Originally, I came to see the October Siege, but the movie broke down and was temporarily replaced to play Carrie the Witch.

After hearing that it was a horror movie, many viewers left the venue one after another, those who refunded their tickets, and those who went home. Of course, the landlord, stay and watch this film, otherwise there will be no review of this film.

Carrie is an ordinary middle school girl, but in the eyes of other classmates, she is not so ordinary - his behavior is weird, out of place, and simply out of place, he is regarded as an outlier by everyone, and he is often ridiculed and sarcastic. He bullied him and made him a laughing stock in school life and a marginal figure in the school. This negative experience further shaped the beauties, who lived in isolation and closed their hearts.

The family of origin is an important factor in the formation of a person's personality from a young age. Carrie's family of origin is also unexpectedly "not normal". Carrie's mother, who is almost a demon, believes in God and prays every day. Due to an inadvertent contraception when she was young (the contraceptive measures were not good at that time, there was no way), the alcoholic gave birth to Carrie indecently.

From then on, his mother was nervous, seemingly stimulated, and shaped the family in an almost perverted way of self-blame and strict "discipline" of Carrie. Carrie, however, did not disobey his mother everywhere, or wanted to escape from the family. She still regarded the family as his last safe haven, and still retained the last bit of love and trust in her heart. This also paved the way, and in the final incident, it all became the straw that broke the camel's back. .

It was in such an environment that another source of love appeared, that is, the head teacher. Carrie's head teacher saw that the classmates were bullying Jiali everywhere. On the one hand, they punished those mad and bad students, and on the other hand, they comforted and guided Carrie. (As a child who grew up under exam-oriented education, I am very moved to see such a class teacher.) It is a blessing, it is really good, but fate did not bend because of this, and it still sailed in its predetermined direction .

In a class teacher's harsh punishment for a bad classmate, he offended a bad boss, this bad boss, a girl, after being reprimanded by the teacher, she held a grudge, but decided to intensify the hatred on Carrie, which relieved her heart. Hate, hit the teacher in the face again. So, together with other bad classmates, they created a scam, tricked the beauty into attending the prom, and colluded with the handsome boys in the class to invite her, confided in him, and even expressed her goodwill to become his dance partner.

The purpose is only to push her heart off the cliff at the peak of her happiest, and fall to a pulp.

Carrie refused at first, and she didn't believe it herself. After years of neglect and exclusion, why did everyone's attitude towards her suddenly change 360 ​​degrees? Why is there such a chance to drop a pie in the sky after graduation, a good thing? When she was hesitating, the teacher encouraged her even though she knew it was a scam. Perhaps the purpose was to build her self-confidence - but the result was counterproductive, and the head teacher himself became an accomplice in the disaster. Trapped in a brutal massacre.

*Interlude the heroine's acting skills: When the heroine's eccentric second-handedness almost runs through the whole film, the climax of the whole film - the dance party, can also be said to be the climax of the heroine's hurricane acting skills. As the story progressed, Carrie felt a throbbing joy, a happiness she had never experienced before. Her eyes full of longing and moving, like stars in the dark night, swept away all the haze of the past. That face seems to be no longer hers, the dark sins of the past have disappeared

At the peak of this near-brightness, a pot of pig blood fell from the sky! ...to pour out Carrie, who has never been so beautiful in her life, who is wearing a gauze skirt and thanking the world with tears in her eyes!

Pandora's box opened, and Satan burst out.

The plot after that can be summed up in three words, all dead.

In the end, what was enough to put Carrie into the eighteenth hell was Carrie's mother-killing behavior. Although it was her mother who wanted to kill her first, even though she was helpless out of self-defense, some actions were done, and you can go to Tianchi. Not washable either.

This is the legendary sin.

Summary: Be kind to those around you who seem weak, stupid, and weird. There is some ice, not very solid yet, and enough to melt with love. Some ice, with demons living in it, hit hard -- and it will release Carrie!

    The details of the old version are much better than the new version. Compared with the new version, the handling of the silent segment of the climax and the sharp eye spikes just highlight Carrie's extreme despair and anger. People who are bullied tend to think that they are at fault and that they are "witches", so there is a reason for being judged (bullying), even though they don't want to be bullied. The devouring of the ending is also a strong metaphor. This is a complete tragedy. Looking very uncomfortable. I wish there would be no more bullying in the world.

    Stephen King's youth is simple and rude, but Palma's performance is good, and the dizzy scene at the ball is amazing; everyone is stabbing Carrie with the unique characteristics of women, the teacher's overprotection, Su's sympathy concealment, Chris's selfish charm, mother's mental cleanliness, control and anti-control, the power of blood tide, it is easier to choose to explode. I envy that era, large-scale B-level films can attract such big directors; the film is concise and gorgeous to the extreme
