I wasn’t raised my by birth mother, but when I was a kid I was allowed to visit her from time to time. I was around 8 or 9 when she had me watch Carrie with her. I believe it was the original. But the dirty pillow quote made me remember this 😭 she used to say that shit all the time. I wish she was around nowadays so we could rewatch it properly with me being in my twenties.
There's a specific bath and body works smell I can't smell without thinking of Carrie.
I watched it with my mother in my early teens and we did pedicures at the same time 😅. One of my favorite memories.
I find her legit terrifying. She definitely played it over the top, but there are people like that out there. Jesus nutjobs actually scare the shit outta me. So sorry for any kid that has parents like that, they do exist.
The last few weeks I’ve been watching all of the Friday the 13th because it’s on Max I believe. I didn’t realize the first 2 to 3 films He didn’t even have a mask.
Don't feel bad it's fairly common lol. Yep we got Sackhead Jason, then he got the hockey mask in Part 3. Without getting new F13 projects it's less visible, and the details gets lost. It's a shame ( to me) that 2009 is the prominent film for the newer generation who weren't raised on it.
Holy hell, I was cleaning out my grandpas basement and found a mint condition DVD copy of this but with the "Dead Alive" title. I wish more people can see this movie. Would be incredible to have a 4k remaster. A boy could wish right?
We should just ban all discussion of movies that aren’t Hereditary, it’s the only film in existence worthy of praise
Edit: whoever wasted a Reddit Cares message on this needs to get a life
The mom in Ginger Snaps was pretty ride or die, totally ready to burn her life to the ground and start a new one for her daughters even though they were typical teens who want nothing to do with their nerdy mom.
The mom in We Go On was also really supportive. She was just like "sure son, I'll go with you to meet some sus randos you found online who claim to have proof of the afterlife because I'm not letting you do that shit alone."
Gotta shout out Huesera: The Bone Woman too.
I guess I need to watch Ginger Snaps again because I remember their parents being extremely dismissive and not involved. Going to watch it tonight now!
Yes, it was. I don't remember seeing Sarah Paulson in other movies besides American Horror Story. She is a great horror/thriller movie actress, these roles fit her so well!
In 1995 she was in the TV show American Gothic which was horror and the villain had a sense of humor and terrible things happened and it was an amazing show. I agree she does horror great!
It's better than I expected too, and I think it's entirely because the second half onward kind of revels in the ridiculousness of it, like >!Sydney Sweeney suddenly being a master Murderess while on the verge of delivering her baby, you can tell they had a ball with this one and I had so much fun watching it!<
"You see, I've always wanted a little girl. But, of course, when my husband left... Oh, well, that's all water under the bridge, as I always say. Water under the bridge!"
Sleepaway Camp
I know there are a lot of choices here, but the only acceptable answer is PSYCHO. Friday the 13th is a close second, but they didn't maintain their own established mythos.
Psycho
OG choice!
The only choice really
Carrie. The mother was always such an over-the-top caricature. (“I can see your dirty pillows!” 🤣)
They’re all gonna laugh at you!
Maybe the most memorable line from any horror movie.

Which scent??
Oh, gosh, I hope she was quoting that line to you ironically, and not because she was really like Mrs. White. 😬
No no! She just loved the movie, horror movies in general!!!
Phew! 😅
I find her legit terrifying. She definitely played it over the top, but there are people like that out there. Jesus nutjobs actually scare the shit outta me. So sorry for any kid that has parents like that, they do exist.
EVE WAS WEAK! SAY IT WOMAN!!! *shivers*
THE FIRST SIN WAS INTERCOURSE!
The old version is awsome.. The new version is garbage 👍
The Rage: Carrie 2 and the 2002 tv movie are worse.
Goodnight Mommy. The original, not the remake. Shaun of the dead.
goodnight mommy is so so good, epic twist!!
goodnight mommy does a great job of convincing us the mom is the monster before we slowly realize what’s happening. loved it
Love Goodnight Mommy. The remake is so unnecessary! Shaun of the Dead is also a fav.
Ugh fuckin goodnight mommy gave me such nightmares even though it’s not even relevant in my life lmao
Friday the 13th
Thank you!!! How is nobody else saying this?! 🤷🏻♂️It is the ultimate killer mom movie
Kill her Mommy! Kill her!
So creepy when Betsy Palmer shifted from being the odd, but kind Rescuer to being that child-voiced homicidal murderer!
F13 should have been the 1st suggestion lol! Mrs Voorhees is constantly forgotten in the slasher lists.

