Chopping Mall
A very, very "80s" 80s horror as a late night party in a shopping mall (?) goes awry when the robotic security personnel have an ED 209 moment.

As Mike-Kevin-Bill have mentioned, Mary Woronov of "Blood Theatre" fame appears in "Chopping Mall."
Also, IMDB describes the film's director as a devotee of Roger Corman.
That's a pretty good riffing resume right there!

For 80's horror, Chopping Mall is actually a decent movie. So can it actually be riffed, or should it even be riffed? What the hell me and my wife Riff just about everything. When we are watching a movie and decide it's stupid we put our Riffcaps and just start making fun of it. If anyone can Riff Chopping Mall it's our favorite band of Riffers, Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Crow T. Robot.

I love this movie.. One of the worst cross dressed movies ever made. It's as if Robocop gave birth to a litter of Johnny Fives that went psycho. And there's robots too.

Everything I've heard about Chopping Mall seems like an utter delight. It's Day of the Living Dead, but with killer security bots! The 1980s idea of Roombas with Sawblades chasing teens through an utterly 80s infested mall! The best!

This NEEDS to happen. I'm kinda surprised Rifftrax hasn't done Chopping Mall yet. It's a bad B horror movie with gore and cheesy robots in a MALL!

I'm throwing my hat into the ring for "Chopping Mall."
"Ghosthouse," "Rock 'n Roll Nightmare" and then "Chopping Mall" would feel like some kind of unrelated but essential 80's trilogy.

It's on Amazon Prime right now and watched the trailer for this movie. This would be Rifftrax gold.

I would love to see this get riffed, particularly as a VoD if it were possible to acquire the rights. Here is a trailer to show just a bit of the movie.

When I think of obscure 80s films that desperately, desperately deserve Final Justice from Bill, Mike and Kevin's hands of fate, Chopping Mall rises to the top.
Back in the early 2000s when I was in college, I'd go to Family Video or Movie Gallery in Springfield, MO and just rent terrible movies for 50 cents a pop... wretched horror films, scifi, etc. trainwrecks that were so bad they were good. We'd play Starcraft and Quake most nights (after homework and stuff) and on the nights when I was home alone OR I suckered a willing participant, we'd watch Rats, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation II, etc. etc.
I had a penchant for pain.
Chopping Mall rises to the top, though, RiffTrax team. Looking through the list, it is not a "popular" title like or recent... but it is in the top 20-30 on the list.
It has gore, it has a manical robot, it has regular bit players from other B movies, it has a nonsensical-but-nearly understandable plot... it has victims getting zapped, ran over and cut.... it has A MALL THAT HAS CHOPPING.
Bring it, guys... bring it. This movie deserves to shake hands with danger.
