OMG this movie was HUGE when it came out!! Sissy Spacek later won an Oscar for playing Loretta Lynn in the movie Coal Miners Daughter.
Another GREAT one to work in….Coal Miners Daughter as well as Dolly’s story, “Coat of Many Colors”. Both EPIC!! 😊❤❤
Her and her mum are funny at times in this film the best part in film was wen they show Saint Michael in closet
The best creepy part is wen Saint Michael in closet they show im wen she light candle es on a cross OK and the music is scary
A must reaction! You love Loretta Lynn, you'll love Sissy Spacek's portrayal of her. Tommy Lee Jones is in it too. :)
I’m not a country music fan but Coal Miner’s Daughter is my favorite movie. I‘ve seen it many times. Sissy Spacek did an amazing performance as Loretta Lynn.
The scariest thing about CARRIE is her mother !
Her mother totally crazy!!
@@BrianBogiaBricky the book explains why. Her Husband made her that way with his actions and cheating on her. He betrayed her to make kids with a power he had. Telekinesis
@@flatcapmanI never knew that. Thanks
And the whole prom scene esp when you were a kid or teen in the 70s and not used to horror like that
Laurie piper.
Steven King specifically said that the monster wasn’t Carrie-the monster was/is High School. Such a beautifully tragic commentary on bullying and it’s devastating affects (disguised as a horror film).
I always feel bad for Tommy. He was being kind and I think he actually liked her, as a friend or a bit more, by the time they went on stage. The bucket to the head killed him
Most of the prom goers weren't laughing. Carrie in her blind rage believed they were.
The important ones to her were.
@@kallen868 I felt bad that she thought Miss Collins was laughing at her. Of all the adults there Collins was the only one who was trying to help her.
Right, she was just so angry she didn't care or trust anyone
@@alucard624 In the book, Ms. Collins did laugh, just for a moment, out of shock.
I thought most of that laughing was in her head.
This was Stephen Kings first novel, and the story goes that King was flat broke, living in a trailer and working at a laundromat at night while his wife Tabitha’s was pregnant. King wrote this novel, thought it was no good and threw it in the trash. His wife fished it out without him knowing, read it and told him “you know this is really good. You should finish it. Which he did and his agent called him back with the good new that it had not only sold, but the paperback rights were $500,000 and a movie option. He was never broke again and the rest is history
All true! I was 14 when Carrie the novel was released, and still reading King till this day...
I didn't know about the laundromat part. In interviews, he pretty much tells the same story but says he was a teacher at the time. Regardless, it was his first novel and put him on the map to become the legend he is today.
@@kev7161 I think he was teaching days and working nights at the laundromat.
I enjoyed his earlier short stories under the pen name Richard Bachman
Steven King sold the book rights for $35,000 steven king made many bad deals in the early years but once he hit he hit
As someone who grew up in an abusive household, I can tell you it doesn’t matter what the children do. If other kids find out that your parents are abusive and horrible, you will get bullied. Carrie didn’t have to do a damn thing. it was her mother. And kids pick up on the rumors and the truth of what her mother did and they took it out on Carrie. It’s what kids do.
That is horrible. To think that anyone would pile on a kid who's abused. I know that it's not only kids. I wish you a happy life. ❤️✌️
In the original novel Carrie White isn't just telekinetic, she's a monstrous psychic powerhouse with _at least_ telekinesis and telepathy, and instead of just sealing up the gym and burning it down with everyone inside she _telekinetically destroys most of the town_ all while _broadcasting a telepathic message to everyone telling them what she is doing and why._
As amazing as this film is, I still wish they'd shown that. Carrie makes sure everybody pays the price. They showed it in the 2002 tv movie but the special effects were AWFUL so it didn't amount to much.
@@neonangel2687They wouldn’t have had the technical ability to portray this in a movie at the time. The remakes have been horrible and don’t stay faithful to the book or this movie. They change the ending etc. it just doesn’t work. If they would, it’s now oddly an allegory for school shootings. Done right, the message could be powerful.
