Atrocious on every level...but there is something to say about the fact that it exists, and the drive he had to get it made. Go to Full Review

It's sloppy, inexcusably cheap, and very silly, but it retains a certain moxie that suggests Warren wasn't intentionally tanking the production, he just didn't know what he was doing. Go to Full Review

Yes, it's the one, the only, the must-be-seen-to-be-disbelieved Manos: The Hands of Fate. Go to Full Review

The bad film has no pleasure value, as it is irritating and never funny. Go to Full Review

It's not even a movie; it's barely a time killer. It's more of a soul killer. Go to Full Review

James H Nov 2 I have watched many a bad movie that was worth my time. This movie had moments so bad I did laugh, but good god it was boring and so bad bad, I had to watch it in two sittings, will I watch it again? Maybe 1 more time if someone wants to try that experience and be on for the ride, but this is for sure not the best of bad films out there. See more Liam D @Mediawatcher2003 Oct 31 A movie literally made on a bet (and the title literally translated to Hands: The Hands of Fate) it’s so bafflingly incomprehensible and dreadfully boring. It’s one of the worst movies ever made for reason but it’s not even funny in a so bad it’s good way See more Stephen C @bob25009 Oct 25 Success in 1 hour and 14 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more Kenny A @nerdsman567 Jul 13 If a plague on cinema exists, it is known as "Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966)." One of the absolute worst movies I've ever seen, if not THE worst film I've ever seen, beyond ANY shred of a doubt! An absolute travesty in every conceivable way. The only version of this movie worth watching is the "Mystery Science Theater" version (Which, to this day, has become their most famous episode and forever cemented its infamous legacy). I can't imagine watching it any other way. See more @Erock1991 Jun 25 Yeah it's as bad as everyone says it is. Got to be the worst movie I've ever watched See more Mar 22 Manos, The Hands Of Fate -Mystery Science Theater 3000 See more Read all reviews
