Fun fact about Torgo: Apparently he was supposed to be a Satyr but the actor had the metal rigging in his pants on backwards, and no one on set corrected this. Hence his hilariously large thighs

This whole movie was made because a fertiliser salesman bet an academy award winning screenwriter that is was easy to make a horror movie.

I always pity the filmmakers of this movie. They were so excited but ended being so laughed at at the premiere that they sneaked out due to humiliation. Poor folks.

So it's a pre-1970s review... and a Hilariocity... and a Halloween review all in one. Makes sense to me.

Manos is unquestionably a terrible movie, but there’s something legitimately creepy about it.

"Every frame of this movie looks like someone's last known photograph" How can you hate this movie it's fantastic!

in Spanish, Manos stands for hand. so the title of the film is Hand: The Hands Of Fate.

One of the best episodes of MST3K ever

I met the child actor in this film during a college class and she told us that everyone was dubbed over and that her family made most if not all of the props for it.

At this point Stuckman's reviewing everything BUT The Haunting of Hill House!

Why is it that every frame of this movie looks like someone’s last known photograph?

Tommy Wiseau and Ed Wood made bad movies, but at least they did that out of passion. Harold Warren made this as a bet. By the way, this is a real conversation I had with a friend: -Me: "What do you think is worse? MANOS or PLAN 9?" -Him: "That's easy. PLAN 9 is hilarious crap. MANOS is boring crap."

The ONLY good thing about this movie is that we got the funniest episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 from it.

I think Torgo was supposed to be faun, so that effect is an attempt to make it look like his knees are facing the other direction. And they nailed it.

R.I.P. Torgo (John Reynolds, 1941-1966) R.I.P. Micheal (Harold Warren, 1923-1985) R.I.P. The Master (Tom Neyman, 1935-2016)

Damn - you’re really hitting it out of the park with the guests at the moment! Another great video

This movie is proof that LITERALLY anyone could make a movie if they want.

Torgo is the greatest character in all of film.

Oooooh, I could not imagine watching this movie without the mystery science theater commentary.

3:33 Spice World deserves a Hilariocity review. It's the very definition of a hilariocity, whether or not you're a fan of the Spice Girls.

The master... won't....be Happy... about this review... *Torgo's theme music starts* Edit: after watching the whole video, I'm gonna go make a movie now.

Manos is my favorite "listen to while going to sleep" movie, with MST3K commentary.

Pre 1970s horror films: Rosemary’s Baby Blood and Black Lace Nosferatu Frankenstein Black Christmas Night of the Living Dead Or how about MANOS: The Hands of Fate. I’m not complaining. This is probably the scariest movies out of that list.

Chris, what about the review for Bad Times at the El Royale?

I really have to agree with what Tom Servo said about Manos: "This movie has a Ken Russell feel to it, I'd say." It does!

Manos= thanos's brother

My friends and I will still quote Torgo. He's a masterpiece.

The scene where the little girl comes back with the "demon dog" after losing her little poodle was hilarious. I half expected her to tell the Mom that she had traded it in for an upgrade.

I never thought a Hilariocity review would be so inspiring! I've been getting ready to launch my channel with a series of videos (and have been nervous) and I have been inspired by your words. Thanks Chris and Joe!

The ONLY way to watch Manos is the MST3K cut with Joel and the bots. Made for one of the best MST3K episodes. The bots losing it just during the opening credits. Crow: "This is going to be a snuff film."

Love the hilariocities. Chris, you make great videos

I laughed so hard at that girls around the fire scene. That one girl barely touched the other and yet she sets her arm afterward like she swung with her full force

Chris plz review the descent

The title translates to Hands:The Hands of Fate! This should be good!

I’m almost in tears! I LOVE this video Chris! It’s so wonderful to see how your channel and video quality have progressed over the years. I have never heard of this movie, so I watched it on a whim because I was bored. This video was so inspiring and I’m not sure if you even know how great this was! I mean I love to hear you talk anyway, but hearing how you were inspired by the film and how you and Joe said there’s basically no excuse not to create, it re-ignited a fire inside of me to create. Thanks a lot!

