15 Recent Horrors You Should Avoid This Halloween
10. Carrie
'They're all going to laugh at you!' Certainly, that's the only reason to be watching this bland remake/re-adaptation of Brian De Palma's classic, based on the Stephen King novel of the same name. Almost scene-for-scene redo of a film that didn't need redoing, it's one of the more uninspired remakes of recent years.
Chloe Grace Moretz is miscast as a too-conventional-looking Carrie White, with only the likes of Julianne Moore (as her mad mum) and Judy Greer offering anything worthwhile. The updated CGI and extended action sequences make the finale stand out, but these days, even that you can get from an X-Men film. Stick with the original, obviously.
