[@kinnikuchu]

I found this movie in a 99 cents store :P

[@TwilightPrincess68]

Girl:"I see a martian!" Boy:"Who are you?" Martian:"We're from Mars."

[@JosephASobora]

Got this crazy Christmas film on DVD for 99 cents in 2007! But I always remember watching this on "MST3K"!

[@only257]

Joseph A. Sobora same here👻

[@boba_rhett]

Hah! Seems like the perfect fit to MST3K

[@only257]

BobaRhett13 saw this film on the mst3k version laughing so hard love this awful film saw it once on the archive website fell asleep saw the rifftrax and cinematic to attic versions they were hiliarous not as good as the mst3k version😊

[@TheBcoolGuy]

For a dollar?

[@borrisg4972]

'Santa Clause pwns the Internet' I'll buy that for a Dollar!

[@sams1170]

+Borris G (Totally Goatally) Nice :)

[@only257]

Borris G lol saw this film on mst3k laughing so hard seen the mst3k version so many times and the uncut version on the archive website just saw this film last year in HD on KZbin still a awful film👻

[@mikesilva3868]

@@sams1170 worst movie ever made I slept though the uncut version of this movie the mst3k episode was the funniest cinematic titanic and rifftrax versions were hiliarous in my opinion 😊

[@isnotformemyfaultandsomethinge]

would lov a santa clause pwns the internet man

[@Scotttjt]

Santa Clause Pwns the Internet... FUND IT!!!

[@mkb7001]

+Scotttjt I'd pay for that

[@iCommentify1]

It'd feature dramatic montages of KZbin comments! We all know we love KZbin comments!

[@only257]

Scotttjt Santa Claus 1959 funniest worst movie ever made loved the mst3k episodes still the funniest episode and the mst3k episode of this movie is still the funniest as well 📼

[@maxkennedy7430]

Sees Giant threatening Robot picking up one of his workers. Response: “You’re The Biggest Toy I’ve ever seen!”

[@SEGPED]

2:37 The expression on Santa's face is hilarious.

[@Donscottmusic]

Any movie with a villain that looks like Frank Zappa can't be ALL THAT BAD! lol

[@mikesilva3868]

It is unwatchable without mst3k and rifftrax 😊

[@captainmarvel63]

Santa conquers the martians with joy! Hooray! I like that. Love the scene where the actor playing the Martian dad clearly blows his lines. They use the scene anyway. No re-take, apparently. You don't get cheaper than that. Of course, now that I've watched Cinemassacre's video that doggone theme song is gonna be running through my head all day long. Thanks, Cinemassacre! Saw the DVD included with a NOVELIZATION at a used book store a few years ago. Must be a great read!

[@mikesilva3868]

What do you call a bunch of chess players bragging about their games in a hotel lobby? Chess nuts boasting in an open foyer!😂

[@Edscratch23469]

We need more nostalgia nerd

[@Focapolina]

I do agree but that is one of the best Santa Claus ever portrait in a movie

[@LukieLuke5]

They have it on Netflix.

[@NodDisciple1]

2:55 Or find it here for free on youtube!

[@Dethneko]

Oh my god, I actually have this move.

[@only257]

Dethneko really😂

[@DJX187]

i was never a fan of the Joel era of Mystery Science Theater.... but this one along with "Manos":the hands of fate were probably his absolute best.... if you like MST3K and have never seen this episode, its definatly a must see.

[@mikesilva3868]

One of the funniest episodes of mst3k 😎

[@VForceWave]

A dollar? On KZbin, it's $1.99! Can you believe that? The price is outrageous!

[@6zzzzzz6zzzzzz6]

Good review , but I'm surprised you didn't mention it also starred Pia Zadora at around 8 years old.

[@oyonan]

I absolutely LOVE this movie! It's been a must for me at xmas since 97! If only it would be restored!

[@cha5]

"Hooray For Santa Claus!" I've always wondered what a Christmas special done by Ed Wood would look like.

[@sonia1234321]

"well dont you think that was funny?" "yes, santa" ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!

[@BlazeTheMovieFan]

This movie is funny alright but for all the wrong reasons.

[@mikesilva3868]

Don't watch it uncut its unwatchable 😂

[@KermisVoyager1997]

I fucking love that movie. It's the funniest shit imaginable. It's one of those classic shitty movies with a charm. People don't make these like this anymore and it's really sad.

[@mikesilva3868]

Its unwatchable without mst3k 😃

[@BradMiltonic]

I love you for posting this. I love this movie so much! Merry Christmas! P.S. Finding this movie on DVD is like finding a spec of space dust on a comet's tail.

