Chopping 'Chopping Mall' (2016)
*** (out of 4)
Nice interview with CHOPPING MALL editor Leslie Rosenthal, which also features comments from director Jim Wynorski and co-writer Steve Mitchell. The main focus of this eight-minute featurette is the editing of the picture with the big moment being in regards to the now famous blowing off of the head. Rosenthal talks about why and how these effect came to be and she also tells other nice stories about the production. She mentions that the director was rarely in the editing room so she talks about visiting the set to try and get an idea of what the film should be like. Fans of the film will certainly enjoy this featurette even though there's certainly nothing ground-breaking here. Another great highlight has Wynorski talking about Roger Corman's reaction to the dailies.
