RELEASED TO VIDEO IN 2007 and directed/written by Jeff Roenning, "Mother's Day Massacre" is a slasher revolving around a group of New Jersey teens going to Redneckville to find the long lost mother of one of them. Havoc ensues when a couple of psycho rednecks attack.The catchy oddball rock song by House of X that plays over the creative opening credits and the girl who plays Steph (whose role is brief) are the only reasons for maybe watching this trash. The other two females are okay and the overall filmmaking isn't bad for amateurs. There are attempts at goofy, crude humor. It could've worked, but it's brought down by irrelevant, nonsensical scenes and a sleazy, vulgar degenerate tone. Too much of the runtime takes place in a rank dilapidated house.THE MOVIE RUNS 77 minutes and was shot in northern New Jersey.GRADE: D

I was impressed with the professional look of this movie. For the indie scene these guys did it right. The acting was on par with the old indie films of the early 80s. I have to say I really enjoyed the Redneck Father, his dialogue was great. Good actor. The girls were hot and played off the coy, sexy, teen-tease part really well. The overall story line was predictable but presented in a humorous fashion that made me laugh. I especially liked the hot-blooded Latino "den mother from Hell" part, that was an interesting twist from your standard white trash "den mother from Hell." The fact that the Fat Redneck kid is named "Jesus" made me smirk. There were some impressive CGI visual effect head shots at the end that really took me by surprise. I would have liked it to be just a little bit longer but I can overlook that. I thought the ending was clever and well designed, though I would have liked "Jim" to hook up with "Jen" before they knocked her off. I half expected the kid in the overalls at the end to say something like "F-ing Pineys" when the truck drove by but I'll take it as it is. Great indie flick, very impressed with the cinematography and the editing. Highly recommend viewing this one.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. Do not waste your time. This movie makes no sense at all and is nothing more than boring. I do not want to consume any more of my time with this complete junk of film yet I feel a review is necessary. Heed the warning as pointed out in another review. I have no idea what this film is about and neither will you. This film is unwatchable and complete garbage. A detriment to good film. I still want that hour of my life back. It contains terrible acting with a lousy storyline basically copying other Massacre titles. An unsavory frustrating cinematic experience. This movie isn't worth watching at all.

SURPRISE! You have an STD! You know what, I actually WOULDN'T be surprised if I got and STD from this piece of eye raping crap that some people would call "Mother's Day Massacre". I got this in a four movie collection from Echo Bridge Entertainment (and, for the record, they have a tendency to produce such crap, so whenever I see their logo, I die a little inside) known as "Backwoods Butchers", and none of them were worth watching twice. As for this one in particular, it isn't worth watching AT ALL. It's about some guy, who looks for his mother in some town, and meets some retarded kids who's mother is some weird Mexican chick who wants to kill the kid because his dad won't pay for their taken pot. First of all, the beginning made no sense, and I didn't click together that the chick who gets killed is even the main characters mother, and I didn't care enough to even gave a crap about the fact that he got his girlfriend pregnant, because frankly, I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW HE GOT HER PREGNANT! See, when we first meet them both they were afraid to take a bubble bath together. He wasn't even allowed to look at her boobs! So, how they even got to have sex, I'll never know. But, just, promise me you'll never watch this movie. It makes no sense, and insults the intelligence of every horror film buff, and even lowers a person's I.Q a few DOZEN points. Oh, and God, I want that hour of my life back.