[@RisingBeast00]

I lol'd at "Santa Clause pwns The Internet". I'd love for that to happen.

[@noahmezan2073]

I have that movie, and it did indeed cost a dollar

[@only257]

Noah Mezan cool🤖

[@Seanatonin]

own it and it is so bad, it's good

[@only257]

Sean Bateman is it the mst3k version😊

[@jmanmoonwalk]

A classic. Enjoy watching this very year around Christmas time. Have this on VHS.

[@davidmitchell4628]

I'm back from the future, and the Nerd still hasn't started filming of Santa Claus Dominates the Universe! :(

[@bazel7tt719]

what about (santa's workshop) from a MST3K episode? that one is the funniest santa movie i,ve see. Its a swedish movie i believe.

[@Th1rt3eNoriginals]

you must be referring to "Santa Claus" the movie from episode 521. It's the K. Gordon Murray cult classic. It's Mexican. Unless your talking about "Jack Frost" the movie in episode 813. That one was a Russian Finland co-production and featured various Scandinavian fairy tale characters, no Santa or workshop, but Jack Frost kind of looks like Santa. The only other thing you might be talking about is the Rifftrax "Santa's Village of Madness". That one dose have lots of santa's workshop in it, as well as Puss In Boots and the memorable and beloved children's character The Angry Wolf With An Ulcer. There is also a brief cameo from the Ice Cream Bunny who was featured in the Rifftrax of "Santa Claus and the Ice Cream Bunny". Both those "movies" are American.

[@gtamaniak2145]

Th1rt3eNoriginals yeah that movie is really creepy+one of the robots mentioned the word "nightmare fuel" and it became a meme itself

[@only257]

gtamaniak2145 saw Santa Claus from 1959 on the archive website so many times and the mst3k version so many times it's the funniest movie ever made and funniest mst3k episode as well the riffing was excellent just saw the rifftrax live version though it was Hiliarous😊

[@MichaelEdwardsVA]

1:28 BAAA LOL i love the way that he says that

[@Bemine4fun]

This can be found on Sci-Fi compilations at any video store. And we can't forget that this is Pia Zadora's first movie. She is the child female Martian.

[@Jarnor23]

Pills for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? Ho Ho Ho, who do we look like, Judy Garland?

[@j60centj]

Ahhh 60's Sci-Fi. Good times, good times.

[@sandro108]

In the starting credits:"Custumes"lol! Priceless!!! :)

[@njduran]

I remember this being on at 3 in the morning. It was... cool...

[@95joel]

Got to see this one! Merry Christmas BTW! :)

[@nerdsman567]

Merry Christmas 2017 everyone! 🎅🎄🎁

[@EdSigma]

I recently discovered that the Sci-fi society I'm part of at my Uni actually once arranged a proper screening of this at the Union Cinema! Man, that would have been a night to remember! Great review, this is undoubtedly the most trippy festive film ever! And yes, you can actually get the DVD of this for about a quid!

[@ryanporter4689]

I honestly can't believe that James Gunn intentionally reference this movie In The Guardians of the Galaxy holiday special where Kevin Bacon is watching it on TV in his house

[@MAZZ0Murder]

Funny, I just saw a clip of this. Didn't realize you made a review of it

[@KikBlava]

Hey James, I just seen your new video and it was freaking awesome! The best one you have done EVER! Review the Virtual Boy next!

[@legeartis83]

"SANTA PWNS THE INTERNET!!!!" godlike line!

[@AndrewAmbrose]

It's now been 15 years and 1 day since this was posted 😄

[@aleprechaun]

That Santa has to have one of the creepiest laughs I've ever heard.

[@linky202]

"Do you think this video by the cinemassacre was funny?" "yeyas santa"

[@ressmox]

hahaha from tickle ray the the end i was laughing my ass off

[@zacharysfm]

I saw this movie I just realized

[@zooeyhall]

I actually saw this movie in the theater when it came out back in 1964, when I was seven. I remember thinking, even as young as I was, that "this is ridiculous!".

[@RomanLettore]

"Don't you think that was funny?" "Yes santa." lol

[@HitomiCOD2]

Merry Xmas James^^

[@SoftBank47]

And now a quote from the Cinematic Titanic riff on this movie: "It's official, they've made me hate fun."

[@RatedCrazyFilm]

i knew you would do christmas movie review thanxs a bunch nerd ^.^

[@BigKCunningham]

"Kidnaped" at 2:06. Oh fucking joy of joys

[@PatricianVet]

Good one, James...This flick looks fantastic, I have to see it!

[@obliven1993]

merry chritmas james

[@darkwalker19]

YAY the second part of the Christmas episode is up

[@hiair]

"I'd Buy That For A Dollar!"

