This film has been ridiculed by every UHF movie host out there, and rightfully so.
There is a point of awfulness in a movie where it recycles itself into comedy gold. Few movies have done this successfully, but this is one of them. This one and Plan 9 from Outer Space.
The plot is that Martians have sucked all the fun out of their society, so their solution is to kidnap Santa Claus and make him to the Santa thing for Martian children. It's as awful and cornball as all those other Christmas specials we've seen over the years, but without the silly animation.
Also, it has a 10 year old Pia Zadora before she got into making "serious" movies.
