True Blood actress Deborah Ann Woll has joined the cast of Darren Lynn Bousman's latest horror film Mother's Day.

The project, a remake of the 1980 cult favourite, is about three female friends who encounter two brothers trying to impress their unhinged mother by going on a murderous rampage.

The new version expands the psychotic family to include a daughter (Woll). The story finds them returning to their old home to terrorise new residents, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Twisted Pictures (the Saw series), Brett Ratner's Rat Entertainment and LightTower Entertainment are steering the remake, which is being eyed for release next Mother's Day.
