Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the first object, from the answers below, that Carrie manipulates with her mind?

Answer: Ashtray

The ashtray flies into the air after Carrie yells her correct name at the principal, who keeps calling her Cassie.

2. What is the name of the book that Carrie reads in the library to learn more about her special powers?

Answer: "The Secret Science Behind Miracles"

Carrie flips through many library cards before she finally decides on "The Secret Science Behind Miracles". Although this scene is relatively brief, Carrie learns that her powers are real and she's also not the only person who has them; there are others. Later in the film, her mother sees these powers as the devil's work but Carrie knows that it's not.

Answer: The Sins of Women

You can see the title of the book section in an over-the-shoulder shot of Mrs. White's book.

4. The boy on the bicycle who taunts Carrie and gets knocked over by her telekinetic powers is related to director Brian DePalma in what way?

Answer: nephew

Cameron DePalma, who played the boy on the bike, was in fact the director's nephew. This information was retrieved from the internet movie database.

5. The "blood" used in the cruel, yet classic, prom prank is supposed to be pig's blood. What was actually used?

Answer: karo syrup and food coloring

While karo syrup and food coloring were used instead of blood, Sissy Spacek (Carrie) was willing to use real blood. Eww!

6. Which character is banned from going to the prom?

Answer: Chris Hargensen

Sue voluntarily gives her ticket to Carrie so Carrie can go with Sue's boyfriend, Tommy Ross. Obviously Carrie attends the prom, as does Norma (the girl with the red baseball cap). Chris is banned from prom for not fulfilling her obligations in detention.

7. Which character is incorrectly matched with the actor who played him/her?

Answer: Priscilla Pointer - Chris Hargensen

Priscilla Pointer actually played Mrs. Snell, Sue's mother. Here's a bit of trivia: Priscilla Pointer and Amy Irving, who play mother and daughter in this film, are real-life mother and daughter. You can thank imdb.com for that info.

8. Where is Carrie sent as punishment and to pray for forgiveness for her sins?

Answer: the closet

The first time we see her sent there is the day she gets her first period. It's dark, small and has a single candle as well a small figure of Jesus crucified. This figure is a little scary, as the eyes seem to glow a bright white.

9. What is the name of Carrie's high school?

Answer: Bates High

The school was named Bates High by the as a reference to Norman Bates of Alfred Hitchcock's movie, "Psycho". As I've never read the book, I don't know if the name of the school is the same. This information was retrieved from the internet movie database from the trivia section for this film.

10. What is Carrie's mom's first name?

Answer: Margaret

You can check out the internet movie database to see the full list of cast and crew as well as other aspects of this film. Thanks for taking my quiz. Remember, I appreciate any feedback as well as constructive criticism and corrections.