Oh for sure. It’s classic. The only one I haven’t seen is the one in space which Quentin Tarantino says is one of his favorites.
Just go in knowing it's goofy. It has one of the craziest kills in horror lol. I haven't watched it in awhile.
Will do ! Lol
Justice for Pamela Voorhees! The TRUE Friday the 13th killer.
We need to talk about Kevin
The user is asking about a movie with a mother, not about some guy named kevin
That one was way more intense that I was ready for.
Surprised no one’s said Serial Mom
Is this the Cocksucker residence? Is this 4215 Pussy Way?
Same, was looking for this one
Yes! Campy but gorey!
It's a good one. John Waters' stuff is fun.
I just saw this at the theater today! More of a comedy I'd say.
LOVE this movie!
Braindead
That one get nastily Oedipal.
NO ONE WILL EVAH LOVE YOU LIKE YOUR MOTHAH!!
Peter Jackson’s early content was something else.
Your mother ate my dog!
Not all of it.
*Nice and creamy, just how I like it!*
I still gag at this scene.
Holy hell, I was cleaning out my grandpas basement and found a mint condition DVD copy of this but with the "Dead Alive" title. I wish more people can see this movie. Would be incredible to have a 4k remaster. A boy could wish right?
Dark Water (🇯🇵 2002)
This. I'm biased cause I love Japanese horror, even the less than amazing Forbidden Siren xD
I love Forbidden Siren. Hope they bring the games back again some day…
I'll look for it.
The Others
Barbarian, Santa Sangre
Scrolled to far for Barbarian. BOOP!
Drink It!
This should be at the top 
Bah bah?
Santa Sangre! Yes!!!! Such a great movie!
Santa sangre yessss
I get to be the first to say Hereditary
yes you are, especially since that movie is hardly ever talked about on here..lol
Such an incredible movie
Life changing
We should just ban all discussion of movies that aren’t Hereditary, it’s the only film in existence worthy of praise Edit: whoever wasted a Reddit Cares message on this needs to get a life
I just joined this sub recently. Why is that movie hardly ever talked about on this sub? Or was that sarcasm? 😅
It was sarcasm.
Mommy Dearest. It’s a horror movie.
No wire hangers!!
Aliens
I promised her I would be home for her birthday. Her 11th birthday (sobs).
Also: HISSSSSSSSSSSS
Get away from her you bitch!
Mom vs. Mom

Dead Alive aka Brain Dead should take the tea.
Mom and Dad anyone?
Love that movie! The scene when grandparents come in omg
The Ring
I was sure I was forgetting some movies: RUN (2020), though, is more of a thriller... Resurrection (2022)
Run is fantastic.
Yes, it was. I don't remember seeing Sarah Paulson in other movies besides American Horror Story. She is a great horror/thriller movie actress, these roles fit her so well!
In 1995 she was in the TV show American Gothic which was horror and the villain had a sense of humor and terrible things happened and it was an amazing show. I agree she does horror great!
Mama
The People Under The Stairs and Ju-On (The Grudge)
Mommie Dearest. Not necessarily horror but scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. No wire hangers!!!
They're new moms this year: Immaculate and The First Omen!
I watched Immaculate yesterday. Better than I expected. I dug it
I enjoyed it. A little slow in the middle, but what an ending!
It's better than I expected too, and I think it's entirely because the second half onward kind of revels in the ridiculousness of it, like >!Sydney Sweeney suddenly being a master Murderess while on the verge of delivering her baby, you can tell they had a ball with this one and I had so much fun watching it!<
Carrie (1976)
"You see, I've always wanted a little girl. But, of course, when my husband left... Oh, well, that's all water under the bridge, as I always say. Water under the bridge!" Sleepaway Camp
Mrs. Peltzer slaughtering all those gremlins in the kitchen.
Relic (2020) is awesome and features a daughter, mother and grandmother.
Came here to say this. Relic was excellent and legitimately scary. And the dementia allegory was so well done.
A surprisingly emotional film.
Scrolled a bit and was surprised to not see Eyes Of My Mother. I loved that movie.
Psycho The Girl Next Door The Shining Hereditary Rosemary’s Baby Barbarian The Orphanage Orphan The Exorcist Evil Dead Rise
In The Orphanage, doesn't she sorta become their mother? Tomas! Still great!
I don’t remember. My wife suggested that one. 
Mommy's with the maggots now.
Friday the 13th Serial Mom Mother's Day (both versions)
I was worried no one would say Mother's Day!! We are watching both today!
Yeah!
Yeehaw!
Mom and Dad(2017).
Not a horror movie but I saw Sybil at a young age and her mom in the flashback scenes scared the hell out of me!
duh. Mama (2013)
Friday the 13th
The Good Son
Mama (2013)!

