Synopsis

Carrie (1976) is Brian De Palma's landmark horror film you can watch online on iFILM. Shy high-schooler Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) is mocked by her classmates and crushed at home by a mother who treats every feeling as sin. The girls in the locker room have a cruel new prank ready.

What none of them know is that Carrie is changing. A telekinetic power stirs in her, faint at first, sharper with every humiliation. A guilt-ridden gym teacher takes her side, kind Tommy asks her to the prom, and Chris Hargensen (Nancy Allen) plots with a bucket of pig's blood. A young John Travolta plays Chris's boyfriend, and Piper Laurie is the mother whose sermons land harder than any nightmare.

Adapted from Stephen King's debut novel, the first of his books to reach the screen, the movie builds to a prom-night sequence De Palma stages in split-screen and bathing red. Both Spacek and Laurie earned Oscar nominations. Stream Carrie (1976) online on iFILM.
