Reviews for Santa Claus Conquers the Martians
White Christmas on a red planet, and not as bad as some people insist.
Like a car accident unfolding before your eyes, it's impossible to look away even if only to see how just bad it can get.
This tacky attempt to make a kidpic about the Christmas spirit seems too retarded for even kids who will watch anything silly.
shot in that hopeless, bad filmmaking style ... with the delayed, artificial rhythm of a trans-Atlantic phone call
Better than 'Mars Needs Women', but worse than 'Teenagers from Outer Space' . . .
It's all about as heartwarming as a documentary about reconstructive bowel surgery, a procedure you may need should you choose to sit through all 82 minutes...
