Mother's Day
If you go down to the woods today.
Directed by Charles Kaufman
Produced by Duty Productions, United Film Distribution Company (UFDC)
A transgressive exploitation horror-comedy that pairs graphic violence and sexual assault with darkly absurdist humor, creating a deliberately distressing and provocative viewing experience.
Three girls discover that two men are willing to do anything to impress Mother and what impresses Mother is watching her sons commit acts of rape and murder. Now these women are prisoners and lowered to pawns in the game of checkers between two dim wits and their Maniac Mommy and the question becomes, can any of them escape, alive?