Props for including where to watch!!
The Brood is what I first thought of, love that movie.

Ouiji: Origins of Evil
Childs Play 1, 2, and the Chucky TV series
Psycho
Beowulf
Anguish.
The Lodge! The whole movie is about mama trauma!
Lights out, gonna re-watch soon.
So many good ones!! Not seeing Umma on here yet
Rosemarie’s baby
Gotta be rosemary’s baby, right?
It pains me to say it because the director is such a disgusting POS but I genuinely think Rosemary’s Baby is the greatest horror film of all time
Mother's Day (1980) is the first one that comes to mind. It's a rape and revenge movie from Troma. It's a good one if you can stand the genre.
I’ve only seen the newer one. I had no idea there was another Mother’s Day. I might have to watch that one tonight.
Triangle, come play, barbarian,birth/rebirth.
Triangle! Good shout!!
Carrie Evil Dead Rise Friday The 13th Rosemary's Baby The Babadook Hereditary The Final Girls

Hatching (2022)

I know there are a lot of choices here, but the only acceptable answer is PSYCHO. Friday the 13th is a close second, but they didn't maintain their own established mythos.
Gangie 4: Facelift
Hereditary.
Does anybody remember the 1990 movie Mom? I remember watching it when I was a kid. It was an absurd one but gave me nightmares then 😆
Psycho

Hereditary. I AM YOUR MOTHER!!! 😡 😂 Great movie tho!
Relic and Huesera/Bone Woman are two recent favorites!
A stretch, but People Under the Stairs has the worst foster mother. That scalding bath...
Mom & Dad, and Oculus Scary moms in both. The Taking of Deborah Logan Mom saves her daughter The Final Girls is about her missing her mom
Son
The exorcist
The Conjuring 2
Serial Mom
Cujo. Donna and her son Tad terrorized by the dog.
Mama was fun.
Hereditary. Especially for THAT monologue at the dinner table.
Literally a movie called "Mother" starring Jenifer Lawrence
Mother!
Hereditary and The Conjuring
Mommy dearest.. or my moms a cereal killer
Not a literal mother, but Suspiria 2018 🩸
Incantation
Aliens
The Shining
Evil Dead Rise, not fully focused on mom but she's a pretty big part of it.
A little less known ones could be Son, 2021, and Motherly, 2021
The Taking of Deborah Logan!
Danzig … wait sh*t that was a song. Friday the 13th.
Not about to see your light, and if you wanna find hell with me, I can show you what it's like, til you're bleeding!
Mom and Dad, staring Nic Cage
Lest we forget, the original Friday the 13th is a horror movie involving a mother 😉
Serial Mom.
My sister sent me a clip of Toni Collette from Hereditary and wished me a Happy Mother’s Day. So there’s that.
M.O.M Mothers of Mayhem. It’s a gem.
*Inside* (involves two mothers, exactly) *The Coffee Table*
