Santa Claus Conquers The Martians,



Christmas movies are great, even though a lot of them are cheesy, badly produced and have all manner of weird cliches. However those elements are but the charm of festive films and in some cases the worsts ones are the best ones.

A personal favourite of mine which can be found in bargain bins, pound shops, dollar stores and roaming for free on Youtube is the 1964 cult-classic Santa Claus Conquers The Martians.

INTRODUCTION


I could say off the top of my head that I setup this blog as an outlet.

I enjoy Christmas! Maybe I enjoy it a little too much... I preserve the 12 Days, I keep my decorations up long past Epiphany and even use Christmas wrapping on my birthday presents to people.

From Santa Claus to the Nativity and the imagery in no set order I am very big on Christmas.

I got the name The Christmas Room from an old Facebook group I setup a couple of years ago in order to create a little pocket of social networking for people to enjoy and share lingering snippets of Christmas throughout the year.

January has to be my least favourite month of the year. Christmas is packed away and there's seemingly an emptiness in place of the festivities and joy.

In any case, I've branched out The Christmas Room to Blogger to continue my on off urge to get Christmas out of my system and do something constructive..