The guy playing Tommy Ross was also the Greatest American Hero!
His mother is Barbara Hale, she play on the Perry Mason tv show from the 1950’s
Fun show! Loved it growing up!
@@Gary44113 The actor's name is William Katt.
Between 1985 and 1988, he played private investigator Paul Drake, Jr., the son of the original series’ private investigator Paul Drake, in the first nine Perry Mason television films, alongside his mother Barbara Hale, who reprised her role as Della Street from the original series.
He was also in a dark comedy called House where he moved into his dead Aunt 's haunted house
@@user-wl6yz6uc7g great film!
Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie (the mother) were both nominated for an Academy Award.
Sissy Spacek is the best Carrie in my humble opinion.
Piper Laurie should have won.
Piper Laurie just recently passed away too
Sissy should have gotten that award.
The only Carrie she was just perfect for the role. @@AA-jd2iz
Carrie is one of the most tragic figures in film history. It’s a movie that’s supposed to be scary but I actually get really choked up at the end. My heart breaks for her. Brilliantly acted movie.
100% in agreement. I was never fearful for anyone but her. I made a special point to make friends with every kid in my schools who got done wrong like her because of this movie and a few others like it. Randall P., if by some chance you ever see this, I'm sorry we lost touch but forty years later I still think about you and wonder how you're doing. I hope you're ok.
Betty Buckley was the beloved family mom of Eight Is Enough on tv . I grew up watching that series each week with my family . Ms Collins made us think of the teacher that everyone loves to have in high school .
This has always struck me as far less a horror story than a heartbreaking tragedy. Carrie was dealt such an unfair hand with a religious fanatic, lunatic mother who abused her and kept her isolated and lonely, and then, on her one happy night, a psychotic group of vicious students did something so cruel that she simply broke and lashed out like an injured animal. It's so sad that she was bullied past the breaking point. Sue is the only one who acknowledged her own bad behavior towards Carrie and tried to do a kind deed by giving up her own prom date so Carrie could go. Tommy was so sweet and sensitive to Carrie and realized he really liked her. He's the one who reacted with anger after the blood fell on her, but, sadly, the bucket killed him. 😥
Did the bucket kill Tommy? I always thought it just knocked him out and that he died with all the other students who perished in the fire, because he couldn't get out and was unconscious.
@@rhysiarein the novel, it explicitly says he was killed by the bucket. It’s a bit ambiguous in the movie, but that’s how I always view it, as he was dead before the fire and chaos erupted.
@@ninamravlja3632 It's been...jeez 26 years since I read the novel. I was a weird kid, I read it in 4th grade haha.
@@rhysiare lol, I’m not going to tell you how long it’s been since I read the book! You know, I actually think I saw the movie before I read the book, so didn’t know who Stephen King was at the time. By the time I discovered him (1976 or ‘77, my senior year of high school), he had already written’Salem’s Lot. I then DEVOURED everything I could find, and was surprised Carrie was also his novel. He was my favorite for years 😊
My thoughts exactly, you statedvit perfectly! Never saw it as a horror movie, it was just disturbing how Carrie was so abused at home and school.
They weren’t laughing at Carrie. Carrie imagined them laughing because her mother said they would laugh.
I disagree. It was like in the locker showers. It was like a mass hysteria. The girl in the cap got it started and it just spread . . . like fire. However, it's been a minute since I've read the novel and King could have written it just like you said.
@kev7161 girl, it's very clear in the movie Carrie sanapped. The kaleidoscope view is a clear representation that what she was seeing is not real.
@@kev7161watch the movie. Nobody is laughing except the perpetrators
Fact that one of her main supporters, the gym teacher, is laughing is proof that it's in her mind
I think they started laughing when the bucket hit Tommy Ross.
I have to admit that this movie makes me cry because I feel so bad for Carrie.
