Carrie (2013) – Horror Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I love films where the bullied get revenge on those that wronged them. Most likely my adoration for these movies stem from my lack of popularity during my younger days in school. I was made fun of, pushed down, punched, and was encouraged to commit […]
