The film was a financial success, grossing $85 million at the box-office, however received mixed reviews from film critics and audiences.

She at first intends to kill the infant, but changes her mind. As a teenager, her daughter Carrie (Chloë Grace Moretz), is a shy and isolated student at Ewen High School in Maine. While showering after gym class at school, Carrie abnormally experiences her first menstrual period. She naively thinks she is bleeding to death. A sadistic group of teenage girls humiliate her by throwing tampons and pads on her and the leader of the group, Chris Hargensen (Portia Doubleday) records the events on her smartphone and uploads the video onto YouTube. The gym teacher Miss Desjardin (Judy Greer) comforts Carrie and sends her home with Margaret, who believes menstruation is a sin. Margaret demands Carrie to abstain from showering with the other girls. When Carrie refuses, Margaret hits her with a Bible and locks her in her "prayer closet". As Carrie screams to be let out, a crack appears on the door and the crucifix in the closet begins to bleed. The next day, Miss Desjardin informs the girls who teased Carrie that they will endure boot-camp style detention for their behavior. When Chris refuses, she is suspended from school and banned from the prom. She storms out, vowing revenge. Meanwhile, Carrie learns that she has telekinesis. She researches her abilities and learns to harness them. Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde) attempts to make amends to Carrie by asking her boyfriend, Tommy Ross (Ansel Elgort), to take Carrie to the prom. Carrie hesitantly accepts Tommy's invitation. When she tells her mother, Margaret forbids Carrie to attend. Asking her mother to relent, Carrie manifests her telekinesis. Margaret believes this power comes from the devil. That night, Chris, her boyfriend Billy Nolan (Alex Russell), and his friends plan revenge on Carrie by setting up a humiliating prank. They go to a local farm and kill a pig so that they could collect its blood into a bucket. They sneak into the school gym and attach the bucket with a rope and place it on the rafters. Margaret tries to prevent Carrie from going to the prom, but Carrie uses her powers to lock her mother in the closet. At the prom, Carrie is nervous and shy, but Tommy kindly puts her at ease. As part of Chris and Billy's plan, Chris's friend, Tina Blake (Zoë Belkin), slips fake ballots into the voting box, which name Carrie and Tommy prom queen and king. At home, Sue receives a text from Chris taunting her about her revenge on Carrie. Sue drives to the prom, arriving just as Carrie and Tommy are about to be crowned. Sue sees a bucket of pig's blood dangling above Carrie but, before she can warn anyone, Miss Desjardin hustles her out, suspecting that Sue is planning to humiliate Carrie. Eventually, Chris pulls the rope, causing the bucket to tip over and spill the pig's blood onto Carrie, leaving the entire crowd in shock and Tommy angry. Soon after that, Tina plays the humiliating YouTube video of the gym shower incident on the projection screen, causing her friends and eventually most of the crowd to laugh. Suddenly, the emptied bucket falls off the rafters and strikes Tommy's head, killing him instantly, to shock of Carrie and everyone else, as the shocked Chris and Billy hustle themselves out. Carrie sobs over his dead body and then proceeds to use her telekinesis to angrily cause mass destruction in the gym and kills those who tormented her, including Chris' friends, and spares the rest, including Miss Desjardin, to escape to safety. When Carrie leaves the destruction, Chris and Billy attempt to kill Carrie by slamming the car into her, only for Carrie to kill them instead. The troubled Carrie arrives home and she and Margaret embrace. Margaret tells Carrie about the night of Carrie's conception: Carrie's father "took" Margaret, who enjoyed the experience. Whilst praying, Margaret grabs a knife and suddenly stabs Carrie in the back, causing her to roll downstairs. Margaret continues to attack her to kill the demon "inside of her" but Carrie telekinetic-ally collects all the kitchen knives and shoves all the knives at once onto Margaret's body, killing her. Overcome with guilt and remorse, Carrie becomes hysterical and summons stones to fall from the sky and crash into her house. When Sue arrives, a furious Carrie attacks her with her powers, but notices that Sue is pregnant, and tells her that her baby is a girl. Carrie pushes a stunned Sue out of the house to safety as the house collapses from the raining stones, killing Carrie in the process. As a voice-over of Sue gives her testimony in court regarding the prom incident, she visits Carrie's grave and places a single white rose by the headstone which is vandalized with the words "CARRIE WHITE BURNS IN HELL". As she leaves, the gravestone's surface begins to break. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carrie (2013 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
