Is Santa Claus Conquers the Martians the worst film ever made? |
|
I couldn't help it, I saw a copy on DVD in Half Price Books and bought it. It's bad, but campy--and if you have had a few drinks and have some friends over I think you could really have a good time watching it.

1. Even better-MST3K's take on it! |
|
Their version of Santa Claus vs. the MArtians is one of their funniest!

7. Joe Don Baker's Mitchell was much worse than that film... |

...for sheer awfulness, MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE beats everything I've ever seen!

18. Agree. But Torgo's performance was Oscar worthy. |

A toss-up between that one, "Manos: The Hands of Fate" and "Eegah!" for the holy trinity of Really Bad Films.

11. You never saw "THE APPLE" |
|
Worst Movie of all time. Golan/Globus 1980 film with songs by George Clinton. Their film had the whole world dancing to Disco music, really bad!

12. Plan 9 From Outer Space is considered the gold standard |
|
though I think it has an amusing charm. Manos is so bad that it's even hard to watch on MST3K

13. No, it didn't have Bruce Willis or Burt Reynolds in it |
|
I actually LOVE that movie. It's hilarious. Bad movies are ones that leave you pissed off and ripped off. I refused to see it, but Freddy Got Fingered HAS to be at or very near the top.

I'll go with DC 9-11 since Santa Conquers the Martians is more realistic than that sham of an account of Shrub's "courage". Bleh.

I just got back from the store where I bought a collection of 50 sci-fi movies and that one is on it. Man it has more cheese than Hickory Farms.

17. I bought one of those Bucket-O-SciFi dvd collections |
|
50 staggeringly bad sci-fi movies including SCCtM. Watched them all! It was easily the best movie on there.

20. You clearly have not seen Orgy of the Dead |
|
Ed Wood film. Man, its not even a good titty film. It basically consists of atrocious dancing by topless girls with commentary by some cheap ass looking monsters.

24. It's certainly the worst Christmas film ever made! |
|
But I must agree with other posters..."Plan 9 from Outer Space" Is, hands down...THE worst film ever.

25. No---Manos: Hands of Fate was (no joke) |
|
Manos: Hands of Fate is not only the worst film ever shown on MST3k/ but it is quite possibly the worst film ever, I mean ever, made.
