Home alone. In Germany called "Kevin allein zu Haus".
But i like both Parts.
And then there is another movie which is very traditional. He its called Little Lord. You may know it as "Little Lors Fountleroy" I think. Christmas Does not statt before i watch this movies.

Seriously?? Nobody watches Miracle On 34th Street?This one is right up there with It's A Wonderful Life Maureen O'Hara, Natalie Wood (when she was a little girl), and Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle. This is just a well done family/grown-up holiday movie - Academy Award winner in black and white (made in 1947) this one gets 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄 out of 5 X-mas trees from me!

I have yet to watch the Patrick Stewart version. How does it compare? In fairness it's the only one I have watched other than the cartoon version so I don't know.

" Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is generally considered one of the worst movies ever made... Why it Sucks (from the "Awful Movie Wiki" database; link): - Ridiculously stupid and childish concept. - The costumes of the "Martians" are laughable and look like poorly made Batman cosplays. - Muddled plot. - Poorly made sets. - An annoying song at the beginning of the movie. - Stock footage. - Misleading title: Santa doesn't conquer the Martians. He basically gets kidnapped then decides Dropo would be a good Santa for the Martians, then Santa and the kids go back to Earth. - Characters who range from utterly unneeded to insufferably annoying. - Terrible and cheesy acting, even for 60's standards. - Poor soundtrack. - Lazy effects. - Stupid names.(eg. Voldar and Stobo) The question is Wisconsin: is it one of those " so bad it's good" type of movies?

I think because it's so bad it's kind of intriguing to watch You don't want to, but you have to see how it ends. now that you've spoiled the ending for those who haven't watched it (those lucky bastards!) I don't know whether to give you a thumbs up for saving them from watching it or shake my head in disgust for not tricking them into watching it by the way I also have in my dvd collection Plan 9 From Outer Space, which would give Santa Claus Conquers the Martians a run for it's money as being one of the worst films ever made. Yup, nothing but class in my movie collection! Merry Christmas Brother!!!

I'd have to give it some thought but the worst one that comes to my mind that I've seen is "Troll". Then maybe Napolean Dyamite. I couldn't get past the first 20 minutes.
