This week we're reviewing Carrie (1976), Stephen King's groundbreaking horror classic directed by Brian De Palma. Is Carrie a masterpiece of psychological horror, a tragic coming-of-age story, or simply the most unforgettable prom night disaster in movie history?

We debate whether Carrie was justified, discuss the film's lasting impact on horror cinema, and somehow end up comparing it to Star Wars, Freddy Krueger, and The Waterboy..

But before the review even begins, the Dungeon of Doom faces a horror of its own...

Logan is preparing for his community college prom! Armed with questionable meat cologne, family-heirloom jock straps, bath salts, excessive ruffles, and a limousine driven by Nicolas Cage, what could possibly go wrong?

Probably everything.

As Logan prepares for the biggest night of his life, the crew debates whether he'll find true love, embarrass himself in front of Florence Pugh, or accidentally burn down the gymnasium and recreate Carrie's infamous prom massacre..