[@cameronmonaghan6883]

Come back after the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special

[@KahlessTheUnforgettable]

“KIDNAPED” instead of “kidnapped” on the newspaper headline 😂

[@carlosperezvidal]

the opening title sequense of santa conquers the martians looks ike that captain spaulding commercial

[@briantanner5478]

So far what I'm getting out of viewing these old videos is that James coined the phrases "RE:View" and "Best of the Worst" before RLM did.

[@VGgameplay]

Prince: This was shown TODAY on some digi channel in the UK lol.

[@ealing456]

"don't you think that was funny ? yes santa..." poor kids lol

[@rhondaanthonytanner]

[@sfighter991]

I also watched this movie yesterday along with "Santa Claus", I can safely say this is the campiest Christmas movie ever made. Your right James, we more oddball Santa Claus movies, like "Santa Clause vs. The Easter Bunny", "Santa Claus in the 23rd Century", "Santa Claus vs. Easter Bunny vs. Godzilla vs. Frankenstein vs. Whatever", or "Santa Claus in New York".

[@AGentertainmentofficial]

James, this is so ironic you posted this. My girlfriend just got this at a gag gift when we had her Christmas Party last week. Apparently her friend bought it at Target for $1.00. We still need to watch it :)

[@LadyMiaow]

"Santa Pwns The Internet". Didn't expect that one.

[@kylep120]

I got a Mystery Science theater DVD that features this movie. I remember in the late 90's that they were talking about remaking it staring James Doohan (Scotty from Star Trek)in the role of Santa Claus. I guess it never greenlighted. I can't imagine why lol.

[@SebasthianThorn]

I watched this on TV a few years ago. It's hilarious!

[@D8alusPrime]

Pretty damn strange. Good video. But I want pt 2 of the other one now damn it! I can't wait!

[@sionten]

1:09 the guys being a spazz

[@dechha1981]

In the comentary of the episode of South Park where Towlie is a guest on Oprah, they were complaining about their on mistake, they called this kind of thing "Putting a hat on top of a hat". They had Oprah's minje and ass talking, but they also had Towelie, so that's TWO wierd things instead of one wierd thing.

[@72planet72]

damn, this video must get featured on youtube's featured videos!

[@soulhunger1]

I couldn't imagine having to watch this without the help of humorous MST3K commentary.

[@Fuckaue]

Santa Claus kills the Marvel Universe

[@LeeARM]

my grandma got me this for xmas one year. i probably threw it out and even as an 8 year kid i could only stand to watch about a quarter of it

[@siriushearts]

i remember seeing this movie as a kid, no joke. thx for bringing back funny memories.

[@chincherrinas]

this is madness.... THIS IS SANTA!

[@NightmareLyra]

Santa PWNS the Internett sounds awesome :P

[@NodDisciple1]

@SaxophoneOfTime MST3K version, Cinematic Titanic version, or just the regular film? :?

[@KevinLounsberry]

LOL I love the ending but dude, AVGN, you totaly need to make a "Santa Pwns the Internet"

[@not_riley]

'what kind of drugs were they taking?' if you EVER go on tv working for the news or something...i'm tuning in every day.

[@neilperrin6409]

I remember this on Mystery Science Theater, does anyone else?

[@BagofSunshine1001]

this was on tv the other day

[@SuperSquishface]

YES

[@masteruni84]

it's just christmas eve here too. you're ahead of us if you're in the UK so it'll be christmas there a few hours b4 it is here :)

[@KeNNeYg22]

" Well if you want to see the weirdest Christmas Movie ever. Go to your local store you might find it on DVD... for a dollar " Lol haha

[@alabzam]

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is the most random christmas film ive heard of!

[@phatclimber27]

:O *runs out the door to get to the nearest oxfam shop to buy....*

[@CorbinVHS]

The MST3K episode of this one was classic. Watch it every year

[@TheMaskedNerd]

I got this on DVD last Christmass! ^-^ Way to go Mr. Rolfe!

[@InnuendOwO]

"Don't you think that was funny?" (Said as though they would be beaten if they didn't agree) "...Yes, Santa... :(" I lold hard at that part.

[@felphero]

"Santa Claus annihilates human kind" would be cool too!

[@YanDaMan263]

LOL I want to watch this now!

[@ffejgib]

The aliens will always & forever be related to Mr. Kazoo from The Flintstones

[@teknomaker18]

The laughing at 2:19 scares me deeply.

[@Spudgonzo]

this sounds like one of those movies that would be on mystery science theater 3000

[@mikenike123454]

Santa needs an intergalactic lazer gun. That would actually make this movie worth watching!

[@yoshiscute]

nice
