Looking for TV Version

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for the TV version of Chopping Mall - does anyone have it?

Here are the reported differences:

The TV network version has some minutes of aerial stock footage of Los Angeles added, as well as some more voice-over dialoge between the robot technicians and more scenes of Alison and Ferdy watching Attack Of The Crab Monsters on the TV set.

I've got lots of alternate TV versions to trade - can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

All I can remember from the TV version is that our local syndicated channel that plays B-movies on weekends aired it all the time with the "Killbots" title.

Thanks for the info - I'll keep looking at the schedule to see if it plays again.

Same as CaptainMarvelJunior, bud. Last I saw this was on the USA network back in 1993.
Sorry.

Look on the bright side, it's headed to blu-ray early 2014 :)

Thanks for your reply.

Unfortunately I doubt any of the extra fotoage will be in the blu ray release, as these TV only versions very rarely get shown anywhere else - but fingers crossed!

Cheers

There might be a bootleg copy floating around. Ioffer is a good place to look. Horror conventions also sell Bootleg copies. I am going to keep my eye open for the TV version of this film.
