The 2013 film remake about a shy girl who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town is Carrie. Directed by Kimberly Peirce, the film stars Chloë Grace Moretz as Carrie White and Julianne Moore as her deeply religious mother, Margaret.
Carrie is based on Stephen King's 1974 novel and is a remake of Brian De Palma's 1976 film. The story follows an isolated teenager who discovers she can move objects with her mind. After years of bullying and abuse, a cruel prank at her high-school prom pushes her powers and emotions beyond control.
The 2013 version updates the story for the digital age. Its bullying plot includes a cellphone recording of Carrie being humiliated and uploaded online, reflecting the growing cultural concern about cyberbullying when the film was made. The adaptation also spends more time on the difficult relationship between Carrie and her mother.
The movie premiered in October 2013 and received mixed reviews. It is sometimes confused with the original 1976 Carrie or the 2002 television adaptation, but the question specifically points to the 2013 remake.
