I really enjoyed it, but I was a little confused as to why the footage from "Dawn of the Dead" looked like it was lifted from a broken VHS tape. Still, that's a very tiny nitpick on what was otherwise a very intriguing documentary. I'd like to see a whole doc just on dead malls, too!
An interesting documentary, especially the part where the mall developer visits a Cabella's and actually thinks that the stuffed dead animals will fit his concept of an environmentally green mall.
