The Guilt Trip, a story about a man on an 8-day roadtrip with his mother, could easily be re-cut as a horror film. But they chose to go the comedy direction. Take a look at the first trailer, from Yahoo! Movies:

Seth Rogen (Superbad) stars as Andy Brewster, an inventor attempting to sell his latest product. He invites his mother, played by Barbra Streisand (Meet the Fockers), along to try to reconnect her with a lost love.

Adam Scott, Yvonne Strahovski, Colin Hanks, Brett Cullen, Casey Wilson, and Dani Pudi also star. Dan Fogelman wrote the script, with Anne Fletcher directing.

The Guilt Trip will premiere December 25. Check out this The Guilt Trip clip to see Andy ask his mom to come with him on the trip.
