Carrie vol. 2 (w/ Joe Lipsett and Trace Thurman)

It’s double the Carrie, double the body count this week as we unpack not one, but two remakes of the seminal Stephen King spectacular, CARRIE (2002 and 2013)!! And we’re bursting out of the scary prayer closet with two Retuning Champions you know and love - from Horror Queers, it’s Joe Lipsett and Trace Thurman here to help us two more modern Black proms and the problems that come with them!! Can any version of Carrie live up to DePalma’s? What if you add a lot of Dutch angled, vaseline-lensed SyFy Original visuals? What if you turn Carrie White into Darth Vader? How did Trace traumatize dance class bros? Do either of the remakes best the Carrie 2 sequel? It’s a battle of Christ Hartigans, lackluster Tommys, uneven Sues, and divergent Margrets!! All this, plus internet backlashes, plugs and tips, Carrie vs. Jigsaw, bad Billys, thick blood, wonky CGI, and a gym full of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! It’s twice the Horror Queers, twice the Carrie, and twice the Uncle Steve as we telekinetically launch Season Six of Kill By Kill right at ‘ya!!
