It's been 50 years since this horror classic was theatrically released in the US.
Based on the novel by prolific horror writer Stephen King, and directed by Brian De Palma, this is the story Carrie White, a troubled young girl, bullied by her peers and daughter to a fanatical fundamentalist mother, who discovers she has telekinetic powers.
In 1976 this film became the first of King's works to be adapted for the big screen and, to this day, remains one of the very best.
Restored in 4K from the original negative, the version provides the definitive release of a horror classic.
This film will be previewed by a featurette about the making of the movie including interviews with the creative team.
