The site also says that Lions Gate's August 10th release of Chopping Mall is aiming to be a 20th Anniversary Special Edition that will include interviews, a commentary track with Jim Wynorski and Steve Mitchell, and perhaps a still gallery or two.
Imagine my surprise to see this posted considering back in early April when I was corresponding with Roger Corman's personal assistant regarding the advance review of Dinocroc I decided to ask her if she had any idea why Chopping Mall had never been released on DVD since his New Concorde owns the rights. She actually did follow up on this and told me this in the next email:

I asked our post production supervisor about CHOPPING MALL, and she said that a DVD version has been out for some time... I've never seen a copy, that's for sure.
Did my inquiry finally cause someone to take notice and realize that they had never released this movie on DVD? Am I responisble for CHOPPING MALL finally getting a DVD release or is it all just an amazing coincidence. I'm voting on the latter. Still, what a coincidence.

Something else just dawned on me. How can it be a 20th anniversary edition if the movie was made in 1986. Jumping the gun there just a bit, eh?

I can't wait, love this movie to death, hope they don't change the cover art (And that goes for Happy Birthday To Me aswell).

I think this does have a DVD release in some part of the world, maybe that's what the woman ment when you asked.

Good eye. Never thought of that.

Glad to see I'm not the only one celebrating 18-20 years of CHOPPING MALL goodness.

If the cover art for "Chopping Mall" was changed, it'd be as awful as when the cover art for "Bloody Birthday" was changed for DVD.

Maybe there is a God...or a devil that loves me!

I first saw this film under it's other title "Killbots" and I still like to refer to it by that name. I'm happy as a pig in sh*t about this release, as I've been begging for it for years; just as I get some NIGHTMARISH "news" about the new "Superman" film, this certainly brightens up my day.

I can't wait to get this in all it's head-explody goodness on DVD! Great movie, should help satiate my desire for more killer robot DVDs!

NICE!!!

I love this movie, so this is great fucking news, bitches!!!!

BTW, I think it was because of you, Foy, that this is coming our way (must give credit to the man!)


...ever notice that the Killbots sound just like the Martian war machines in War of the Worlds?

...trust me, take a listen...
