Bottom 100: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is that you have come across this entry. This time I'm looking at #72 of the the Bottom 100 on IMDB (as of 4/29/17) Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.  It stars John Call, Leonard Hicks and Vincent Beck.  "The Martians kidnap Santa Claus because there is nobody on Mars to give their children presents."  This makes sense that the elfs are actually martians!  

• Oh wow...this starts amazingly!
• KID TV?  Nice
• It is the doorman from the Jeffersons!  
• Wow, that elf wasn't even hitting the "toy"
• What the hell just happened?  Did she have a fit?
• Mr. Anderson?  Neo looks different then I remember
• These are Martians?
• Forgot how to sleep?  That is like forgetting how to sweep...which someone told me once....
• Hamburger?  They have cows on Mars?
• Sleep Spray?  Nice
• Voldar seems thrilled
• Childrens bodies but adult minds?  What?
• This flick is so bad it keeps locking up on Amazon Prime ha ha
• Oh shit, this is where Michael Bay got his idea of ALWAYS putting in some random military scene
• Well that was pretty blunt, we're from Mars
• Nice, stock footage of mid air refueling, always cool
• Dropo is a good name for a band!
• Torg?  
• Whole US Space Force?  That's a thing?
• Good thing isn't -91 at the south pole
• How'd the kids get out before Kimar and company?
• Voldar doesn't like you Betty, and neither do I!
• BEST POLAR BEAR EVER!
• Wait...so Martian Manhunter is of these guys?  I will not be able to John the same way again!
• Martian Monkeys?
• Always?  You just meet Dropo how can he always make you laugh?
• They kind of made Santa a moron in this flick
• Old movies always seem to have a karate chops in fights
• Why would the workshop close?  It is all automated isn't it?
• Is that Jamie Farr?  Nope he isn't credited but sure looks like Klinger
• How would switching the bulbs change anything?  Wait, that is how you turn the machine on and off?  Weird
• Why would they meet again?  They're literally worlds apart

Well that was bad but very entertaining.  This shouldn't be on the bottom 100.  This is just hokey and old.  That isn't a bad thing.  This was kind of entertaining and I almost want to make it a holiday tradition to watch this.

Was it a good flick?  No but it is also over 50 years old, very few films hold up for 50+ years.  I can't say to go watch it but there are worst ways to waste 90ish minutes!
