10 Bizarre Horror Movie Choices (& Why They Happened)

10. Norma Wears A Baseball Cap In Every Scene - Carrie

There's so much going on in Brian De Palma's masterpiece Carrie that you might've missed one of its more peculiar quirks, that Carrie's (Sissy Spacek) classmate Norma (P.J. Soles) wears a distinctive red baseball cap in basically every single scene.

Hilariously, she's even seen "wearing" it while getting her hair done at a salon ahead of the iconic prom sequence, because why the hell not?

As for why Norma has such an attachment to the hat? According to actress P.J. Soles herself, she went to her audition for the film wearing the very same baseball cap, and director De Palma became strangely obsessed with it, insisting that Soles wear it to each subsequent audition.

Soles of course complied with De Palma's request, and by the time the audition process was over and Soles had won the part of Norma, the cap had evidently become part of how the filmmaker saw the character, and so it made it into the movie proper.
