The character of Arnie, Rachel's nerdy friend, is a direct reference to Stephen King's novel-turned-movie Christine, in which the lead character was a nerdy guy named Arnie.

Pannen:

Abfolgefehler: When Rachel breaks the snow globe in the teacher's office the glass is completely shattered, but when the teacher looks at it it has a big piece of glass still standing up on it.

"Carrie" forth the good and so-so news

Admittedly, "The Rage: Carrie 2" can't equal the quality established by its predecessor. But it's better than I expected it to be. Portraying an outcast high school student (Emily Bergl) discovering that she has telekinetic powers - don't worry; it gets explained - and using them to get revenge on her tormentors, it mostly repeats everything from the original. But the good aspect comes from how they set up some scenes and shock you (I really liked the shattering ball). Finally, the party at the end just might make your blood freeze.

Overall, this is a movie worth seeing, if only once. Of course, you'll have to see the original first, so as to understand everything that happens in this one. Also starring Amy Irving and Mena Suvari (right before she played Kevin Spacey's sexual fantasy in "American Beauty").
