SHOWTIMES AT IFC CENTER

4K Restoration!

In this chilling adaptation of Stephen King’s horror novel, withdrawn and sensitive teen Carrie White faces taunting from classmates at school and abuse from her fanatically pious mother at home. When strange occurrences start happening around Carrie, she begins to suspect that she has supernatural powers. Invited to the prom by the empathetic Tommy Ross, Carrie tries to let her guard down, but things eventually take a dark and violent turn.

Sissy Spacek was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Lead Actress for her intensely emotional performance, and Piper Laurie earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her haunting portrayal of Carrie White’s religiously fervent abusive mother.

 Additional showtimes for 11/29-12/4 announced on 11/25.

Previously screened as part of our Spring 2019 season of “Waverly Midnights: Parental Guidance.”
