Rebecca DeMornay is a bad parent in the new trailer for Mother’s Day

MOTHER’S DAY has been sitting on the shelf since 2010, which is usually a bad sign for a movie. But, it is finally being released by Anchor Bay Entertainment and there is a new trailer alongside it.

The film is a remake of the 1980 Troma Entertainment film of the same name which was a goofy and cheezy exploitation film.  Much like other recent remakes of THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT and STRAW DOGS, this film takes a brutal and dark film and just does nothing unique with it.

Synopsis: After a bank robbery gone wrong, three brothers, on the run from the law, head for home, hoping their Mother (De Mornay) can provide them with a getaway. But when the brothers get home, they find that all their stuff is gone and Mother is nowhere to be found. The new owners, and their guests, gathered for an ill-timed birthday party, become the brothers’ unwitting hostages. Not long after, Mother arrives 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 survive.

MOTHER’S DAY was directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (SAW) and produced by Brett Ratner (X-MEN: THE LAST STAND).  It stars Rebecca De Mornay, Jaime King, Briana Evigan, and Alexa Vega.
