Episode 42 - Chopping Mall
1986’s Chopping Mall tells a story as old as time: three high-tech security robots turn into maniacal killing machines and start murdering the teenage employees of a shopping mall after dark. Also: someone skateboards inside the mall.
Kevin and Mike are joined by Gary Mitchel (of the horror podcast A Podcask of Amontillado) and Shaun Rosado (of PopCycled Baubles) to discuss the film, its place within the firmament of 80s horror, its misleading VHS cover art, and scary movies in general. I love the smell of commerce in the morning!