In the novel Carrie destroyed her home by pulling down meteorites from space. They filmed the meteorites for this movie (you can see a few small ones come through the ceiling at the end) but if I remember correctly it didn’t look right so was cut. Tommy was actually killed when the bucket hit his head while on the prom stage next to Carrie, his death wasn’t her doing.
yup. i dont know if she would have lived long tho as it said she had given herself pinprick hemmorages in her brain from overexertion. but i think she killed herself because she accepted her moms crazyness that she was from the devil and damned and deserved to die. so sad.
Sort of like Stephen Kings Rose Red then I suppose where the girl send boulders through her neighbours roof.
Fun fact - the girl playing Sue and the woman playing her mother are mother and daughter in real life. Amy Irving and Priscilla Pointer.
💖
@@kallen868 Amy Irving was married to Steven Spielberg in the 1980s.
@@jillk368 .. and Nancy Allen married Brian de Palmer after making this film, and went on to make Dressed To Kill and Blow Out with him.
@@jillk368 Amy was in Carrie 2 the rage as well in 1999
@@flatcapman Amy Irving was also in the scary movie Scanners (sorry, was thinking of someone else - she did a scary movie called The Fury). Loved Scanners as a kid (haven't seen it in years though; don't quite remember what all happens any more lol).
Sissy Spacek won the Oscar for her portrayal of Loretta Lynn in the biographical film Coal Miner's Daughter in 1980.
Perfection.
Amber and Jay should do a reaction video to Coal Miners daughter. Sissy Spacek was amazing in it
Yes, watch Coal Miners Daughter. Sissy Spacek portrays country music legend Loretta Lynn, and does the singing also!
She did a fantastic job too. My Nana was being mentored by Loretta Lynn while in the circuit and I watched the movie with her. My Nana said that it was a great portrayal of Loretta. She said Loretta Lynn was a very lovely person but also no nonsense put your nose to the grindstone and work hard. 😎👍
THAT movie is super-dull though.
Ms. White smiling while trying to kill Carrie is the scariest part for me. It creeps me out every time.
The chubby girl with the glasses. Was the principles secretary in Ferris Bueller's Day Off 1986. She also played basically the same character in another 80's movie too.
The girl wearing the big glasses is Edie McClurg, who played the principal's secretary in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and the car rental clerk in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. (gobble gobble!)
Under-rated actress!❤
Nosy neighbor lady Mrs Brindle on Small Wonder
@@JemJam2976And the Hogan family.
Was also in Cheech & Chong's Next Movie.
I honestly didn't know this until you said it. But, as soon as I read what you wrote, I was like "Oh my god, she sure does!"
The actress who plays Carrie, is Sissy Spacek. She won an academy award for playing Loretta Lynn in "The Coal Miners Daughter". Another great movie you should check out. 😉
Saw this in the theater and I can guarantee you everyone screamed when that hand came up !! 😂😂😮
Carrie was never evil or possessed. She just broke from what they did to her.
Every time I see William Katt I only think of Greatest American Hero. Love that show.
Great theme song, too!!
@@jillk368 I was hearing it in my head in every seen he appeared in in this reaction, lol.
I'm a musical theater nerd so I think of Pippin first and then Great American Hero lol
@@jillk368And then when they used it in Seinfeld as George’s answering machine message: “Believe it or not, George isn’t at home. Please leave a message at the tone.”
Wasn't he in the later Perry Mason shows?
The scariest moment in this entire film is that image of Margaret all but floating towards Carrie smiling with that knife in her hand. That creepy music playing makes it ten times worse. 😭😭😭
Christine, It (the 90’s version), Dolores Claiborne, The Stand (the 90’s version) are all great ones to check out
You guys are two of the few reactors that figured out Sue and Tommy were not involved. Congrats! Also, very few were laughing. When Chris and Billy make their getaway backstage there is dead silence.
Piper Laurie passed just a few months ago. Sissy Spacek is an all time great actress. Piper was too.
She played great obsessive Moms. See her as Judy Garlands mother in Rainbow.
@@kallen868 she was also great in the faculty!
"I'm just watching this girl washing herself...for how long?" Said while giving that embarrassed dad look. Jay is Classic!!
Needs to loosen up a little bit.😂
😂😂😂 imagine in the movie theater how the audience reacted to that. Omg
Close ur eyes!
