Welcome to the final week of Mother's May(hem) on Slashers Podcast!
A month long event where we discuss horror films that highlight the joys and terrors of motherhood. Today Ade, Austin and Lance discuss 1999's The Rage: Carrie 2! Also, today's episode is so special because for the first time ever in Slashers Podcast history, all 3 hosts LIVE IN FLORIDA. Your degenerates await you!
This film was initially intended to be a standalone, but was reworked to be a sequel to everyone's favorite telekinetic, teen angsty, Stephen King character 1974's Carrie. Written by Rafael Moreu and directed by Katt Shea, it stars Emily Bergl as Rachel Lang, a young goth chick who witnesses her best friend in a horrific accident (trigger warning) and must navigate the hell that is high school, all while her own mother is locked away in an institution for schizophrenia. Anyway, much like its predecessor, our protagonist does discover she has some special abilities, but unlike Carrie, Rachel seems to keep them on the back burner until our final act. The film also stars other 90s favorites such as Jason London (Dazed and Confused), Rachel Blanchard (Clueless), Dylan Bruno (Saving Private Ryan), Zachery Ty Bryan (Home Improvement), Mena Suvari (American Pie), Eddie Kaye Thomas (American Pie), J. Smith Cameron, and Amy Irving reprising her role as Sue Snell from Brian de Palma's Carrie. While this movie was initially a flop, it has since developed a cult following. And while it may not hold a candle to his first installment, it's still pretty damn good. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts!!
