Troma Films, never ones to miss capitalizing on a trend, made
their entry into the "holiday-themed slasher" genre (you know
. . . "Friday The 13th," "Prom Night," "New Year's Evil," "My
Bloody Valentine," etc.) with "Mother's Day." And, believe it or
not, "Mother's Day" stands head and shoulders above a majority of
the teen slice-n-dice flicks of the time. By turns funny,
depressing, disgusting, and grueling, "Mother's Day" is anything
but forgettable and rote . . .
It is the story of three mischievous college room-mates at
their ten-year reunion; which happens to be a camping trip in the
wilds of New Jersey. Of course, these particular woods are inhabited
by a lunatic backwoods family of three: Mother and her sons Ike
and Addley. Soon, our intrepid college pranksters are captured by
the brothers grim and are forced to submit to brutal torture and
rape . . . just like the boys have seen on TV. Eventually the
girls escape their house of horrors (but not before one of them
suffers incorrectible bodily harm) and come back to seek out
revenge.
