Carrie White (Sissy Spacek), a lonely, withdrawn high-school student ridiculed for her drabness and her religious zealot mother (Piper Laurie)'s stifling influence, panics at her unexpected first period in the gym shower, enduring cruel taunts from classmates. As punishment looms, ringleader (Amy Irving) schemes with her boyfriend (William Katt) to feign courtship, crown Carrie Prom Queen, and humiliate her by dousing her in pig's blood at the event alongside cohorts (including John Travolta). Unbeknownst to them, Carrie's latent kinetic powers erupt in a merciless, unstoppable fury.
