The Rage: Carrie 2 is a 1999 American supernatural horror film directed by Katt Shea, and starring Emily Bergl, Jason London, Dylan Bruno, J. Smith-Cameron and Amy Irving.

Its plot follows the younger half-sister of Carrie White (Bergl), also suffering with telekinesis, who finds that her best friend's suicide was spurred by a group of popular male classmates who exploited her for sexual gain.

[2] It received generally negative reviews, which criticized the routine recycling of the original film's story and themes.

Her best friend Lisa Parker commits suicide by leaping from the school's roof after popular football star Eric Stark dumped her, having exploited her for sex.

Sheriff Kelton and the school's guidance counselor, Sue Snell, pursue statutory rape charges against Eric, who is 18 while Lisa is 15.

Rachel's Basset Hound, Walter, is hit by a car and she flags down a driver, who is Jesse Ryan, another player on the team.

Meanwhile, having discovered that Rachel implicated them in Lisa's death, Eric and Mark attempt to scare her into silence by harassing her at her home, but her telekinetic powers frighten them away.

Sue brings Rachel to the ruins of the high school which Carrie destroyed in a telekinetic rage in 1976 after being humiliated at her senior prom.

Rachel makes Monica's glasses implode into her eyes, killing her and causing her to inadvertently castrate Eric with a harpoon.

[11] In a 2024 interview, Irving said De Palma and herself liked the original director [presumably Robert Mandel], factoring into her agreement to perform in it.

Rotten Tomatoes reported the film had a 23% approval rating based on 39 reviews with the consensus: "As disposable as its predecessor is indispensable, The Rage: Carrie 2 mimics the arc of Stephen King's classic story without adding anything of value.

"[20] Both Ebert and Gates commented on the absurdity of the scene at the high school's ruins, which had not been cleared away despite two decades having passed.

[19][20] Dennis Harvey of Variety panned the film, noting that it "uses the original as a blueprint, but leaves out all the wit, sympathy and bravado."

[22] He wrote, "The most satisfying change writer Rafael Moreu (Hackers) and director Katt Shea (Poison Ivy) have made is to their heroine.

She’s the antithesis of the glamorous faux nerd played by Rachael Leigh Cook in She's All That, and newcomer Emily Bergl portrays her with a nicely sulky empathy, equal parts hurt and hope.

"[22] Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times championed the film as a "well-directed sequel" that treats the supernatural elements as simply obligatory devices while focusing instead on the deep and realistic social drama.

[23] John Kenneth Muir wrote that the abrupt death of Sue Snell was "certainly powerful in terms of shock effect, but it also makes the rest of the film seem incomplete.
