Synopsis
Where shopping costs you an arm and a leg!
A group of teenagers that work at the mall all get together for a late night party in one of the stores. When the mall goes on lock down before they can get out, the robot security system activates after a malfunction and goes on a killing spree. One by one the three bots try to rid the mall of the “intruders.” The only weapons the kids can use are the supplies in other stores, or if they can make it till morning when the mall opens back up.

Review by Branson Reese 3
My review of this movie is that during the opening credits a pizza man in a filthy shirt shouted “c’mon you breakin a-my heart!” and lit a cigarette in his own restaurant so I rushed to letterboxd to give it four stars. There’s a ton of movie left I’ll report back in later.

the robots saying "thank you, have a nice day" after every kill is peak comedy

Review by Tony the Terror ★★★★½ 14
Instead of binging on “aerobics will kill you” movies, I decided to revisit another completely insane 80’s horror flick that’s pretty much Short Circuiton crack.
Killer robots in the mall. Barbara Crampton. Florsheim Galleria. Scott from Friday the 13th part 2. Radio Shack. Cigarette machines. Animated laser beams. Thom McAn Shoes. Escalators. Juice kiosks. Guess Baby. Elevators with 180 degree views. Paul and Mary Bland. House of Almonds. Exploding heads. Upturned polo collars. Hallmark stores. Crimped hair. Crawling through air vents. Full scale department stores. Jim Wynorski.
The 80’s were some wonderful times. Have a nice day, indeed.

Every mall should have killbots for those refusing to wear a face mask in public.

Robot sentinels from hell—a Wynorski satire delight. Loaded with all the things I love about killer bot mayhem... and malls... and a pissed off Dick Miller mopping up who knows what with the most disgusting slop water ever is a BIG MOOD!

Review by Todd Gaines ★★½ 22
Killer robots terrorizing a group of horny yuppies in the Mall of Death. Snatch N' Grab. Short mullets are underrated. Dr. Tall Man? Mr. and Mrs. Bland without Raoul. I'm pretty sure Paul Verhoeven watched this before directing RoboCop. Sexy Lacoste shirts. Slumber Party Massacre poster. Centerfold tits. Neck choke. Preppy Alan Pinkard. When a girl can fix a car her hotness level is quadrupled. The way Mike chews gum. Really awful 80's big hair. I think the killer robots are a cross between the Gobots and Johnny 5. Nerd love. Alison's front teeth. Dick fuckin' Miller makes all films better. Leslie's nipples. The anti-smoking message in Chopping Mall is hilarious. Maybe C. Everett Coop and Jim Wynorski are friends?…

ED209 Mall⭐Cop
A bunch of teenagers decide to throw an after hours party at the mall where they work and are soon fighting for their lives thanks to the malls security robots who stupidly get struck by lightning!
A crazy 80's Futuristic Tech on the cheap vs Horny Teenagers in a fight to the death with an even crazier cameo from Paul and Mary Bland from Eating Raoul (why the hell not - more movies should have had odd crossovers) it also may have the second best movie title of all time ... maybe?
"Have A Nice Day!" -

the cut from the guy getting electricuted to a different guy saying, “smoking’s bad for your health,” is possibly the greatest edit in cinematic history!!!
