Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

Film Series – Santa Claus Conquers the Martians • December 12th, 2025 • 7pm
The Civic Center Auditorium • 401 S Balsam St., NE, Moses Lake, WA

BUY FILM TICKETS

In collaboration with the Moses Lake Creative District, we’re bringing you a blast of retro holiday magic…

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964) is landing!

Yes… it’s exactly as wild as it sounds.

Get ready for retro sci-fi holiday madness in this delightfully bizarre classic from 1964! Earth’s jolliest man in red is about to take on an entire planet—because even Martians need a little Christmas cheer.

Movie Synopsis:
On Mars, the kids are cranky, lazy, and glued to their Earth TV broadcasts. Martian ruler Kimar is not having it. His solution? Kidnap Santa Claus from Earth to bring joy to the Red Planet. Totally reasonable, right?

But when two Earth kids accidentally get taken along for the ride, things go hilariously off course in this campy, low-budget gem filled with cardboard spaceships, green face paint, and festive chaos.

  • Aliens.
  • Christmas.
  • Santa Claus.

 What more do you need?

Come for the kitsch, stay for the laughs, and enjoy a holiday film that’s out of this world.

Come for the comedy, stay for the chaos.

  • Doors to the theater open at 6 PM, Film starts at 7 PM.  A 10-minute intermission will be included—grab snacks, stretch, and settle back in.
  • Select concessions available.

The Little Shop of Horrors

Film Series – 1960’s Little Shop of Horrors• October 3, 2025 • 7pm
The Civic Center Auditorium • 401 S Balsam St., NE, Moses Lake, WA

BUY FILM TICKETS

In collaboration with the Moses Lake Creative District  we are ready to present the 1960’s cult classic The Little Shop of Horrors

Feed Me, Seymour!

Get ready for laughs, gasps, and just a little bit of murder. Our next Friday Film feature is the original 1960s version of Little Shop of Horrors—the delightfully twisted horror-comedy that proves sometimes success really does come at a price… a very bloody price.

About the Film:
Seymour is a meek flower shop assistant with a big crush on his co-worker Audrey. But things get… weird… when a total eclipse brings him face-to-stem with a strange little plant he names Audrey II. This isn’t your average houseplant—it’s got a taste for human flesh and blood, and it’s hungry. REALLY hungry.

Business is booming, the plant is growing, and Seymour finds himself in way over his head when “plant care” turns into body count.

  •  Sci-fi weirdness
  • One bloodthirsty plant
  • And more awkward flower shop romance than you can handle

Come for the comedy, stay for the chaos.

  • Doors to the theater open at 6 PM, Film starts at 7 PM.  A 10-minute intermission will be included—grab snacks, stretch, and settle back in.
  • Select concessions available. 
  • Please note the film is rated PG

BUY FILM TICKETS

In collaboration with the Moses Lake Creative District we are excited to present the exciting kickoff of our Friday Film Series, with the movie that defined a generation—Twilight!

Celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Book with the 2008 Movie That Sparked a Global Phenomenon. This September marks 20 years since the original book was released, and what better way to honor the legacy than with a community screening of the 2008 film that started it all?

About the Film:

High school student Bella Swan, always a bit of a misfit, doesn’t expect life to change much when she moves from sunny Arizona to rainy Washington state. Then she meets Edward Cullen, a handsome but mysterious teen whose eyes seem to peer directly into her soul. Edward is a vampire whose family does not drink blood, and Bella—far from being frightened—enters into a dangerous romance with her immortal soulmate.

Whether you’re Team Edward, Team Jacob, or just here for the vampire baseball scene, this is a night you won’t want to miss!

  • Doors to the theater open at 6 PM, Film starts at 7 PM.  A 10-minute intermission will be included—grab snacks, stretch, and settle back in.
