Factual error: When the first robot is trapped in the lift, the teenagers shoot the propane tanks on top of the lift in order to get them to catch fire and explode, killing the robot. However the teens are firing pistols or shotguns, and these do not contain incendiary ammunition, which is what is required to make the propane to catch fire.

9.5/10.Love this movie.True it's a little cheesy but fun.I found the biggest problem being is these robots having lethal lasers when they should come with stun ones instead. After all, anyone hurt or killed by these robots relatives could sue the mall owners. The atmosphere was chilling as the group of 20 somethings tried their best to survive a night against three run amok robots. Just good fun.
Trivia: Paul Bartel and Mary Woronov play Paul and Mary Bland in this film. These are the characters they played in the film "Eating Raoul."
