For the Santa movie, try mst3k, since it was featured on that show once.

Santa Claus conquers the martians featured a very young Pia Zadora.

Oops ... I also meant to say that it used to be on TV quite often in Australia in christmases in the early 70s.

oh ok. I had never heard of it till a person at art school recomended it when we got talking about B-movies.

I liked The Edukators a lot, especially that last scene.

I really wanted to see Kitchen Stories! It came to my local indie cinema but I missed it. It sounded really good.

I found Kitchen stories at my favorite video store, but it is the best place for rentals in the universe so it might be harder to find in chain rental places :(.

I'll search it out, it's bound to be somewhere. I'm on sofacinema, if all else fails.

I love Santa Claus Conquers The Martians!

Oh and the Edukators one, well, it doesn't have to be 'practically unheard of' to be counted as 'obscure'. :) It's not Harry Potter now is it. :P

Yeah Santa Claus Conquers The Martians kicks some ass. Almost my favourite cult film of all time. Now Eraserhead...that was a damn good cult film, probably first equal with pulp fiction for the moment ^^

OMFG, I totally bought Santa Claus Conquers the Martians for my sister this past christmas. Hell, it was a dollar and we're b-movie fanatics. It's funny shite when you're drunk, yeah yeah <3

marl_w July 30 2007, 07:23:01 UTC

One dollar? SCORE! Hah i watched it on red wine and nearly pissed myself watching the bad effects. Sadly i havent seen any 'ed wood' films yet. Must get round to it. They are ment to be the all time B-movie greats. Like the guy put two movies together which had failed (ran out of money or something) and made one movie and...i dont know if he hoped no one would notice or what?
