Santa Claus Conquers The Martians (1964) on Tubi

This is what my brothers and I consider the weirdest Christmas movie of all time.

It's has some three stooges comedy, children working longing to work the factory, and a delightfully festive and unhinged plot, and is a scathing review of what the 1960's thought the future could be.

P.S. There's also a Rifftrax version which I have not seen.

P.P.S the movie is in the public domain!

It's such a weird movie, but so are all the Christmas movies from around this time. This one really is the Christmas equivalent of Manos: Hands of Fate.
