About this episode

Go to your closet and pray, ask to be forgiven. In the latest installment of The Long Watch, the Losers head to Bates High to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Brian De Palma's Carrie. It's there singer-songwriter Colleen Green joins them on the dance floor to discuss De Palma's style, the film's star-studded cast of then-unknowns, and the not-so-long road from page to screen for Stephen King.
