This sounds bad. If you want a good version of Carrie, go watch the Sissy Spacek movie.

I...disagree. I think Mike Flanagan's previous work in both making new IP horror movies and shows, and making remakes/follow-ups while honoring the original material (ie, Doctor Sleep) has been rather consistently decent. If it's horror related, I pay attention about what this guy might do next. And some others, like Ari Aster, but to me Flanagan is actually a good sign.
I agree. I would ignore a Carrie series if it didn't have his name attached.
After I saw Flanagan's The Haunting of Hill House, I watched The Haunting. The Haunting was a decent horror movie, but Flanagan made something unique with his miniseries.
Yeah that's when i started paying attention to what this guy does... Really good series.
