Factual error: In a flashback scene, Carrie's mother is giving birth in bed; there is blood, but no placenta or umbilical cord, which we can see when the mother picks up her baby and places her on her chest.
Carrie (2013)
1 factual error
Directed by: Kimberly Peirce
Starring: Julianne Moore, Judy Greer, Chloe Grace Moretz, Ansel Elgort, Gabriella Wilde
Revealing mistake: When Tommy Ross gets killed and Carrie looks at his supposedly lifeless body if you look closely you will notice he blinks revealing that he is actually alive.
Carrie White: If I concentrate hard enough I can make things move.
Trivia: It has been correctly pointed out that in the scene where Carrie is born, there's no placenta. In the novel, the account of Carrie's birth makes a reference to "the baby, still partially wrapped in the placental membrane." In other words, Carrie was born with a caul, which, according to lore, indicates she'll have supernatural powers.
Question: What does the grave cracking mean?
Answer: It's most likely just a metaphor for the terrible memories that those who survived the prom massacre must have in their minds forever. The memory of Carrie White haunts them.
Chosen answer: It is an implication that Carrie White is not really dead.
