Have you gotten your lovely mother a gift yet? Better hurry, Sunday’s the big day!
Of course, if you’re not in the mood, or your mom has as sick a sensibility as you do, perhaps the timely new still and Japanese one-sheet for Darren Bousman’s MOTHER’S DAY is something you wanna share. After-all, nothing’s more endearing than a thick puddle of blood!
Starring the likes of Rebecca De Mornay (below), Matt O’Leary, Jaime King, Frank Grillo, Deborah Ann Woll, Shawn Ashmore, Lisa Marcos, Patrick Flueger, Tony Nappo, Warren Kole and Briana Evigan – MOTHER’S DAY is put in motion when:
After a bank robbery gone wrong, three brothers head for home, hoping their MOTHER can provide them with a getaway. The youngest brother, JOHNNY, 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, 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, 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.
I personally like how the gory corpse in the still has a “Happy Mother’s Day” card lying by his side. Pure poetry!
MOTHER’S DAY is supposed to release in limited theaters before the summer. Time’s a tickin’ though, so you never know.
Now that’s some Mother!
