Didn’t make it to the New York Comic Con to see any of the Carrie related goodness? Don’t worry; Nomad was on the scene, and we have a full report and much more for you right here to dig on!

Footage Description
Sweeping over the town in a moody blue tint… the pace is fast as if approaching for a landing. A large building is totally ingulfed in flames on the right. As the camera passes we see more fires, and then it seems like everything standing is in flames as well as cars and even the ground in places. The camera dives to ground level, and up ahead we see a familiar black silhouette. The camera rushes toward the slender female form in a dress, and the shadow lifts her head to reveal Chloe as Carrie covered in blood. Very impactful. Crowd loved it.

For an extra bonus call 207-404-2604, and you’ll get messages from the characters with different ones swapped out from time to time. CALL IT AND QUAKE IN FEAR!! Chloe says so!

Check out the panel, a sampling of the phone hijinx and a preview of a set visit from Entertainment Tonight Canada below!

Synopsis:
A reimagining of the classic horror tale about Carrie White (Chloë Grace Moretz), a shy girl outcast by her peers and sheltered by her deeply religious mother (Julianne Moore), who unleashes telekinetic terror on her small town after being pushed too far at her senior prom.

The quiet suburb of Chamberlain, Maine, is home to the deeply religious and conservative Margaret White (Moore) and her daughter, Carrie (Moretz). Carrie is a sweet but meek outcast whom Margaret has sheltered from society. Gym teacher Miss Desjardin (Judy Greer) tries in vain to protect Carrie from local mean girls led by the popular and haughty Chris Hargenson (Portia Doubleday, Youth in Revolt), but only Chris’ best friend, Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde, The Three Musketeers), regrets their actions. In an effort to make amends, Sue asks her boyfriend, high school heartthrob Tommy Ross (newcomer Ansel Elgort), to take Carrie to prom. Pushed to the limit by her peers at the dance, Carrie unleashes telekinetic havoc. Brian De Palma’s 1976 film version of CARRIE earned Oscar nominations for stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.

MGM and Screen Gems’ CARRIE is directed by Kim Peirce and produced by Kevin Misher (Public Enemies). J. Miles Dale (The Vow) serves as executive producer, and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Big Love) wrote the script from King’s original story. CARRIE’s creative team includes Director of Photography Steve Yedlin (Looper), Production Designer Carol Spier (Eastern Promises), Costume Designer Luis Sequeira (The Thing), and Editor Lee Percy (Boys Don’t Cry).
