Manos: The Music Video

I recently read at Mondo Bizarro that a sequel to "Manos: The Hands of Fate" is in the works. According to the production website, TorgoLives.com (click on the link to visit in a new window), the film will debut some time in 2013.

Be sure to watch the "Master Returns" clip on the site. I'm sure you'll agree with me that if this new movie as as funny as what is presented there, it will be hilarious. (I could have done without the canned laughter, and I think it goes on just a little too long, but stick with it, because it gets very, very funny at the very end. It's also the best use of "Torgo's Theme" ever.)

As absolutely awful as "Manos" is--it is SO bad that the guys at "Mystery Science Theater 3000" struggled to make even the edited version they used entertaining--something good is coming of it. Maybe. If the world doesn't end in 2012, we'll know for sure. Meanwhile, there's this music video, written and produced by the creator of the forthcoming "Manos" film. It's hilarious.
