Its mix of nudity, strong female protagonist and “shock” ending also set a template for horror films that would last for the next three decades. SUPPLIED Hollywood reinterpreted horror’s Maine man Stephen King’s masterwork Carrie for a whole new generation in 2013. SUPPLIED Julianne Moore and Chloe Grace Moretz play mother and daughter in Carrie. There’s also a terrifically understated performance by Judy Greer (The Descendants) as Carrie’s kind PE teacher, Ms Desjardin.