@@Chris.Davis.2 he's watching it in front of his wife and reacting to it, for the viewers. His reaction is perfectly normal. It's not like watching it by yourself in private 😢
Dying to see him in a reaction to Dressed to Kill😂😂😂
Lol😂 yup...Jay & Amber are the mom & dad you wish you had. So sweet & sympathetic❤😊
Piper Laurie, her mom, was Paul Newman’s love interest in The Hustler. If you haven’t watched that yet, that’s one to watch.
Carrie’s mom in the crucifix pose haunted me as a teenager, that scene just wouldn’t leave my head.
Not meant to be a crucifix pose, but to match the statue of Saint Sebastian that it's the prayer closet, a martyr tied to a stake and shot by archers.
The tuxedos were all ruffled in the 70s! Have you ever seen a wedding photo from the early to mid 70s? LOL! Yep, that's how they were.
That was my dad.s tux when he and my mom married in 1973! Plus the major sideburns
Ruffles and pastel colors! Lookin sharp!😂
The fact that someone, somewhere, decided that this was the height of sophistication.
My 1975 prom tux was ruffled, and powder blue. With dark blue platform shoes. Made me 6 foot 4 with those shoes on! Rock on!
See the video for Kansas's great song Dust in the Wind to see what mid-70s fancy formal wear looked like. In the video, the point was all the finery does not make a difference, as we are all ultimately dust in the wind.
The teacher is Betty Buckley a broadway legend. Her rendition of memory is the best!
Who later go on to play Margaret White in the original broadway production of Carrie The Musical
She also played Abby, the stepmom on Eight is Enough
@@dahuffy❤
oooh..... oooooh..... oooooh...... Welcome Back Kotter with Travolta too!!!! Mrs Kottttair.
@JuandeFucaU she wasn't mrs kotter. That actress was the mom in honey i shrunk the kids movies.
The mother and her daughter Sue in the movie, Priscilla Pointer and Amy Irving, are actually also mother and daughter in real life. In fact, Amy Irving (Sue) was Steven Spielberg’s first wife.
My first name is Carrie (spelled the same way and I graduated from High School in 1987) and I had to grow up with this movie making me dislike my name. Most people thought it was an "old fashioned" name before, but after this movie it took me a long time to embrace my name again! I don't see a lot of people named Carrie anymore LOL! Regardless, I grew up as a big Stephen King fan (at least for his early years)!
My friend Mindy has a daughter named Carrie who's 32 years-old.😁
Stand By Me was also based on a Stephen King story.
That is a definite “coming of age” movie to watch. “Lard Ass Lard ass Lard ass”
And it's a beautiful movie
A short story.
As was The Green Mile and, I'm pretty sure, the Shawshank Redemption. All amazing novels/novellas and films ❤
@@mistojen The list goes on and on and on of S. King adaptations, some better than others: 'Salem's Lot, Christine, Cujo, The Stand, It . . . .
The Shawshank Redemption was in the same book as Stand By Me (titled "The Body", while the other was "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" - - 4 novellas in a book called Different Seasons).
Another Stephen King movie from this time period is “Christine.”About a possessed car. It’s really good, but a lesser known movie of a Stephen King book is “Thinner”. I love that movie
Both are great adaptations and worth watching.
I'm just waiting for someone to do an adaptation of The Long Walk it was the best book from when he used the Richard Bachman pen name at least that's my opinion
@@user-wl6yz6uc7g The Long Walk is in pre-production to be filmed finally.
Oh I'm a big fan of Thinner!!!😂
Thinner is fuckin' goofy. Christine is cool though.
I like the full circle of Carrie grabbing Sue's left arm for help in the opening to revenge from the grave at the end.
The 70's and 80's were like that. Best time of my life, we lived so free, but adults took no mess off of a child.
Ahh - Sissy Spacek is the best! You have to see her play Loretta Lynn in her biography, "Coal Miner's Daughter." She even does her own singing for Loretta's songs, and nails them!
