She timidly started to believe that perhaps the humiliation had passed, until she ascended the stage and blood coated her, turning their applause to laughter. And then the murders began.

Genius
Ooo
a nice laconically descriptive synopsis for a devilishly shit-the-bed scary film ;)
JessicaJohnson
@lowercasemmmmmm Haha! Thank you. ;)
SRBecker
Love it! This was the first Stephen King book I ever read, and one of the best, still! Good twist!
JessicaJohnson
@SRBecker Thank you! :) The first Stephen King book I read was Pet Sematary. Loved the book. Never watched the film though. I always worry after reading a book that watching the movie will let me down. ;p I have, however, watched Carrie. ;)
SRBecker
Carrie is a movie that I thought TRULY did the book justice! I also read Pet Cemetary, and watched the movie. The movie was good too, but somehow so much more sad and tragic to me than the book.
Mel
