Thanks for the comment I appreciate it very much as parts of my film were inspired by Mother's Day and a bit of Jason Goes to Hell such as the possession idea which is more subtle in Mother's Day than it was in Jason Goes to Hell.
Anyway I love this movie and the story is very entertaining, plus I would really like it if Cory could adapt Jason's Curse too, I think he'd do an excellent job once again. My favorite moments in Mother's day are between the characters rather than the kill scenes strangely enough, and this proves it was well written and directed!