Their discussion about film and to follow your dreams and to share your mind is was extremely inspiring to me. And I will put that to good use in my future. Thank you Chris and Joe!!!

Watched this hoping to laugh, ended up planning how to write that book I always wanted to publish!

Torgo is my favorite character in the film. Mystery Science Theater 3000 made it so much better. It's the only way to see this movie, the Torgo impressions made by the bots always made my sides hurt

Read the title as "Thanos: The Hands of Fate😂"

Appreciate the amount of work you've been putting in!! Stuckmanizing all kinds of heads!

Great Video as always Chris. I love this time of year, and to get to meet your awesome friends. Great guest.

You're on fire right now Chris. Loving the videos!

Chris should review Birdemic (2010). It makes Sharknado look like an Oscar contender.

When will you review Daredevil Season 3?

Thank you Chris! You're making it worth being up this early

7:36 "somebody get that cat off the piano" 😂 I can only stomach the MST3K version

Hey if you want a horror movie for a hilariocity, try Zaat

Nothing better than an early morning treat from chris! Have a wonderful and blessed day, everyone!

Seriously the most inspiring review ever! Love you guys ❤️

This was the most unexpectedly inspiring video I've ever seen lol Great work guys. I've actually seen Manos proper, without MST3K commentary...it was an ordeal and a half lol

Honestly, I have always wanted to direct and write films. The reason I haven't was because I was to scared to have someone tell me that it was shit. This video made me change my mind. I'm definitely going to start as soon a possible. Thank you guys.

The store behind the movie is pretty hilarious. I dont think at any point did the director want to make a "good" movie. He just wanted to win his bet. I dont think the bet was even for it to be successful, just feature length. This is the only movie I've ever seen the feels longer than gone with the wind but it's only an hour and some change.

Love your Hilariocity reviews. They bring me so much joy

I really love that Chris is bringing in new faces to the channel and having great discussions with people. I’m so glad he’s branching out the format, it’s really entertaining!

Interesting cheesy horror flick but I'm more interested in Stuckmann's shirt

The Torgo March is my ringtone

That was way more inspiring than it should have been. Great job, Joe and Chris!

I saw this film during a Rifftrax Live screening.

This is one of greatest episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, so I suggest anyone who has never watched it with them, to do so. Manos is an instant classic with them.

Great review, as always! Do you still plan on doing Bad Times at the El Royale?

I saw some of the outtakes, and there are something like 1000 scenes of the ladies fighting, some of them in street clothes (rehearsal, ummm)-I’m guessing the Other Reason Hal made this flick was to watch ladies fight. The couple making out was a girl that broke her leg and since she was promised a role in the film, so.... Tommy Wiseau has and had FAR more experience than Hal Warren-Wiseau did commercials for his weird clothing store, whereas Warren ... well ... didn’t. I’m sad to know that the “actor” playing Torgo was 1) tripping BALLS during the shoot, and 2) a few weeks away from suicide. Thank you SO much for doing this film-and for recognizing that movies happened before you were born. I’m delighted to see this vid.

Hey Chris, just wanted to let you know I love your reviews, and the content is always genuine and top notch.

love your content stuckmann! I like the chemistry between you and the guests it makes it so fun to watch

As someone who is finishing her degree and aspires to make documentaries... yeah, this review was really fucking inspiring lmao. Love you content, Chris, and the guests you bring to review movies with you. Great work :)

I went to a huge block party dressed as Torgo in 2005...one drunk guy knew who I was, and man did he love me that night.

I can't imagine watching this without the MST3K/rifftrax crew. The only versions I've ever seen and need to see

I love that shirt he got from every review. Especially on Halloween. The Power Rangers version of horror characters just freaking awesome. I gotta find it and wear it this Halloween.

