Carrie
I recently had the pleasure of watching the new version of Stephen King’s Carrie. I have to say that although I’ve seen both versions, I much prefer this one.
This one followed the book better, with the exception of the ending. But in this one, we get to see Carrie blowing up the town, we get to see the way she killed her mother in the book. It goes much smoother than the original movie does.
Truthfully, I like the ending to this movie better than the original or the book. I’m not fond of the fact that Carrie dies. It’s like she’s had to put up with all this crap, and then she gets the short end of the stick again, because she dies. So to see the ending changed was a pleasant surprise.
I’d give this 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.

Carrie was one of the best book to movie transitions I’ve seen.
