It wasn't a good movie but the wonder about the how Santa will encounter the martians kept me watching. It would have been funny it this movie was made as a new age comedy. I can see Will Ferrell playing the main martian.

One of the best! Bad Christmas movie meets bad sci fi movie. Great fun.

When I was a child going to the movies was an event in itself. The theaters were big, one-movie houses with cartoons before the movies and trailers (where they belong-hence trailers) afterwards. During the holiday season there was always a matinee on Saturday afternoon of some holiday film made by an independent company. Here in NYC we would sometimes have the actors come by before the show. Such was the case with SCCTM. All the children in the neighborhood were singing; 'S-A-N-T-A--C-L-A-U-S--Hooray for Santa Clause" that whole season.The film is of poor quality, but it is forever linked to my childhood, so it gets a good thumbs up from me. Thanks Hulu.
