ElixSkipper, they filmed the movie in my little town. My sister and her friends were asked to be extras in the Home Coming scene, which was filmed in our gym. I was about 10 when my sister dragged me to see the movie and I could never walk past the house they used for Carries home after that. I’m not sure but, I believe the house is still standing and still just as creepy as it was in the movie. I very rarely drive down that street to this day. 😳

ElixSkipper
King actually threw the manuscript in the trash. His wife fished it out and read it. She convinced King to publish the story. One of the characters, Carrie's mom, was inspired by King's real-life schoolmate's mom, who was described somewhat as an overtly religious person.

PrincipledKahuna2027, keep in mind in real, from what I understand he's a very easy going guy, he just has a terrifying imagination that he's able to put down in print.

Bill, read the book 35 years ago...and going through the Lincoln tunnel still frightens me and I always think of the book.

Great movie for a good bloody horror film day to watch! I like the first one better than the new version.

When you watch that movie, you realize it's hard to be a woman...

Cher67, I think he lives just south of Sarasota in the little town of Osprey on the very expensive Casey Key.

It’s a horror film. I’ve heard of Carrie but I’ve never seen it.

Stephen King is a truly talented man. My father who is dead now met him when he came in to our family's jewelry store and my dad was even mentioned in one of his books.

× Kay Gee ×, I can understand you're liking his work, but I don't understand why you don't also read other authors' work.

The first film to scare the beejeezus outta me as a kid, and was the only film to scare me for years... until Saw came along!

His books are to horrid for me. A few years ago I listened Pet Cemetery on BBC radio drama, boy I just couldn't continue after a few chapters. 😿