Sissy SpaceX has done outstanding work even in small rolls for minor movies like “Tuck Everlasting”, because she is that professionally committed to her craft.
OoOoOoOohh, the original!! Sissy Spacek was spectacular👌
Great segue for them to watch A Coal Miners Daughter now
@@theresamariegoesplaces9688Yes! Great film. Surprised Broadway hasn't done it.
Other great Stephen King films are, "Maximum Overdrive", "Creepshow", Firestarter", "Christine", "Thinner", "The Night Flier", "Silver Bullet", and "Children of the Corn".
Really? You call Maximum Overdrive "great"?
You didn't even list 'Cujo'!!
@@firstenforemost - Well, I see your point with the rhetorical question, lol. But I guess for me it was more about really liking the idea of the movie (which you gotta admit was cool), and there were some pretty cool scenes, and funny scenes in the movie. It wasn't an Oscar winner for sure, but still lots of fun to watch. To each his own.
misery and delores clairborne which he wrote for kathy bates in mind
I Never Dreamed Someone Like You Could Love Someone Like Me. That song lives in my head rent free.
CARRIE IS AN ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE
👏💖🍿
100 percent agree.
Truly a masterpiece
Yes, it's my favorite period piece. 😏
I recently saw Blow Out and like it alot and really like Brian DePalma❤
They didn’t really all laugh at the end, some did but when you see the kaleidoscope lens that’s Carrie seeing things, something snapped inside her
Exactly
I agree. I don’t know why people have trouble understanding that.
Tommy was later in a great show, The Greatest American Hero. He plays a normal school teacher who gets super powers.
Fun 80s action/buddy cop type stuff thats missing on tv today.
I absolutely loved that show!
And by the way, the kids do NOT laugh at Carrie. The only one shown laughing is the mean-spirited girl played by P. J. Soles. Everyone else is either shocked, or like the little guy elbowed by Soles, angry. Carrie imagines their laughter.
A young John Travolta!!! The girl with frizzy hair who lets her boyfriend take Carrie to prom...was Steven Spielberg's first WIFE!!!😲😲😲👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤❤
Amy Irving. She also played opposite Streisand in "Yentil"
@@dahuffyThe Competition. Anastasia.Crossing Delancy lots of great flicks. She is so lovely in Yentl.❤
She was also the singing voice of Jessica Rabbit in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?". Kathleen Turner did the speaking part but Amy Irving sang "Why Don't You Do Right?" that Jessica Rabbit performed on stage.
The girl playing Travolta's girlfriend was also in The Philadelphia Experiment but better known as Robocop's partner Officer Lewis (Murphy, It's you).
@@Ilurk247 She was also Carol Ann's aunt in Poltergeist 3. 😎👍
I'm a big fan of Sissy Spacek. Coal Miner's Daughter, 3 Women, The River, etc. So many great dramatic roles.
I liked the River with Mel Gibson.
Stephen King's first book. I was and still am amazed at how he says he didn't know anything about women when he wrote it, because it nails so much to the table.
Fun fact: When Piper Laurie, who played Margaret White, got the script and read it for the first time, she thought it was a comedy. She couldn't believe Margaret was a serious character. Thus her operatic performance. It was her idea to play the woman's death as the ultimate orgasm. "It was what she's been looking forward to her whole life, after all."
His wife helped a great deal with that book. When he wrote Rose Madder, he captured perfectly the quiet terror of a vulnerable woman fleeing her abuser. Having been there, reading it took me back. He did a lot of research for that book as well.
@@UndeadRamen Rose Madder is one of my favorite novels. He's tried a number of times to work with mythological ideas, and he doesn't always hit the target, mostly because his novelist bent makes him fill in too many gaps. But with Rose Madder, he hit the target; his otherworld was beguilingly vague and creepy while being an excellent evocation of the Labyrinth. (Being a pagan, I'm always a little amused at how desperately he tries to avoid saying that Rose is a goddess. He seems to have a real allergy to the idea of a female deity; the very word "goddess" only ever comes up as an epithet or a harbinger of evil. I don't hold it against him, though.)
