Santa Claus (1959)

Cult Classic !!!

 

YES! I'll be watching this sometime in the next week along with Santa Clause Conquers The Martians.

 

Man, I miss Sean.

 

You can watch the MST3k version here:

 

There's now a new Special Edition DVD and Blu-Ray (!) of this movie that includes a ton of bonus features including 3 follow-up short films, a commentary track, a documentary, and more.

Here's a link to the Amazon listing for the Blu-Ray (the DVD edition also linked on the page)

Oh, and here's a review of the three follow-up shorts. They're just as weird as the Santa Claus movie (maybe weirder):

There are those that feel that Walt Disney studied SANTA CLAUS and incorporated elements into his extravaganza BABES IN TOYLAND!

 

The VCI DVD/Blu-Ray has a restored print the tlooks absolutely stunningand it's in the original widescreen aspect ratio). I never knew the movie could look so good. It blows away the previous video releases.

 

It's available for streaming on Netflix. They used to have the MST3K version.

 

some negative reviews on Amazon

 

Bumpin' it up for the season

 

Anyone watchin' it this year ?

 

I just watched the MST3K version this morning. Then I hunted down the little DVD extra they made and watched that also.

 

Christmas week bump

 

Christmas Eve bump

 

Anyone watchin' this year ?

 

Might watch it tonight.
Depends on how much time I have after Santa Claus Conquers The Martians and some of the 60s Christmas cartoon specials.
