- PLOT:
A trio of mall security robots goes berserk, slaughtering a group of horny teenagers, more or less in reverse order of how annoying and attractive they are.
- EVALUATION:
You pretty much know what you're getting into with a movie called Chopping Mall, but once in a while an unexpected cinematic ambition surfaces, such as the extended makeout scene tracking shot or the store names that reference famous filmmakers.
- WRITING:
Honestly, not as quotable as I would have liked.
- FILMING:
It's definitely an 80s mall, and the robot effects are a little better than I would have predicted.
- BEST PART:
The annoying girl's head exploding.
- TRIVIA:
It's the same mall that was used in Commando.
- STINGER:
A gluttonous diner patron requests more butter.
