Coconutdaddy Podcast Pick of the Week: Hoot'n and Holler'n Take on Chopping Mall

-

 If you're looking for the perfect blend of horror, humor, and pure 1980s B-movie madness, this week's Coconutdaddy Podcast Pick is the Hoot'n and Holler'n episode "We Survived Chopping Mall."

Few cult horror films capture the outrageous spirit of the 1980s quite like Chopping Mall (1986). The film takes a simple premise and turns it into a fan-favorite horror classic: a group of young people become trapped overnight in a shopping mall where high-tech security robots suddenly decide that customer service includes lethal force.

Directed by Jim Wynorski and produced by Roger Corman, Chopping Mall delivers everything fans of cult horror crave: laser blasts, killer robots, memorable practical effects, cheesy one-liners, and a healthy dose of mall nostalgia. Despite its title, there isn't much actual chopping, but what the film lacks in accuracy, it more than makes up for in entertainment value.

The Hoot'n and Holler'n crew dives into the film's blend of sci-fi and horror, celebrating its over-the-top kills, lovable cast, and the kind of low-budget creativity that helped make it a late-night cable television favorite. Like many cult classics, Chopping Mall wasn't a major hit upon release, but over the years it has developed a devoted following among horror enthusiasts who appreciate its quirky charm and nonstop fun.

What makes Chopping Mall endure is that it never pretends to be anything more than a good time. The movie embraces its ridiculous premise with enthusiasm, delivering a fast-paced adventure that remains endlessly rewatchable. For fans of robot mayhem, shopping mall nostalgia, and classic horror-comedy thrills, it's a must-watch.

So grab some popcorn, avoid the food court after dark, and join Hoot'n and Holler'n as they revisit one of the most entertaining cult horror films of the VHS era.
