Movie Rating. 10
The first, and still the best adaptation of a King Novel to this date.
Perfect casting across the board and directed by a master (Brian De Palma)
The Prom scene and final closing graveyard moment are still some of the most frightening and effective scenes in movie History.

Deviations from book to film.
Carrie's appearance differs greatly.
The novel: she is overweight and acne ridden
The movie: slim and willowy
The novel: The prom scene is followed by Carrie walking through town, furiously destroying it
The terrifying tombstone ending does not appear.

King's First Novel which was originally intended as a short story, but expanded organically as King wrote.
His initial first draft, he hated and threw away.
Only at his wife Tabitha's insistence -who literally took it out of the trash bin-did he return to it and begin writing again.
