While most people abhor the modern remakes of original horror films, I find myself loving so many of these remakes (aka reboots of older horror movies).
2010's Mother's Day is the most recent gem that I've come across. Another to add to my list of better than the originals, horror movie remakes. Not only does this film have a stellar cast of actors (many of them well-known for being in other modern horror films/TV series), but the script for this remake is hands down a 1000 times better than the 1981 original. It so far surpasses it's 1981 original in every single aspect. Script, cast, direction, and an actual decent budget, all positives that work toward creating a film that is way more entertaining and enjoyable than its b- movie original.
I'd recommend this film to all horror movie fans, and say to those who rant and rave criticisms for all of our modern horror movie remakes.. if they could get over the fact that these films are "remakes" , they'd probably find that these films are helluva fun thrill rides that are likely to provide great entertainment to all who enjoy the horror/thriller genres of movies.
