This series Is out now on Amazon Prime Video
I am familiar with the story of Carrie. I haven’t seen the other versions of this but have heard some of them are good. When I heard a series was being made, I hoped to get a chance to check it out. I was able to get screeners for this series and here are my thoughts on them.
You can read the plot for this series here:
Misfit high‑schooler Carrie White (Summer H. Howell) has spent her life hidden away inside the walls of her home with her fiercely protective mother, Margaret (Samantha Sloyan). After her father’s sudden, untimely death thrusts her into the unforgiving ecosystem of public high school, Carrie is forced to navigate a viral bullying scandal that tears through her community, the relentless pressure and casual cruelty of the social‑media age, and the awakening of mysterious telekinetic powers that rise alongside her adolescence.
This was an interesting series. It starts off a bit slow but gets better as it moves along. There are moments that were tough to watch, but they made sense for the story this series was attempting to tell. Some of the characters on this show were easy to hate and others it was not hard to feel sympathy for them. As this series nears the end, we see something terrible happen which will change the lives of many people in this town forever.
Carrie is streaming now exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. You can follow Amazon Prime Video on Facebook and Instagram.
