Back in November, Anchor Bay Entertainment announced the acquisition of Darren Lynn Bousman's remake of Mother's Day. Today, a new report tells us to expected a Blu-ray/DVD and limited theatrical release in May:

Via Fangoria: "...MOTHER’S DAY will have exclusive theatrical engagements in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago May 4, followed by DVD and Blu-ray/DVD combo pack releases May 8. The discs will present the movie in 16x9-enhanced 2.40:1 widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound on the DVD and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 sound on the Blu-ray; also included will be audio commentary by director Bousman and co-star Shawn Ashmore."

Mother’s Day is directed by Darren Lynn Bousman and stars Rebecca DeMornay, Jamie King, Deborah Ann Woll, Patrick John Flueger and Shawn Ashmore.

"After a bank robbery gone wrong, three brothers head for home…only to discover that their mother lost the house in a foreclosure. The new owners and their guests, gathered for an ill-timed birthday party, become the brothers’ unwitting hostages. Their mother and sister arrive, and it soon becomes obvious that Mother will do absolutely anything to protect her children. In one terrifying evening, Mother brilliantly takes control of the situation and masterminds her sons’ escape. Sides will be taken, secrets revealed, and sins punished as the hostages struggle to make it through the night."
