EVENT DESCRIPTION

Feb. 10 Tue 07:00 PM First Blood: The Early Films of Brian de Palma: Carrie was De Palma's first big commercial hit, the first adaptation of a Stephen King novel & clearly a major influence on subsequent decades of teen-oriented horror & splatter. Sissy Spacek gives a tragically sensitive performance as the shy, confused high-schooler under siege by her classmates, her fundamentalist mother & the latent telekinetic powers that her late-blooming puberty unleashes. The cool kids play an unbelievably cruel prank on Carrie & get an overwhelmingly bloody & explosive response, executed by De Palma in red-drenched split-screen with an artistry that has yet to be matched, let alone surpassed.Details: 322-0145 austinfilm.org/carrie  $4
