What to Know

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.

Alexandra Heller-Nicholas Fangoria I genuinely think The Rage: Carrie 2 deserves a lot more credit than it gets. Mar 26, 2022 Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Rated: 1/5 Dec 3, 2003 Full Review Globe and Mail Rated: 1.5/4 Apr 25, 2003 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 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 Feb 17, 2023 Full Review Trace Thurman Horror Queers Podcast 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 Dec 29, 2020 Full Review Mike Massie 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.

Borderless C 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 😂 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/04/24 Full Review Trina K 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. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Stanny R Completely unnecessary sequel to a classic… a sequel that actually turned out to be pretty good. The returning cast and continuity is a welcomed addition. Rachael is a pretty good horror “villain” and the rest of the supporting cast deliver a decent portrayal of nice/douchey people. So,e great action sequences on show especially in the awesome final act. Definitely worth a watch! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/07/24 Full Review John C The first film was a classic. How it remained `stand-alone' for so long is a mystery to me. I can't believe so bright Hollywood money-man didn't think of doing a sequel waaay sooner than twenty-three years later. And, as we all know, how many times are sequels even nearly as good as the original? Not many. But Carrie 2 doesn't totally disgrace itself. Carrie 2 felt a bit like a `part remake/part sequel.' It was certainly good to see the one of the main actresses come back for the sequel - it helped bridge the gap quite nicely. The `new' plot basically recycles the old one. If you don't know what happens - basically, bullied girl gets revenge on her tormentors through her uncontrollable telekinetic powers. Anyway, the film is actually pretty good. No, it'll never recapture the `shock value' of the original as you basically know what's coming, but it's an enjoyable horror-yarn nonetheless. If you liked the original, you shouldn't feel too aggrieved at someone cashing in on the Carrie-name after two decades. And, if you haven't seen the first one, you should get what's going on without feeling you've missed out. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Very strange. This whole film was just dumb in my opinion. A lot of the 2000’s slang used was outdated. I don’t understand how it was necessary to make a sequel. Carrie just leaves no room for one, I guess Rachel being Carries sister was a smart workaround, but the movie was too boring. It’s ok to watch casually, and some of the jumpscares are decent but that’s all the praise I’m giving it. An objectively bad film. 1.5/5 stars. (P.S. what the hell was that dream sequence at the end? It was super weird and I don’t get it.) Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/22/24 Full Review Manuel G In Carrie 3(not the remake), we need to see who plays Ralph White?
