Title: Mother's Day Post by: melvinthemopboy3 on June 17, 2011, 09:23:48 AM I'm a big fan of this one. It's a Troma release, but it was directed by Lloyd Kaufman's brother, Charles. It's got some pretty creepy scenes, and the acting of the mother and the two brothers is fitting and weird. Eli Roth claims that it was a big inspiration, and the poolside scene was undoubtedly payed homage by PT Anderson in the opening scenes of Boogie Nights. Thoughts?

I thought it was exploitive,sick,and....pretty great! I like how the brothers are "citified" by tv and the media.

Lloyd Kaufman will be there answering questions, and he'll bring with him some sexy Tromettes, as well as The Toxic Avenger himself! Hope to see some badmovies.org cretins out there!