That slap that Miss Collins landed on Chris Hargensen's face... that was real. Poor Nancy Allen (Chris), but she took it like a champ.
I believe Misery is also a Steven King novel.
William Katt who plays Tommy was in another horror movie called HOUSE. It came out after the other haunted house movies, Poltergeist and, The Amityville Horror. It wasn’t as famous because it isn’t played as serious as those movies or Carrie.
Misery is indeed a novel by Stephen King. And the film adaptation is definitely worth watching. Kathy Bates did a marvelous job.
Misery was released as a Stephen King novel because his Richard Bachman pen name had been outed. Otherwise, Misery would have been a Bachman book.
I love the movie House with William Katt!
13:55: “Ya’ll got slapped in the 70s by ya’ll’s teacher??”
🤣That struck me funny. (Pun intended.)
I don’t know about slapped…but we got paddled in elementary school in the 80s.
We still had paddling in my junior high in the early 80s.
Also in the 50's
Yup, and if the teacher had to do it, the parents found out before you got home.
I had one teacher (in the early-mid 80s) who had holes drilled into his paddle to make the paddling more painful. Another teacher had a small cubicle in the classroom that was called "the hot box" because our school was un-air-conditioned (in Florida), and it was closed off to air from the fans. If you got into trouble in her class, you had to go sit in the hot box. Corporal punishment in schools was alive and well for most of my childhood.
Spacek starred in a film called, "Coal Miner's Daughter", where she portrayed the life of country music legend, Loretta Lynn. This film also stars actor Tommy Lee Jones, and Beverly D'Angelo (from the National Lampoon's Vacation movies).
Linda Blair who played Regan in The Exorcist auditioned to play the part of Carrie White.
This year is the 50 year anniversary of Carrie being published! This is the first book I read by Stephen King and I've read everything he's written since then. He truly is the GOAT of horror!
Btw both Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie were both nominated for Oscars for their brilliant performances.
You guys should watch The Faculty, with you two working in a school and then also it has Carries mum in it 🤣
Piper Laurie is in that, too.
I always considered this more thriller than “scary.” Such an amazing script, brilliant acting, directing, set work, effects… just everything! Great pick!
This was Stephen King's first best-selling novel. In his autobiography, King says that he got the idea after visiting a high school on a tour, where he noticed a difference in the girl's locker room compared with the guy's locker room - metal boxes affixed to the wall, meant for dispensing tampons. The image became fixed in King's mind, which gave rise to the opening scene of the book/movie.
The actor who plays Tommy was also in the TV show Greatest American Hero
Glad you are watching this one instead of remake
Yep. It's a classic, no reason to do a remake.
The remake really is quite cheesy and just all-around ruined the legacy. The people who haven’t seen the original are missing out.
@@CBGB_1977 Country, Bluegrass, Blues.😊
I like Chloë Grace Moretz but she didn't have the vulnerability that Sissy Spacek had it was hard imagining her being bullied in the same way.
This girl went through so much, jeez. But the first time I watched this I was always thinking that Carrie is so pretty and so sweet. She deserved her revenge. 💅
The first time my mom got her period she didn't know what it was, her mother never told her, she spent the whole day thinking she had hurt herself and was gonna die.
Sissy Spacek has leading role in Coal Miner's Daughter. She's also in what "might be" a lesser known film of hers called: 'Night, Mother.
Betty Buckley (the teacher) is also in the original musical "Cats", also worth watching.
Sunset Blvd. too! And CARRIE
And co-starred in Eight is Enough, basically a more modern version of the Brady Bunch (sort of) without the laugh track.
You guys did Misery, The Shinning, Stand By Me, Shawshank, and The Green Mile. I love Stephen King. My mom’s cousin is married to his son.
Tell your Mom's cousin that this North East Englishman who now lives in Australia recknogises the similarities between North East England and Maine.
@@davidhuggan6315 you know Kelly? lol I forgot Stephen king has 2 sons. You might be taking about Joe’s wife and not Owen’s.
