Without a doubt...THE WORST MOVIE EVER MADE! Not even Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" can compete...thats how BAD this garbage is!! I remember buying this movie on ebay for 35 cents lol!!
@ponsitogt also the way he walked wasn't him walking like that on purpose, they made him put on a stilted contraption to make him walk like a satyr. Problem was he had it on backwards and nobody said a thing, so he ended up going on painkillers due to the excruciating pain he was going through. Sadly he commited suicide. The good note is he didn't have to watch the god awful film that gave him his injuries.
I'm surprised so many on here think this is a good movie. There's so many long awkward pauses with nothing going on in this movie. It's painful to sit through.
@OdikosGamias You're kidding, right? Gone with the Wind and The Adventures of Robin Hood, Wizard of Oz... those were all made in the 1930s...
You're surely not insinuating that only modern films can be good, right? Manos was terrible because it was made poorly- not because it was from the 60s.
If you really want to see a Crappy movie then see Superbabies baby geniuses 2.I was shocked to see John Voight in it.Anyways some of you who are seeing this clip is because this movie is in IMBD'S worst list of films.
This movie is really funny and yet silly.I used to condemn movies like Daddy Day Camp,Ed,Jawbreaker and Dumb and Dumber when Harry Met Loyd but those movies seem like Dr Strangelove,In the Heat of the Night,Network or Annie Hall in front of this one.
@CircusofPython It didn't have anything to do with the movie, he had serious drug/mental health issues, as confirmed by Bernie Rosenblum (the teen in the car.)
Im so curious why we all find this movie so amusing. I have become a big fan of this TRAIN WRECK ,but dont know why. anyway, its actully more entertaining than the garbage Hollywood puts out today. Think about it, How many movies or actors today will be watched 45 years from now? Not many i would guess. I think thats the atraction to this film, A few people at least tried. I have 270 chanells on my tv..... Nothing on. What does that say about todays talent.
i'd say Grampa Seth, he can appear in any mirror he wants to, he just sometimes forgets what his grandchildren look like. Oh and he can make fire extinguishers magically appear! and use double decker bologne sandwiches for good
Yeah and he had that axe and all. But Torgo could distract him with his legs and freak him out by akwardly fumbling his hand at him and calling on The Master. He did tie that one guy up. We may never know.....
Move over Orson Welles in "The Third Man." Move over Darth Vader. This is the best entrance in the history of the cinema, ladies and gentlemen. Right here. Screen immortality.
Okay I always insisted that Basket Case was the worst movie ever made. My friend said THIS was and he's right. It looks hilarious! This makes Basket Case look like Rosemary's Baby!
...ok forget the twitching guy he's just drugs, my question is why do they all get out of the car and hold hands while standing on the spot practically engaging the dude in a staring contest until he goes off on his confident but loony rant (with a silent intermission)??? If you just want to know where Valley lodge is, why not just ask then???
When you ask someone else for directions do you go up to stare at them? I'm I the only one who takes a more sensible approach?
Also I read on wikipedia that in the very first minutes the audience who saw this at the time were laughing at it for it's acting and the poor quality of the picture. The cast made a hasty exit and at the end the audience's reaction was a mix of applause and laughter xD. I cant believe how horrible the music and these pauses in between the sentences are!
Supposedly, the guy who played Torgo was an avid drug user and was usually high off his ass during most shoots. Plus this movie was made on a $19,000 budget and was originally scripted on a napkin, so... probably not gonna attract the A-listers.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well, OldBritishLady, I hope you recover from the "Black Plague" soon so you can see MANOS again. I say again, because it seems as though you know a lot about this film. Remember, the Master does not like dogs either.....Hope you solve your rat problem over there in the UK.
I was age 16 back in 1966 in El Paso, Texas and heard about the WORLD PREMIERE of Manos: The Hands of Fate. There were write-ups about it in the two major papers and I think coverage on the local news. I did not attend the WORLD PREMIERE, but I checked the newspaper listings and went on a Saturday afternoon.... I thought it was going to be a scary movie, and after about ten minutes or so I started to giggle a little. I noticed others at the downtown El Paso theater were laughing a little too...
My cousin did a Torgo joke once about ten years ago- I had no idea what the hell he was talking about until about ten minutes ago! You learn something new every day.
Hey, if you are interested in categories like "worst movie", why not rather try Armageddon? those guys had CAST, had DOLLAR, but lacked WIT and dishonoured the audience more than this one ever did. The truth is: many of you say this is the worst, because others said so and you feel comfortable to say it after them. Why not take the courage by admitting obvious redeeming qualities like the character of Torgo and the hilarious stageplay it urged to be spawned by Lastrites?
@moccagriselda The actor DIED for his art, in a manner of speaking. Can Willis and Affleck say that? I, for one, would like to see an Armageddon stage play, especially a musical.
