Summary: Not the worst
Review: I agree that this is the most wretched movie they've ever done. My local cemetery has livelier plots. However, it is one of their best. As bad as this movie is, they were still able to follow it and rip it to shreds. The absolute worse is "Monster A Go-Go". That movie was so bad that Joel & the bots were talking about stuff unrelated to the movie. They almost lost me as a fan on that episode. At least "Manos" had some characters that could be made fun of( Mike's Torgo is their best imitation). As painful as it was to watch, and as irritating as the little girl's voice is. At least they didn't try to make you believe that a grown man could fit inside a space capsule the size of a milk bottle, or use a human voice to simulate a ringing telephone. This is the one episode I hope never makes it to video.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worst Movie In The History Of Mankind
Review: It's Manos, Hands of Fate. Does a dirty man who stutters and walks funny scare you? A man wearing a black robe with two giant red hands on it? No? How about six women fighting each other by rolling all over each other on the floor? Still not scared? Of course you're not. This was silliest, palest excuse for a horror movie I have seen in my life. It makes the Haunting look like Psycho in comparison. Thank god for Joel and the Bots. If not for their riffing I would suffer a massive coronary from sitting through this piece of junk. A bad day for movies, a great day of MST3K.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not the best, but second, and the most famous
Review: At a summer school that I attended, through my own choice, it rained one day. Luckily, I had my Sack-O-Mst3k with me. Manos was such a bad movie we at the dorm couldn't peal ourselves away. And it was such a good epeisode, we couldn't leave either. Although Manos hits every MST guideline of flat out bad movie making, I do have to say Red Zone Cuba is a tad better episode. Why not get both so you can span through the Joel to Mike eras.

Torgo. What can I say. He did steal the show. Get Manos just to see this guy. And if you do enjoy Mike, he is in this episode.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Horrible and Hilarious
Review: This is the worst movie MST3K took on, with the possible exception of Red Zone Cuba. Torgo lives!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The funniest episode!
Review: You will die laughing, I swear. I have seen so many episodes of MST3K, but this one is BAD. I mean that in a good way. This features the imfamous Torgo of the horrendous knee deformity... one of the funniest characters ever to lampooned by the MST3K squad. Not to forget Manos--himself (a bad Frank Zappa lookalike in his lovely "Hands of Fate" robe that looks like it was a throwaway home-ec project). The hound from hell, Manos's many wives, the stereotypical dumb law enforcement and the obligatory "Torgo fondling" scene. This is a MUST for any MST3K collector.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Yes it's Manos: The Hands of Fate
Review: Just incase you forgot, Manos: The Hands of Fate. Yes Manos seems to be the absolute worst movie ever shown on MST3K. Even though some movies seem worse nothing can be more evil than Manos. Joel & the bots do a great job riffing this movie and that's why it's become a favorite among fans of MST3K. Oh and don't forget Torgo. Without him the movie wouldn't be the same. This episode also has the short "Hired part 2" and the bots are also good at riffing that. So I suggest you should get this episode as soon as possible. I think you'd like this one a lot. Ah Flying Elves are back...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Manos"-the hands of fate
Review: Definitely a MST3K classic, I loved every minute of this movie! 2 words: High-larious.

"It'll be dark soon..."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this was HILARIOUS!
Review: Out of all of the mystery science theater 3000 movies, this was by far the absolute best! It was the funniest one of them all. It is beyond words, I just couldn't stop laughing!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This movie is the result of reefer madness
Review: That's all. This movie sucks. Don't ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever watch it. You will be very sorry. Your brain will rot and ooze out your ears- but not in a good absinthe way- a bad, yucky, painful, numbing way. You will be a happier person if you don't watch this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the Best of the Worst
Review: What could be the worst movie ever made is one of the funniest of the released MSTies. "Manos" is awful and repellant that it approaches art.It is so confusing it becomes surrreal. While not as bad as Monster A go-go, it definitley is...bad. The trancelike jazzy-music only adds to it's surreal quality and of course there's the "haunting Torgo theme". It also has one of my personal favorite segments when Joel and the bots are comntemplating monsters. NOW IF THEY WOULD ONLY RELEASE "BRIDE OF THE MONSTER"OR ANY OF THE RUSSIAN MOVIES THEY DID. (Day the earth froze, Magic Voyage of Sinbad etc..)