Coal Miners Daughter is a must-see, Sissy Spacek portrays Loretta Lynn and she performs all the songs, A great movie!
Trivia: Did y'all know the actress who played 'Sue Snell', Amy Irving, used to be married to famous film director Steven Spielberg? It was very short lived; only approx. 3 years.
“Mmm, corn syrup: same stuff they used for pigs' blood in Carrie” - Billy Loomis
“Scream”
Yup. Dark Karo corn syrup mixed with red dye. If you ever wanna make fake blood for a Halloween costume, that's the magic recipe.
Yeah, kinda crazy because real blood actually looks more like tomato sauce but they thought it would look too fake so they went with the dark corn syrup with red food dye. 😂
John Travolta cracks me up in this, his line delivery is so funny 🤣
He had great "douche" appeal😂😂😂
@@brt5273 he’s too good at it 🤣
1976 movie yes. The year I graduated. I saw it at the drive in with my high school girlfriend. Young John Travolta I use to watch my favorite TV show Welcome Back Kotter. Sissy Spacek has always been a great actress.
THREE years ago, I got REAL LUCKY. I found a (10-pack) DVD of the GREATEST Stephen King movies EVER for $14.99! Carrie, The Night Flier, Christine, Silver Bullet, The Shining, Maximum Overdrive, The Langoliers, Children Of The Corn, Misery, and Cujo. All in ONE pack.
Scared me as a kid, still scares me as an old man
Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie were both nominated for Oscars for this movie.
The woman that played Sue (Amy Irving) mom was Amy's real life mom...at the end she slipped out "its alright Amy" instead of "its alright Sue"
Them (before the prom scene): "It hasn't been scary at all"
Me: "Oh just wait."
Hello from a Generation X'er in northeast Ohio. This has always been one of my favorite movies, and so many future stars are in it. Cheers.
Exactly! A movie from our time! Piper Laurie scared the hell out of me. 😮😅
@@dbwilljr68 Apparently, when she got her audition side for this role she thought it was a comedy, and auditioned as if it were. She just went totally over the top with it and they loved it.
Betty Buckley replaced John Travolta's girlfriend Diana Hyland -- who died of cancer -- on the popular TV show "Eight is Enough."
OMG I forgot about that. That was a cute show too. If I remember correctly, the dad is Dick Van Patten. I remember him as the king in "Spaceballs".
@@JustTanya. he was the king not priest but lol your right i always see him in his king outfit from spaceballs when i think of him. well that and him telling his worlds shields password is: 1 2 3 4 5! lol
@@joshfacio9379 OMG thanks for that heads up, I fixed it. LOL I remember that code scene and Dark Helmet/Rick Moranis is saying something like that was the stupidest code. I love Rick Moranis too. Such a great actor and person, to leave his career to stay home raising his kids after his wife passed away.
This book was his first big hit. When the novel this was first published, Stephen King was a substitute English teacher, And after the publication, his wife got an envelope in the mail and she immediately went to the school where Steven was teaching and wanted to talk to him. She was able to show him the envelope and it contained a check for $4000 from the the publisher. He was very excited about this, and was surprised That they got $4000 for the story. And his wife said no that is just the advance….
The woman who played 'Carrie's' mother, actress Piper Laurie, just passed away, October (2023).
Gen X here. Another Stephen King classic. This was one of the creepiest books/movies. He also wrote The Shining! And It.
Can't wait to see your reaction!
They watched that already I'm pretty sure.
@@sxm76 The Shining, but not It
If you were Gen X, you were too young to have seen this one during first run. I'm just few years too old for Gen X and I saw it because mom and my aunt brought me with them to the theater with them when I was in 6th grade, It scared the hell out of me because I was still teased a lot in elementary school, and I was scared to death about having to dress out and take showers in PE the next year when my grade moved up to the old junior high school building that was just for grades 7 and 8 like most junior highs were back then,
Stephen King also wrote the novella "The Body" on which the movie "Stand By Me" is based. I would love to see you react to King's miniseries "Rose Red." It also involves people with psychic abilities and a haunted house. King wrote the screenplay.
