Black Friday is over and Cyber Monday is in full gear, and SCREAMBOX is celebrating with Jim Wynorski‘s 1986 horror classic Chopping Mall, currently streaming on the Bloody Disgusting-powered service.
Chopping Mall is a cult slasher featuring Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator, You’re Next) that kicks off when a bad thunderstorm causes a direct lightning strike, putting security robots on the fritz and making them a deadly problem for the group of eight mall employees who have decided to stay after hours to party and have sex.
The film is currently celebrating 37 years of staying power. Zachary Paul wrote about its anniversary five years ago.

“Chopping Mall is effortlessly entertaining. It’s easy to see why this became a cult hit over the decades,” Meagan previously wrote. “The cast is clearly having a blast, the killer robot angle feels fresh, and the mall setting (it was filmed after hours in Sherman Oaks Galleria) is an ‘80s time capsule- Glendale, California-based store Licorice Pizza was sold to Musicland Group the same year Chopping Mall was released, so its existence is immortalized here in a small way.”
There’s no shortage of amusement from this happy, comfort food cult classic. Watch it HERE.
