Sit back, grab some popcorn, and listen to the Youth Radio Movie Club’s review of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964). Our Movie Coordinator Dmitry selected this movie for the first ever Youth Radio screening after hearing a scathing review on Youtube. In the film, Santa Claus is abducted by Martians to bring joy to the martian children. Despite its flaws, the Youth Radio Movie Club gave the film a rating of 11 out of 10 for its unique badness and unintentional humor.
Fun fact: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964) was the first live action film depicting Mrs. Claus.
