Movie Trailer for the Remake of MOTHER'S DAY
Here's the first trailer for Darren Lynn Bousman's remake of the disturbing 1980's cult horror film Mother's Day. The trailer comes from Bloody-Disgusting, who explains that it's not an official trailer but more of a promo sales trailer to show to distributors.
The original film was pretty damned disturbing, and I don't think I'll be watching it again anytime soon. This new movie doesn't look like it's going to be as insane as the original. The new film takes the story in a different direction than the first movie.
Here's the synopsis for the film:
After a bank robbery gone wrong, three brothers head for home, hoping their MOTHER (Rebecca De Mornay) can provide them with a getaway. The youngest brother, JOHNNY (Matt O'Leary), has been shot, and their back-stabbing former partner has gotten away with all the cash.
But when the brothers get home, they find that all their stuff is gone, and Mother is nowhere to be found: She lost the house months ago in a foreclosure. The new owners, BETH and DANIEL SOHAPI (Jaime King and Frank Grillo), and their guests, gathered for an ill-timed birthday party, become the brothers' unwitting hostages.
Not long after, Mother arrives, along with the boys' sister LYDIA (Deborah Ann Woll), and it soon becomes clear that Mother will do absolutely anything to protect her children. In one terrifying evening she brilliantly takes control of the situation and masterminds her sons' escape from the law.
Sides will be taken, secrets revealed, and sins punished as the hostages struggle to make it through the night alive.
