- GoofsWhen Sue Snell has flashback scenes about Carrie, she remembers things that happened after her character was removed from the gym/prom. She couldn't possibly have seen what went on as the doors shut behind her and she was locked out.

Featured review
This is a forgettable but offbeat teenage film. The visual effect is certainly better than the first Carrie (1976). The flashback of Carrie 1 and the return of Amy Irving starring as Sue Snell again also help.
Apart from the film itself per se, having seen Carrie and Carrie 2, I can't stop thinking why the problem of kids bullying with each other continues to be a problem in schools. In fact, this problem is not only between school kids, but also between grown ups in society. What's wrong with our society? What happened in the film is no more worse than the real event 'Columbine High School Massacre' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine_High_School_massacre). When are we going to solve this problem?
Perhaps showing this film to kids will make them understand how bad if they treat their mates badly.
