Perhaps the novel explains it - I haven't read it in years - but why did Chris insist on killing a pig in order to humiliate Carrie? Couldn't she just as easily filled that bucket with pig urine or something?

Pigs blood is easier to get. pigs urine… really? you want that task? you must really hate Carrie White in order to go from swine to swine with a bucket under their hoohahs!
the basis was 'pigs blood for a pig' her being all mousy and hair drawn and dirty is where the pig comes from.
the blood also comes from what happened to carrie in the beginning and how she reacted to it. she didn't sit in class and wet herself, she had her first period and had no idea what it was.
