"Manos" The Hands of Fate

Richard Beymer's Twin Peaks Gallery

"Manos" The Hands of Fate is a 1966 American horror film written, directed and produced by El Paso fertilizer salesman Harold P. Warren. Warren also starred in the film, alongside El Paso theater actors Tom Neyman and John Reynolds. The film is best known for having been featured in a 1993 episode of the television comedy series Mystery Science Theater 3000, a show based on the premise of mocking B-movies, which gave the film cult status…

Upon its theatrical debut, the film was poorly received, and remained obscure until its Mystery Science Theater appearance. It has since gained infamy as one of the worst films ever made

Comments

In Manos, there is an opening scene of a car driving down the road which lasts for about 15 minutes. There were supposed to be opening credits here, but it was forgotten about so there's just a long boring scene.
