The dull feature is best served to these young minds, while everyone else should only watch the movie fully riffed to get the most out of the viewing experience.

| Original Score: C | Mar 9, 2025

Full of endearingly oafish makeup, sets, and dialogue.

| Original Score: C | Nov 29, 2022

Its status as one of the strangest films ever made about Father Christmas has given it a degree of cult status. Without that, it wouldn't have a snowball's chance of still being watched today.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 17, 2020

For those with a taste for bad movies, especially unintentionally hilarious ones that take themselves completely seriously, you can't do much better than this.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Aug 6, 2019

Just how incompetent is this picture? Its ineptitude applies even to the opening credits, which lists a "custume" designer.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 29, 2018

There's no warmth to the movie, no good cheer or happiness, and (at risk of bathing in bathos), ne'er a hint of what makes the season special.

| Dec 10, 2016

This is, without exaggeration, one of the single worst films ever made, which hasn't prevented it from becoming a cult classic.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Dec 3, 2012

A terrible product of people who wanted to appeal to kids but likely never met one in their lives...

[A] hilariously bad stab at sci-fi.

Who knew this would be the pinnacle of Pia Zadora's career?

Adults may find it obvious and as square-cut as cheese. But let's face it. From now till you-know-when, the youngsters are all that matter.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 9, 2005

Better than 'Mars Needs Women', but worse than 'Teenagers from Outer Space' . . .

White Christmas on a red planet, and not as bad as some people insist.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 16, 2004

shot in that hopeless, bad filmmaking style ... with the delayed, artificial rhythm of a trans-Atlantic phone call

Low expectations met.

I can't help it I love it!

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 21, 2003

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.
