The plot of Santa conquers the Martians is simple: The Martians kidnap Santa because there is nobody on Mars to give their children presents.

The 1964 science fiction film Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is frequently included on lists of the worst films ever made. It was featured in an episode of the 1986 syndicated series, the Canned Film Festival, and is usually included in the Internet Movie Database’s “lowest 100” list.

We would recommend that if you are curious and want to watch this movie, rather watch the Mystery Science Theatre 3000 version which is a lot funnier than the original and makes it more watchable; otherwise just watch the highlight reel for the movie.
