action
Margaret White, a fanatically religious woman, gives birth to a baby girl at home. Disgusted by the sin she committed, she considers killing the child, but then decides not to.
Years later, Carrie is a 16 year old shy girl who goes through hell, oppressed and humiliated by her mother. They don't do well in high school either, where bullying and torture are commonplace for them. One day, while standing in the shower in the changing room, she notices that her hands are covered in blood. Unaware that this is her first menstrual bleeding, she turns to the others for help. However, they make fun of Carrie's plight and record a cell phone video of her throwing tampons at Carrie and mocking her. Little by little she discovered her telekinetic powers. With these new skills, she increasingly begins to defend herself against her fanatical mother.
Sue Snell wants to please her because of her guilty conscience and lets her attractive and very popular boyfriend Tommy Ross go to prom with Carrie instead of her. On prom day, Carrie's mom tries to stop her from going to prom by warning that Carrie will be exposed by everyone else. Meanwhile, Chris, the most popular girl in the school, and her boyfriend Billy allow themselves a tasteless prank on Carrie. They kill a pig and manipulate the ballot papers for the election of the prom king and queen so that Carrie and Tommy win. At the winners' ceremony, Chris, with the help of her friend Billy, tips a bucket of pig's blood that had previously been installed above the stage over Carrie and runs the mobile phone video on the big screen in which she was pelted with tampons by Chris and her friends. Most of the people in the hall laugh at her. But when the bucket comes loose from the scaffolding and Tommy kills, it comes to a catastrophe and the furious Carrie uses her extraordinary powers to cause a fatal bloodbath among her classmates, in which she cruelly kills Chris' friends. She later confronts Chris, knowing that she is behind it all. When Chris and Billy are prevented from escaping in the car by an earthquake they cause, they head towards Carrie. This, however, uses its telekinetic power to brake the car in which the two are sitting. Billy dies on impact. Carrie tries to strangle Chris with the belt, but fails. Out of sheer hatred of Carrie, she pushes the gas, but Carrie lifts the car with her strength and drives Chris straight into a gas pump, where her face is smashed through the windshield, killing her. Using her powers, she finally lets the gas station and car explode.
After the carnage, Carrie returns home in despair, where her mother tries to kill her. Carrie rams a knife in the back. In self-defense , Carrie kills her mother by nailing her to the wall with knives and scissors. But she regrets her deed and tries with her might to bring the house to collapse so that it buries her and her mother. Sue tries unsuccessfully to prevent this and somehow to make amends. Carrie is grateful for her behavior and reveals to Sue that she is pregnant and will have a girl before she gently telekinetically removes her from the house and it ultimately collapses.
After Sue's testimony in court, in which she blames everyone and herself for this disaster, Sue visits Carrie's already desecrated grave and deposits a white rose there. Shortly afterwards you can hear Carrie's scream and her tombstone starts to crumble.

background
In May 2011, MGM and Screen Gems announced they were working on a remake of the King novel. Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa was commissioned to write a script that should be closer to the original book than the 1976 film. Aguirre-Sacasa had previously implemented Kings The Stand as a comic series.
In March 2012, the role of Carrie Chloë Grace Moretz was offered, which she accepted after hearing that Kimberley Peirce would direct. Moretz described Carrie as her favorite role because she was the most emotionally challenging to play so far.
The shooting, with a budget of around 30 million US dollars, took place between June 28 and September 7, 2012, among others at Pinewood Toronto Studios in Ontario . The box office grosses $ 35 million in US cinemas. Carrie grossed 85 million dollars in theatrical release worldwide.
With DVD - and Blu-ray -Sales about seven million dollars were recorded in the first three weeks.
Reviews
The film received mixed to negative feedback. On the Rotten Tomatoes site , the film is rated 49% based on 166 evaluated reviews. In summary it says:
"It boasts a talented cast, but Kimberly Peirce's" reimagining "of Brian De Palma's horror classic finds little new in the Stephen King novel - and feels woefully unnecessary."
"The film has a talented cast, but Kimberly Peirce's" reinterpretation "of Brian de Palma's horror classic doesn't get much new out of Stephen King's novel - and feels terribly unnecessary."
Many reviews have compared the film to its disadvantage with Brian De Palma's version. For example, Spiegel Online writes :
“Kimberly Peirce's film is still creepy right here. But even with this she cannot answer what she actually had in mind with her work. A reinterpretation? That would have failed terribly. A game of quotes and references? It would have taken more to do this than precisely re-filming De Palma's shower scene down to the individual shots. Peirce's best-known film to date was the transgender drama Boys Don't Cry from 1999, and it would be interesting to see how she breathes new life into a story that also tells of female self-empowerment. But unfortunately nothing of that can be seen in her new film. "
However, in connection with the modern, darker style, it also received positive criticism, such as on Kino.de :
“ Boys Don't Cry director Kimberly Peirce modernized Brian De Palma's 1976 horror classic with contemporary CGI effects. She is respectful and faithful to the template by Stephen King, but can put her own stamp on the teen tragedy. Leading actress Chloe Grace Moretz distinguishes herself as an angel of revenge, and Julianne Moore shines in the role of the monster mom. Filmed in dirty and dark colors, this remake offers a new generation a distinctly feminine perspective. "
Awards
The film was nominated for two Fright Meter Awards (2013). He was also awarded a Saturn Award (2014) and nominated for one. He was also nominated for a People's Choice Award (2014) and a Jupiter Award (2014).
