Movie Scene Of Cars Driving Through Illinois Shopping Mall

I remember watching the "Blues Brothers" movie for the very first time with my dad. It immediately became one of my favorite movies. One of the best scenes is the police chase through a shopping mall.

How fun would that be to drive inside an abandoned mall?

Abandoned Shopping Mall In Illinois

The Charlestowne Mall in St. Charles is one of the unfortunate casualties of online shopping. It's left empty like many malls across the United States.

WARNING: Under no circumstances should you enter this property. By doing so you risk bodily harm and/or prosecution for trespassing on private property.

Take a good look at the pictures and video of this place because you're not going to believe what happened inside.

A film crew got access to the abandoned Charlestown Mall in St. Charles and they brought in a couple of sports cars to race around. It's pretty darn cool.

Car Commercial Filmed Inside Abandoned Illinois 

According to dailyherald.com,

"It was a scene many dream of: race cars and free rein inside an abandoned mall."

 

"Carpet flew and floor tiles were adorned with tire tracks as three members of Toyota's Gazoo Racing team tore through Charlestowne Mall in St. Charles to show off the car company's new GR Supra."

"Their stunts through the mall are featured in a four-minute commercial dubbed "The Focus Group."

It's not the "Fast and Furious" but I definitely believe that it could be Vin Diesel approved.
