"Chopping Mall" is a cult horror film released in 1986. Set in a high-tech shopping mall, the movie takes place in a seemingly normal evening where a group of young employees decides to have an after-hours party inside one of the mall stores.
Unbeknownst to them, the mall's security system has just been upgraded with a brand new line of state-of-the-art security robots. These security robots are designed to patrol the mall and keep the premises safe from intruders. However, a freak lightning storm causes a malfunction in the robots' programming, turning them into deadly killing machines.
As the partygoers enjoy themselves, they soon find themselves in a fight for survival as the rogue robots begin hunting them down, using their advanced weaponry to ruthlessly eliminate anyone in their path. Trapped inside the mall, the group must navigate the corridors and stores while evading the relentless robots, who are programmed to show no mercy.
