Critics Consensus

As disposable as its predecessor is indispensable, The Rage: Carrie 2 mimics the arc of Stephen King's classic story without adding anything of value.

I genuinely think The Rage: Carrie 2 deserves a lot more credit than it gets.

All of this happens like dreamwalking, as if the characters in this movie knew they were doomed to follow the scenario laid down in the first one.

Rated: 2/4

There’s no pig’s blood, but everything else is pretty much par for the course in this unnecessary sequel to Brian De Palma’s Carrie.

Rated: 1.5/4

If this didn't have the Carrie name attached to it, people would have been a lot kinder to it. It's actually pretty decent!

Rated: 3/5

Gone With The Twins

This loose sequel, arriving a staggering 23 years after the success of de Palma's thriller, essentially dispenses with the horror and entertainment value of its predecessor.

Rated: 2/10

A completely unnecessary sequel that, while having its own merits, feels totally misjudged, rushed and sadly redundant... this is as cheesy '90s horror as it gets.

While it is basically the same as the first one the rage carrie 2 is still entertaining and enjoyable.

It tosses in some fresh moments, but mostly it’s just a ’90s remix no one really wanted.

Underrated gem of a sequel that is hated on WAY too much. It had the courage to be it's own thing while only retaining the crucial plot beats of the story and it had the courage to tell a proper character story and made a tragedy out of it fully which the first one failed at. It has one of my favorite tragic romances of all time in it and the character of Rachel is one of my favorite female leads in all of horror. Emily Bergl's fantastic in this and so is Jason London, he acts his butt off here. Great social dark satire and human tragedy mixed with a horror flick, it shouldn't work!... but it does beautifully :).

Exact same plot as the original, just updated to late 90’s pop culture. The script and character development are also cringy AF. I gave 3 stars still, however, because the death scenes at the end were hilarious and full of drama, making this a half decent watch if you’re after some cult classic vibes with 90’s cheese 😂

I really loved this movie growing up. Watching it in 2024 of course it's cringe and melodramatic, but I still really love it. The cast is really good. I'd say by the end you are certainly rooting for the jocks & Melrose place oober bi**hes to get what's coming to them. If it didn't have the name carrie attached I think it would be better received.
