Torg (Robot)

Torg was a robot presented in the 1964 Christmas movie, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians [1]. In the movie, Torg attacks Santa's workshop, and is finally turned into a Christmas toy. It appeared to have been crudely constructed from cardboard, silver paint, glue-on controls, and ducting work for arms.

Torg was named among the five worst movie robots ever created. [2]
