'Carrie' remake: Watch the first trailer here

The first trailer for the Carrie remake, starring Julianne Moore and Chloë Grace Moretz, is here!

Directed by Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don’t Cry) the film is billed as a reimagining of the horror classic, based on the novel by Stephen King, which originally starred Piper Laurie and Sissy Spacek as the title character.

Trailer verdict: This movie will definitely be better than Carrie 2, which we all try to forget exists.

Carrie opens in theaters Oct. 18.
