If you loved The Return of Swamp Thing, try Chopping Mall

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Jim Wynorski, and they both carry the 3am cult, playful mood tags, and they sit in Horror / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Return of Swamp Thing, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Chopping Mall is

Park Plaza Mall at night, security robots beeping, lightning strikes, shoppers trapped with malfunctioning machines. Director Jim Wynorski typifies 80s sci-fi horror.
