Civic Center Auditorium • 401 S Balsam St. NE Moses Lake, WA
Columbia Basin Allied Arts is proud to present its first Film Series within its 48th Season of operations at the Civic Center Auditorium in Moses Lake.
Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is a 1964 American Christmas science fiction comedy film.
The Martians Momar and Kimar are worried that their children Girmar and Bomar are watching too much Earth television, most notably station KID-TV’s interview with Santa Claus in his workshop at Earth’s North Pole.
Chochem, an 800-year-old Martian sage, advises them that the children of Mars are growing distracted due to the society’s overly rigid structure. He has seen this coming “for centuries” and says that the only way to help the children is to allow them their freedom and be allowed to have fun. To do this, Mars needs a Santa Claus figure, like on Earth. Leaving Chochem’s cave, the Martian leaders decide to abduct Santa Claus from Earth and bring him to Mars.
