Carrie Bloody Prom Dress Costume with Gown and Corsage (Medium)

Product Information

Carrie was raised isolated from society by her single mother after her father Ralph White left them for another woman. Miss Desjardin: I want you all to know what you did on Friday was a really nasty thing. Did you stop to think that Carrie White might have feelings? Do any of you ever stop to think?! Sue? Helen? Tina? Oh, you think she's ugly, don't you? Well, you're ugly. I saw just how ugly all of you are Friday morning! Once she arrives at the prom, the film lingers for a while on the atmosphere and the building tension, but it also takes the time to show you how Carrie’s gown differs from everyone else’s. It’s not just a simpler look, but a slightly more revealing one than you see on any of the other girls. And Starring: " David Keith as Detective John Mulachy". This is notable since both the 1976 and 2013 films gave this citation to the actresses playing Margaret White ( Patricia Clarkson is credited second here instead). Fan Disservice: Carrie in that scene however is fully nude and in the fetal position from having a freakout about her first period. The blood can be seen pouring through the water too.

Orphaned Series: Sort of. The film is a full adaptation of the book that had mild plans to continue as a TV series where Carrie survives and runs off. The ending is open enough to allow for a continuation, but still somewhat resolved. Cliffhanger Copout: Miss Desjardin is shown hanging from the vent for dear life, the chair underneath her having fallen over. Later she is being interviewed by the detective, with no explanation of how she escaped. Carrie seemingly keeps her powers a secret from her mother until she talks about the Prom. In the novel, however, Margaret is aware of them ever since she saw her baby bottle floating over her. This is the only adaptation of the novel to add a direct confrontation scene between Chris and Carrie before the prom.Easily Forgiven: Sue forgives Carrie for the prom that killed a lot of people at the school and says it wasn't her fault. Justified, since for most of that sequence Carrie seems to be walking around in a dream state, and before her powers are activated she seems to have a seizure from the stress of being coated in pig's blood. Plus, when Sue revives Carrie, she ends up getting all of Carrie's memories. So she truly knows that Carrie wasn't malicious.

Sissy Spacek rubbed Vaseline on her hair and wore a sailor outfit from her childhood while auditioning for the role of Carrie. Comfort Food: The investigators offer donuts to the people they're interrogating. Sue doesn't touch them, Norma dives in casually, and Miss Desjardin tears apart a donut with her fingers with a stressed expression.If You Ever Do Anything to Hurt Her...: Miss Desjardin finds Tommy at the prom and warns him that if Carrie doesn't have the night of her life, she'll see to it that he's expelled. It's no wonder that after the prank happens, he tosses down his prom crown in anger. True Blue Femininity: Helen, one of the 'Ultras' and a beautiful blonde Girly Girl, wears a blue prom dress. In the 2013 remake, Carrie White mentioned that she inherited her telekinetic power from either her father Ralph, or from her great-grandmother Sadie Cochran, who was the mother of Judith Cochran, the mother-in-law of John Brigham, the grandmother of Margaret Brigham. Sadie, like her great-granddaughter, was telekinetic. She died of heart failure at the age of 66, possibly from straining herself with her own power. Not Quite Dead: Carrie, where she is somehow resuscitated by Sue after spending hours submerged in a bathtub.

Chris gets a Beta Bitch who's in on all her schemes, when she and Billy act alone in the book. Although in this case, it's more accurate to the book, making it Tina (who was friends with Chris but not a Beta Bitch) rather than Norma.Levitation: Carrie was able to levitate and even glide out of the school. She telekinetically lifted off the ground. Carrie witnessed as Margaret agonized to her death, and screamed in terror over her loss. Carrie's powers then manifested on the loose, bringing the house down over her. Carrie rushes to her closet, carrying her mother and stayed there as the house came down, dying. Tina Blake. While she is one of Chris's friends in the book, she isn't as big a bully and she isn't in on the prank, which she is in the film. Additionally, she becomes a bit of a ditz, while she didn't have much of a personality in the book. The lobby was empty. She paused halfway up the stairs and "FLEX", the doors all slammed shut under the concentrated force she directed at them. Inside, they all rushed to the exits and Carrie stood there watching, they were trying to get out. "Oh no, no, no… naughty, naughty" She could hear them screaming and it was music to her ears, sweet soul music and she smiled." ―Carrie Death by Adaptation: Kenny and Tina survived in the book but both die in the disaster. Helen's fate is not said in the book but she's shown dying too. Subverted with Miss Desjardin - she's implied to die but is one of the survivors being interviewed.

To She's All That where Tommy remarks that because Freddie Prinze, Jr. turned "a supermodel, but we're not supposed to notice because she's wearing glasses" into a Prom Queen is notably similar to Sue's request that Tommy take Carrie to prom. Bonus points for Carrie outright mentioning Pygmalion and My Fair Lady, of which She's All That is a modernisation. Lost in Imitation: Despite being a Truer to the Text version of the book, this film still has several things taken from the original film: Letting Her Hair Down: Miss Desjardin's hair is first seen down when she attends the prom. And that's also when she has a heart-to-heart with Carrie.This time it's Tina who gets this to become Chris's Beta Bitch. However Tina was Chris's best friend in the book so her bitchiness was implied through the association. The only reason she's this trope is because Tina in the book didn't take an active part in the prank like she did here. Bittersweet Ending: Comes closer to this than any of the other versions, as Carrie survives and is taken to Florida in secret by Sue. I love your dress. Where you bought it?" asked Frieda. "I made it" said Carrie in a shy voice. "Oh, made it?" Frieda's eyes widened in surprise. "No s**t!" Carrie felt herself blushing furiously. "Yes, I did. I like to sew. I got the material at John's in Andover. The pattern is really quite easy, I can make you a dress if you like" "Really? That'd be far out!" Frieda replied." ―Carrie In the 2013 film adaptation, when Carrie tells Sue that her baby is a girl (conceived by both Sue and Tommy Ross) and saves her life from the destruction of her house, it is possible that Carrie now treats Sue as a friend.
