This week we take in the backdoor (failed) pilot, television film Carrie from 2002, starring the deeply creepy Angela Bettis and the barely there Patricia Clarkson. We wanted this to be Hannibal level good as it was penned by Bryan Fuller, but alas, it falls pretty flat. We debate whether this was the best edit, and we compare and contrast to the 1976 version. This isn’t the last time we will be seeing this tale on screen, but so far, it’s ranked last of the Carries. And we miss William Katt’s beautiful locks.

Recommendations: Don’t Look Now (Digitally rentable), Tiger King (Netflix), Unbelievable (Netflix)

Next up: Dreamcatcher (2003) (Rentable)
