This board is for anything related to the The Rage, the sequel to the 1976 film. Feel free to post or start a topic relating to any aspects of the film itself! There's boards above devoted to the specific actors. Also, I do realize that the section of my site devoted to "The Rage" is lacking in content. I do like the film, but my DVD mysteriously vanished in a move a few months back, and despite exhaustive searches, I haven't been able to find any press materials for it (aside from on eBay). I will flesh the section out in the future...

I do not understand why you do like this movie which is in fact more a remake of the original than an original sequel. Anyway this was good to see Amy Irving fot the nostalgia.

Yes, in essence, it IS a remake since it basically has the same structure (unpopular girl gets teased and ultimately humiliated at a big event with her peers, then goes crazy and murders them). But the performances are great, the characters are different (Rachel's unpopular, but a very different character than Carrie), it's got some pretty original secondary plots (the score book) along with some beautiful visuals (Lisa's suicide) and Katt Shea's direction was phenomenal -- particularly considering she had a weekend to prepare.
I was annoyed when I first heard about the film and expected to hate it, but I changed my tune when I saw it. I've always said if they hadn't clumsily tied the two films together, it might've been a hit on its own merits.

I personally think it should have been a little like the Hannibal Lecter series. If it would've had a different name it would have been better and still been a kindve sequel.

I never saw the film. I'm not interesseted. Especially because it's not by De Palma. I read an interview of him few days ago. He was saying that it didn't wanted to make it because, at the exception of The Gdfather Part 2, all sequels are always made only for money.
I suppose I'll see it some day but I'm really not motived yet.

I thought it was a good movie for a second one from the original first Carrie. But I did like the gore in it

This film is far inferior to the original but studios always follow a formula and at the time, Carrie was a pop culture influenced film. They had to follow suit. The only difference is, this movie isn't very hip. Everyone is a superficial visual interpretation of their character and they all speak their subtext.

This movie is like National Treasure 2. There's nothing we didn't cover in the first one, so why waste film and money?

i did like the plot of this story alot. I mean how Lisa's suicide compares to when Rachel's humiliated at the party. I did like how they did the massacre too.

THE RAGE: CARRIE 2 is the best movie ever. The first time I've seen some footage when I was a young buck. I remember when Rachel being humiliated when she was having sex with Jesse, and it was on tape. I felt so sorry for Rachel, but she's kinda sweet and awesome, and I love her. I been dying about this movie since.....I DON'T KNOW!!! I JUST LOVE IT!!!! The problem is, I wish I want this movie for DVD. I tried to get it, but I couldn't. I will accomplish my mission to get this movie, and once I get it, I plan on making a movie that based on this film. That's my master plan, and I'm still bragging about this movie. The actors and actress like, Emily Bergl, Jason London, Dylan Bruno, Zachery Ty Bryan, are perfect in this film. I started watch some of thier films that are available on TV. I got this song in my head that I always love, it's from "Mortal Kombat II". It's called "Air Kombat"-The Tower arena. I love that song, and you should listen to it while you're looking at the pictures, the poster, and the DVD cover of THE RAGE: CARRIE 2. I'm telling you, you can't get it out of your head. It's very good, too, because you know why, because I'm a big fan of "CARRIE" and "THE RAGE: CARRIE 2". You'll hear me again soon. Later.
