A college girl introduces her mother to her girlfriend... who happens to be a vampire. In fact, the two girls are on the run from a coven of all-female “nightwalkers” who are forcing the vampire to turn her lover into one of them so they will have more food.

Not nearly the subversive deconstruction that Lifetime probably hoped for when they hired Franco in the first place.June 17, 2016
It's high camp, and whoever at the network green-lit it -- assuming, of course, they were in on the joke -- is brilliant.June 15, 2016
The movie is much ado about nothing, feeling desperately thin and pointless. At first promising campy fun, it's soon simply mystifying, then misguided, gross and finally tiresome in its look-at-me-ness.June 20, 2016
It's a bold choice to devote a solid minute of the running time to the famed "Macbeth" monologue including the line, "a tale told by an idiot full of sound and fury signifying nothing." Bold, and like the rest of the movie, a little too self-aware.August 15, 2016
Blood, sexual violence in campy TV horror remake.June 16, 2016
Remake or not, James Franco writing and producing a Lifetime movie is a must-see part of his art oeuvre, but Mother, May I Sleep With Danger? is actually legitimately good when it could have coasted on camp.June 17, 2016
Mother, May I Sleep with Danger? miraculously doesn't buckle under the self-serious weight of its myriad references.June 20, 2016
Mother's great feat is that it's a movie that manages to be both exploitative and progressive.June 20, 2016
While Mother May I Sleep with Danger? aims to be both a remake and a parody it fails on both counts.
