Well now that we're into movie trivia...

as I recall, 'Santa Claus Conquers the Martians'
was filmed in New York... it was that cheap.

I loved the scene where the martians land on earth...

There they are, seated behind their spacecraft controls,
with the stars and planets of space visible through
the large picture-window... one of the planets
swaying back and forth, as if suspended by fishing
line from the ceiling... hmmmmmm.

Then there's the scene where the commander of the martian
force (such that it is) announces, "We've landed [on earth]".
Except that the same stars and planets are STILL visible
outside that picture window.  Talk about continuity!
