Our Take On This Carrie News

2013’s Carrie Was Not Well-Received

This show has big shoes to fillas it enters production . Unlike the original film , which got a 94 % Tomatometer , the 2013 remaking ofCarriereceived pretty poor reviews . That version only got a 51 % Tomatometer and an even bad 44 % Popcornmeter among hearing . As such , spectator may still have sour oral fissure when it comes to other adaptations of the King book . However , Flanagan has essay himself to adjust coveted King ’s employment before ( e.g. Doctor Sleep ) , which will function him well go intoCarrie .
