Plot hole: In the whole film, between the robots and the teens an incredible amount of damage is done to the shopping centre, including smoke, fires and explosions. These things would all easily trigger fire alarms and a sprinkler system...yet the fire alarms never go off.

Ferdy: Look, I'm sorry if I made you angry, Linda.
Linda: It's not you, Ferdy. I'm just not used to be chased around a mall in the middle of the night by killer robots.
Trivia: Towards the end of the film, Allison hides from the last remaining Protector Robot by hiding in a pet shop. The name of the shop is "Roger's Little Shop of Pets," which is a reference to "The Little Shop of Horrors," a film directed by Roger Corman, husband of Julie Corman who produced this film.
