FEMALE MONSTERS 05 • Carrie (1976)

A deep dive into the iconic adaptation of Carrie, a bullied teenage girl who discovers she has telekinetic powers.
We're joined by film critic Kelli Weston for a deep, deep dive on the inimitable classic of horror cinema, Brian de Palma's Carrie (1976). We talk about the monstrous feminine, otherness, Sissy Spacek, period horror, who's the real villain in the film and so much more.
