Really, hating on this? This is way better than some of the other ones! There's some production value here.

It's still bad, but it has some redeeming qualities is what I'm saying.

let the hate flow through you, MS

What production value? Their idea of portraying fire was "throw a red gel up". No pyrotechnics. No creative use of lights. Not even cheap red ribbons blowing in a fan. Red gel + 2 extras slowly raised up on a wire and that's it.

The shoddy crown jewel goes to the bucket of blood drop though. It almost entirely misses her and only slightly splashes her arm. I can't tell if it was incompetence or intentional (the actress refusing, or not wanting to short out her mic), but the result is still taking the iconic Carrie prom image of her drenched in red and replacing it with her in a pristine white dress (at least from the distance of the audience) and one splotchy arm.

It's made even worse by having the red light on the extras but keeping the spotlight on her, making everyone BUT Carrie red. It looks like a pristine bride surrounded by demon zombies.

Don't know how to rate this. The terrible concept is 5 stars, but the execution is the banal lazy kind of incompetence rather than the fascinating train wreck kind.

They didn't even hit her with the blood. Most of it went directly onto the floor. She should have been dripping with that shit. Lame.

They did the exact same thing with the last Carrie remake. It looked like one squirt of chocolate syrup was lightly drizzled on her head, comically caked on her face.

and even if it was a decision to not get any on her, there are so many tricks they could have done that would have looked better than this shit. Cut the lights, throw over a red cover for her outfit. Spring for a 2nd red gel and put that on her spotlight. A projector for moving flame effects. ONE fucking pyroflash?

ANYTHING but "pristine white bride with splotchy arm walks around with background red gel". I've seen high school musicals with better production values.

You've strong feelings on this important issue, Nominal.

Its tragic that Joel Schumacher never got to direct the movie.

I read the book 20 years ago, and I loved it. The great thing about Stephen King's early novels is that, before he was the most commercially successful novelist ever (not hyperbole), his books were actually EDITED. Carrie is short and tight, without any of that bullshit where a character has a three page inner monolgue describing what's in his medicine cabinet.
