[7 Minute Manos!] (Viewer #43)

For those of you who know “Manos: The Hands of Fate” only as an MST3K episode, it now comes in a 7-minute “essential plot points only” version.

For those of you who don’t know it… it’s still awful as a 7-minute video. Not “so bad it’s good”, just bad. Not even sure it qualifies as train-wreck-interesting.

This is not a criticism of the scene selection and editing (which was excellent), but rather a knock on the dismal source material itself. Poor guy had nothing to work with, but did his best.
