Not only does the film seem to be in on its own joke, but the campiness and violence are both way over the top. If the premise sounds a little goofy, that's because it is. The teens, while resourceful, prove no match for the bulletproof robots or their high-tech weaponry. What ensues is an evening of head explosions, gunfire, and people being burned alive.
This doesn't bode well for a group of eight teens who've chosen tonight to have a party in the mall. However, when lightning strikes the wrong spot and wreaks havoc on the security system, the robots go haywire and start killing everyone they come across. When Park Plaza Mall gets a state-of-the-art security system that includes robots designed to patrol the mall after-hours with tasers, tranquilizer darts, and, for some reason, laser guns, the owners think they've hit the jackpot. Meanwhile, a 2019 remake throws Billy out of the equation altogether in favor of a misogynist cult. He was then locked in an attic where, uh, some upsetting stuff went down with his mom, resulting in Billy's sister/daughter, Agnes. The 2006 version explains that Billy was a child who saw his mother and her lover kill his father. Regardless, adult Billy can't seem to shake it, and it sends him on a murder spree, resulting in some truly gnarly deaths.Īlthough the filmmakers tried to keep the killer's origin vague, the movie's popularity propelled it to get two remakes. However, it becomes obvious that something awful happened between Billy and Agnes, something that may have happened when Agnes was a baby. The phone calls are unclear, interspersed with incredibly obscene threats of sexual violence against the sorority sisters.
As the girls listen, he carries out scary conversations with himself that involve a person named Billy (presumably him), a girl named Agnes, and their parents. When the killer calls, his phone etiquette is less than charming.
