- Summary:
- Laugh along as Joel and his botbuddies suffer through 'Manos The Hands of Fate'. It's a laborious piece of flotsam starring Torgo, a demented caretaker who, as Joel puts it, 'looks like a chainsaw sculpture'. The only saving grace, and probable reason the bore was produced, is the scene with a group of nubile nymphs wrestling around in their nighties. Well, that and the fact that it serves as fodder for the MST3K's rapacious wit.