His best stories haven't been filmed. Let's keep it that way
I absolutely love this movie the remake never really worked for me
Sissy Soacek and Piper Laurie were both nominated for academy awards in 1976 for their roles.
Rage Carrie 2 is a must see, and highly underrated
See Sally Field's "SIBYL" is as disturbing!!😵😵
I love Sally Field, she was awesome in that movie
And that is based on a true story. The psychiatrist that treated the real patient was from my hometown.
Carrie's crazy mother was played by Piper Laurie, who played Fast Eddie's GF in The Hustler. If you haven't done that already, you definitely should. It's a true classic
Jackie Gleason aka Sheriff Buford T.Justice costars in The Hustler. In the discussion for Paul Newman’s greatest performance.
Great reaction video!!! Unhappily, Piper Laurie died a about 1/2 year ago. She received an academy award nomination for this role. I saw this when it was first released.
The character of Chris in the book was a bully to a lot of girls in school, she even put a fire cracker in one girl's sneaker,but Carrie was her favorite target.
I clicked so fast ! This has always been a favourite of mine. Love the gym teacher! She’s the best. And Carrie’s mum and then Carrie herself at the prom are so terrifying 🤣
My favorite line from Piper Laurie “Eve was weak..Eve was weak.. SAY IT WOMAN.. SAY IT!”
@@davidpalmer9134 I love that line too ! 🤣 and “we’ll pray woman” 🤣
7:20 "She's intense, though." Just a LITTLE bit of an understatement. 😅
Amy Irving, who played Sue in this movie, was the singing voice for Jessica Rabbit in, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."
Sissy Spacek is the perfect carrie white for me this movie introduced me to sissy spacek who is a wonderful actress then I saw her in the long walk home (1990) and the help (2011)
This was directed by Brian De Palma! Great director. Since Jay loves Mobster movies, may I suggest "The Untouchables" also directed by Brian De Palmer. Very good movie!
Yes!
Ooooh YES!! The Untouchables is fantastic! An epic gangster story starring Kevin Costner, Robert De Niro and the iconic Sean Connery!!! You will BOTH love it!
Mobster movie, add Scarface, another good DePalma flick.
PJ Soles (the actress in the red hat) burst an eardrum when she was hit with the fire hose during the prom scene. You can also see her in a musical classic, Rock 'n' Roll High School.
Piper Laurie, who played Carrie's mother, approached the film like a comedy. That's why her performance was so over-the-top. Ironically, the performance she didn't take seriously got her an Oscar nomination, to go with the nomination she received for her earlier work in The Hustler. Also well worth checking out.
Rock and Roll High School features The Ramones
Rock 'n' Roll High School is a musical comedy classic. P.J. Soles plays The Ramones biggest fan. She was also in the original Halloween.
I honestly couldn't get over the fact that here she is at prom, nice pretty dress, makeup, all done up, and yet she wears a red baseball cap
@@rhysiare If I remember correctly, she showed up at the audition wearing that cap. The director, Brian de Palma, liked the look and told her to wear the cap all through the filming.
@@rhysiare That was a kind of inside joke from the audition. That's what she wore when she went in.
The blond guy became a star when he played on a comedy 80s show Greatest American Hero, he also auditioned for the part of Luke Skywalker.
Piper Laurie as the mom was the best part of this movie. No other version will top this, the soundtrack, the acting, everything. You guys are so pure and innocent, it's fun watching you guys watch one of my favorite movies. Now go read the novel if you haven't already, and break your hearts 🥰
This was so huge, it was remade multiple times (never as good) and even became a musical on Broadway
Sissy Spacek is a gem. She's so good in Coal Miner's Daughter, which is the story of Loretta Lynn's life. And fun fact - the character Sue in Carrie was played by Amy Irving who was Steven Spielberg's first wife.
@Rob Squad, was a treat to see you all react to this gem of a film. Hits different today when bullying has gotten way way out of hand. Yup that ending made us all jump. Loved the discussion at the end, as I almost always do. Thank you both Amber and Jay
The film that started it all
