It's Christmas time, and your friends at your favorite Mountlake marijuana store are settling into our favorite Christmas traditions, like baking cookies, whipping up our secret eggnog recipes, and watching our favorite yuletide flicks. You know, like Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

The premise behind this relatively obscure holiday classic is pretty simple. Basically, the jolly old gets kidnapped by Martians, because the little ones of the Red Planet haven’t ever experienced the pure joy he provides. Yeah, it’s a little wild, but it’s not like Miracle on 34th Street or A Christmas Carol could be sold as nonfiction.

Of course any movie that involves little green men is going to require some little green buds, and as you might imagine your Lynnwood weed shop has some recommendations that’ll keep you in space for the entire running time.

Conspiracy Kush by Project M

Whether or not you believe aliens have actually been to earth — our lips are sealed — Conspiracy Kush is sure to keep your brain chasing down rabbit holes. Obama Kush and Space Queen come together beautifully here, and the 26.4% THC rating lets you know it’s as serious as a black helicopter.

Moonwalker Kush by Royal Tree

This tasty, slightly sour indica-dominant hybrid is rated a 25.6% THC, which is enough jam to make even veteran smokers feel like first time astronauts. We’re big fans of its spicy aftertaste, though couch-lock can be a concern.

Tahoe Alien OG by Coastal Cannabis

Another strain with an out-of-this-world moniker, Tahoe Alien is an indica-dominant strain. Crafted by breeding Tahoe OG Kush and Alien Kush, this hybrid delivers 19.9% THC, giving it a nice, balanced buzz that’s sure to keep your crew glued to the screen.

At just over six bucks — $6.17, to be exact the Up Your Chimney film nights are a fun, cheap way to add some goofy fun to your holidays. Head to the official site to score your tickets ahead of time, and don’t forget to roll through Fweedom Collective beforehand. Because seriously, if there was a movie in history which demanded you be baked, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is the one.
