It’s no secret that Stephen King is the king of the horror genre. His novels are some of the most popular horror stories to date, and there are so many to choose from. So it’s not really a surprise that the films adapted from his books are also highly ranked within the genre. The very first film adaptation of one of his novels was Carrie — a film about a teenage girl who discovers she has telekinetic powers. Directed by Brian De Palma in 1976, Carrie stars Sissy Spacek in the leading role. But as it turns out, that wasn’t the original plan. Brian De Palma originally had his eye on someone else for the lead role, and Spacek only received an audition as a friendly favor.
