Piper Laurie also received a nomination for her portrayal of Carrie's mother. Restored in 4K from the original negative, this Ultra HD Blu-ray edition provides the definitive release of a horror classic.
