I agree. I don't see how that one made the list. That's one that I'll watch every single time it's on.

Oh, dude, no.

Whoever made this list clearly has a vendetta against Arnold.

"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is far and away, hands-down, THE worst Christmas movie ever made. I defy anyone to find one single redeeming feature to that cellu-turd.

My husband and I are slowly building his sister and her husband an MST3K collection.

Last year they got "Mitchell."

This year, they're getting "Eegah" and "I Accuse My Parents," and (for a bonus) "The [Non-MST3K] Lost Skeleton of Cadavra," which just might be the best movie ever made.

I remember seeing it back in the 70s when I was a kid. I thought it sucked even back then.

Martian kids who want to see Santa.

No matter what anyone says, I like The Santa Clause. Just saw it yesterday and I still like it.

My husband got to see the original airing of the "Mitchell" episode back in 1993. He said he thought he was gonna hurt himself, he laughed so hard.

"Mitchell" is definitely Top 5 . . . and it just might be the best MST3K EVER.

The laugh-free comedy featured Arnie desperately trying to get his hands on the latest must-have toy for his young son.

'Jingle All the Way' was not laugh-free. It had exactly one laugh in it:

In one scene, Sinbad -- a postman who is in competition w/ Arnie to get the McGuffin -- ends up in a stand-off with police. As a bluff, he pulls out some random parcel from his mailbag and claims it's a bomb, threatening to set it off if they don't let him leave... sure enough, he gets away, leaving the package behind where the police gingerly approach it. Then we see Sinbad running away, only to hear a 'boom' coming from behind him & smoke coming from where the package was left. He stares in surprise, then shakes his head and says, "Man, people are sick!"

"Jingle All the Way" was awful in every way imaginable, except maybe for the slimeball Phil Hartman character. Everything else was unbearable. It was a comedy without a single funny moment.

"Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is the perfectly awful cheeseball treat.

Was Cary's Grinch as bad as Mike Myers' Cat in the Hat?

No. Watching Cary's performance was like eating wet moldy bread, while watching Myer's performance was like eating wet moldy crap.
