Carrie, Brain del Palma's 1976 horror triumph, was actually nominated for two high ranking Oscars. To my knowledge this was the first time since The Exorcist that a horror film was even up for consideration. It didn't win unfortunately, but both Sissy Spacek (Carrie) and Piper Laurie (Carrie's mother) were nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role and Supporting Role respectively. In my opinion Spacek should have walked away with it!
