So great!
I love the guy at 1:20 who, when everyone else is freaking out, just quietly says "oh no".
And somewhere in the second half there was a woman who I swear meowed. Twice.

I cannot even begin to imagine how I would react. Because of all the adrenaline suddenly shooting through our bodies, I assume the "fight or flight" would kick in. I'd be the first one running out of there, Pissing myself.
My favorite reaction is the construction worker who is actually putting his hands up to try and stop the tables from moving.

I like to believe that I'd know it was a prank and that I'd start applauding and laughing wildly.
More than likely, I'd have SH*T my pants.

Love her scream at the end. She should be playing Carrie.

Finebydesign, I'm pretty sure it's ALL fake. i think it's intended as a commercial of sorts.
That scream is remarkable, isn't it, best12bars? I wonder if she had a little assist in that? I hope so. Just hearing it hurts my throat.

All I know is as good as those live effects are, it wouldn't make half the impact if that girl wasn't so convincing. She did a great job.
As for pranks like this, I always hate them. I don't find them funny or entertaining. It's not my kind of humor ever.
So I admire the talent and execution involved, but the idea? Not at all.

Pretty good!
ghostlight, I don't think it's all fake. Those extras are very naturalistic, if so.

The company that was hired by the studio producing "Carrie" is one of my clients. So I can confirm that the unsuspecting customers are very much real. Ghostlight is wrong.
Jay, 95% of the people you see in each of those shots are indeed extras. Only those who were chosen as "targets" or happened to walk in during the sequence of events are completely unaware of the prank.

This is such a well produced, well executed idea. Kudos. Very entertaining. I LOLed so loud, my upstairs' neighbor's dogs are barking at me.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

If they did this in some of the red states, I think she would have been shot...
But, good prank.

So I'm only 5% wrong

I think you meant Massachusetts, Reg. Mississippians are a'scairt of witches.

Well, the Massachusniks only ever hanged them. And I think they're over it anyway.
