A great movie! One of my favorite 80's horror movies.

I'm obsessed with this movie! When i first saw it in the theatres back in the 80's, this movie was severely cut due to the graphic violence. I love everything about this movie, from the casting, to the location shots, to the storyline and acting. For those unfamilar with the Troma movies, Troma is a company that specializes in grade B horror/sci-fi exploitation flicks. Many of the Troma movies have a very dark and twisted sense of humor to them, in additon to the drama and suspense or horror. Mother's Day is no exception. The story is about three girls who were best friends in college, who go on yearly reunions where they camp in the woods. This time they have chosen to camp out in an area where a demented family of hillbilly rednecks are living. Mother is the head of this strange family. She is living with her two backwoods sons and schooling them in the art and specialty of attacking and rapeing and killing of young women. This whole premise sounds totally sick and demented, and it is....as only the Troma team can present it. You have to see this movie to believe how incredibly over-the-top it is. The performances are excellent, especially the two sons. They are both adults, but behave like children due to their backwards upbringing. All that these boys want to do is make their Mother proud and be the best killers possible. The chemistry and interaction between Mother and her two sons makes for fun viewing. Even the three girls who eventually get kidnapped give credible performances. A lot of the female victims in horror movies are disposable characters that you really don't care if they get killed off or not, but there's enough character development here that you'll find yourself caring about the girls in Mother's Day. The final climactic showdown scene between the girls and the sons is exciting and memorable, mostly for the creative use of weapons. The only cheesy part of that scene was when one of the girls was shown holding a television set over her head as a murder weapon. You'll have to suspend your disbelief on that one. I guess tv sets were really light way back then (i'm being sarcastic!).The dvd extras include commercials for other Troma films, a few comedy skits about Troma that are so-so, and other stuff about Troma Studios. The best extra has to be the director's commentary because it is one of the best i've heard for a grade B horror movie since the commentary for The Evil Dead. I learned so much trivia and interesting info on the making of Mother's Day from the commentary. Fans of the movie will love the commentary!This movie has elements of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Last House On The Left, and i highly recommend this movie if you're a fan. Please keep in mind that Mother's Day is a dark comedy horror movie. It IS a horror movie, there's no denying that, BUT there are enough elements of twisted dark comedy to it involving the personalities of the two sons and their interaction with each other that it reminds us we're not watching a totally serious horror movie such as The Exorcist. Mother's Day is not for everyone, and many of the reviewers here on Amazon have said it's the worst film they have ever seen, blah blah blah. Anyone who says that is not a true fan of Troma films because they obviously don't understand the genre. You'll need to watch more than one Troma film to understand that statement. Just watch the trailers for the other films on this dvd and you'll know what i mean. This movie is excellent and i'm glad to see the dvd is the director's cut with all the violence and gore that was cut from the theatrical print lovingly put back in. If you loved Motel Hell (and i DO!!), you'll love Mother's Day.

Outstanding Trash...Gotta Love It!!

I have seen this movie several times, the special FX are nothing more than [junk], the storyline is tolerable, and the acting is ridiculous. All in all a wonderful "B" Flick to sit down and sink your teeth into. Any reviewer that feels this movie has to be analysed to be death has too much time on his hands. This movie is what it is and that's all!! Just enjoy it for that simple reason.
I have enjoyed this movie for many years and will continue to enjoy it for many to come. I am still trying to get my hands on the unrated widescreen version (if there is one...)(fingers crossed!!).

Sexy Rednecks Get Killed by College Bimbos

Two really hot rednecks are unfortunately killed by two ex college roomies who apparantly have nothing better to do then get together once a year to remember (choke) their college days.
They start out as a trio and thankfully one of them is done away with early on. The other two kill the sexy rednecks and then their retarded mother. I mean really...the only interesting people in this film are the redneck boys and then those college morons killed them. Thankfully at the end, the maniacal QUEENIE jumps out and gives those girls WHAT FOR for murdering her hot nephews.
I was rooting for the rednecks all the way. If I had met them I would have asked them for a date. Why are women always turning down advances by such hot guys. What is a dude to do when women are always killing the hottest trade?