Six more days till Halloween Halloween,Halloween Six more days till Halloween Silver Shamrock. Bom ba bom bom ba

For the love of god do The Haunting of Hill House!

That was one of the most inspirational things I've heard, thank you so much for this episode.

The "mystery" of Torgo's knees/funny-walk is that he has the beast-legs of a satyr.

I could never find that soound effect. Thank you. My collection is now complete.

Manos doesnt deserve the bad rap. the film took me on an emotional rollercoaster.with some top notch acting ❤❤

Man, this was inspiring AS FUCK!!!! Loving your new direction in these types of reviews, Chris.

Great discussion fellas! I really enjoyed this

Chris, I love all the stuff you put out and I smile everytime a new notification for your videos pops on my phone. That being said, I would love to hear your take on The Haunting of Hill House. I thought it was absolutely exquisite. (if you don't have Netflix, I will give you my account because I think you should watch the series:)

The "director" was a fertilizer salesman who made a bet that he could make a movie because he thought filmmaking was easy. Torgo was supposed to be a faun or a satyr or something like that, and they made braces for the actor to wear, but he had them on backwards, which gave him permanent knee damage and an addiction to painkillers, and he wound up killing himself before the film premiered. The only actual "actor" in the film was the girl in the car, and most of the budget went to pay for her salary. The little girl in the film is "The Master's" actual daughter, and the doberman was her dog. Not trained for film of course, so he didn't behave well on set.

I had better editing skills in 6th grade using two VCRs (back in the late 90's) than the guy who filmed Manos. I actually made a few projects with my dad's camera, I even dabbled with stop-motion for a bit, but as embarrasing as they are now (I actually got mocked with my first project), at least I can proudly admit that with my final project in 6th grade, I learned a lot from my past projects, about editing and pacing, volume normalizing, proper lighting, splicing music into the project (using a CD Player) and even a proper credits sequence using Power Point. Granted, it was a History project, but I still felt proud about what I accomplished with it. I absolutely 100% agree with Chris, stuff like this is inspirational for how you DO NOT want your movie or film project to be like.

I've seen Manos probably 50 times but always with the MST3K treatment. I don't think I could watch it without the riffs.

This movie was made as a joke when a man told his friend who was a director that movies we easy to make. They made a bet, and the guy made Manos. Torgo is dead. He committed suicide partially due to pain from trying to wear the leg stilts which he had on backwards. He was permanently injured from trying to wear them.

I first saw this movie on Mystery Science Theatre 3000, I about died laughing.

Quentin Tarantino claims this is legit one of his favorite films of all time.

my friends and I actually had this same, super inspiration experience after we watched Birdemic

A welcome addition to these videos Kudos my man

Love all the new guests, they are awesome!

I give credit to this movie only because it created the greatest MST3K episode ever

Torgo was supposed to be a 'Pan' like character with goat legs. But wore the prosthetic legs wrong which is why he walked the way he did

3 collaboration videos in a row

Wow! You’re co-host is extremely inspiring! Very fair honest review!

I’ve been going on binge of your channel and I came across this movie and I am glad I’m not the only one that has seen this movie!

Chris, I hope you will review Faithful Findings. It would make a great hilariocity review!

Yea, a Halariocity review for Halloween! These are what brought me to Stuckman's channel to begin with.

Not only did they spell Thanos' name wrong, the movie also has nothing to do with him. And shouldn't it be "Guantlet" of fate? These early Marvel movies are so bad.

AWESOME shirt, Chris!

Great video guys!

Love the content Chris keep it up! On a different non-horror topic wondering if you’re planning to see the sisters brothers I believe it has at least a semi-wide release at this point

I dont think Ive ever been more excited for a hilariocity review. Chris... you would really like the channel GoodBadFlicks. Cecil really puts a lot of time/effort into his vids

Hilariocities are always appreciated Chris!

Finally. I've been waiting for this for a long time.

I enjoyed Joe a lot in this co-review. He is smart, approachable and also handsome, I'd love to see you bring him on more often!
