Carrie

2 ep in. Still great. This guy remembers what so many modern TV writers have forgotten: how to make likeable characters.

4 episodes done. This show makes me want to toss all teenagers cellphones into orbit. Still enjoying it, the "others" stuff still isn't back other then the main one so thats good. Mom getting her revenge made my wife and I laugh, she knows the game and the actress is so good at it lol.

I never watched the entire original movie and didn't even know about the morenetz remake till just now. I plan to give this a watch.

The 70's movie is one of the best horror movies ever made, def go give it a watch

So I liked this with an asterisk that the movie is better because there was no sequel bait built in like this show. I dunno how I feel about it but overall it was the most book accurate Carrie adaptation with more built in but Brian De Palma did it better even though he strayed

Binged 5 episodes yesterday, we would have finished the series if my wife wasn't going to the movies with her friends. So far it's excellent. Hopefully the ending sticks the landing, but thus far, it's a very strong recommendation.

I am really confused. This is good? Its on Amazon. How is this possible?

Mike Flanagan is the best horror writer/director working is how.

Thinking on this more, I am fine with the ending, I assume it was Amazons request to have the possibility of more seasons, but it certainly can stop where it did and tells a complete adaptation of the book. Was nice to get a book accurate ending of the town.

Carrie and Margret actresses were perfectly casted and written, and I appreciated the change to the mother, felt more in line with what King probably would have done if it wasn't his first book as that was a very simple story. Really everyone was well written, and the kids felt like kids for good and bad.

Even if they don't do more based on the last episode he is defiantly gearing up for Dark Tower and bringing all of Kings works together. Amazon just needs to let him do it
