...of course not many people here hate Mallrats (I love it, too), but that doesn't have anything to do with its "bomb" status.
I'll put it in black & white:
Cost of Mallrats: 8 mil
Opening Day Grosses: 400 000
You get the idea? I can give you a hint: the grosses didn't go up much after that.
Of course, Rats received some retribution from its video release, but by then it was alrady pegged as a Bomb.
Hope it helps,
St.Cyril.
