With an official sequel currently in the works, fans of the original Mallrats can soon revisit the classic movie with a new home video release from Arrow Video. Coming with tons of bonuses and excellent artwork, the limited edition Blu-ray or DVD would make an excellent collectible for Kevin Smith fans. We might have seen many other films from Smith to arrive in the years since, but for many longtime View Askew fans, Mallrats remains a particular favorite.
