"It's no secret that Wayne Coyne enjoys acting like an alien..."
"Endearingly ragged...destined for cult status...abetted with homemade-looking but sometimes lyrical effects."
- Andy Webster, New York Times
"Christmas on Mars is great, if only you could understand it...a psychedelic accomplishment that will inevitably gain more favor as it ages...Twilight Zone poetry."
"a moody, somewhat demented trip, albeit one with amateur actors and giant genitalia in astronaut suits."
- Todd Martens, Los Angeles Times
"It's basically as weird as you'd hoped."
- Isaac Butler, New York Magazine
"this mostly black-and-white, dreamlike yuletide fable does possess its own dorky DIY charm, as space-suited men wander around narrow enclosures in various stages of dissociation, Santas commit airlock suicide, and a nurse/mother in a giant lightbulb births a bubble baby."
"created with amateur compulsiveness, patched together on self-made sets in Coyne’s Oklahoma backyard. One recalls another spacey film: Close Encounters of the Third Kind, in which Richard Dreyfuss maniacally constructs giant mounds to satisfy his vision...."
