"...on a mission from ghad."

Every chrysler I ever owned sound like that when I turned the key. My stomach always knotted a little...

The mall was vacant when they filmed the movie (all the stores were movie sets). I’m surprised it’s still around.

There are a few places in LA which have been empty for almost as long and need to go.

It looked like a dump mall back then. Belushi was hilarious.

Great web site. I recall one of these zombies I went to about 28 years ago in Miami. It was on the north end of downtown Miami. The Omni. I think it was connected to a Marriott hotel. It was supposed to be a high end mall but it never worked. It was probably built with drug money during the Tony Montana (Scarface) era.

It was really creepy because it had multiple levels it was always empty like a ghost town. I only went there a few times. It is still there.
