1. My God that movie was awful!
Even MST3K couldn't make it funny.


I do love MST3K though. :)

4. Second break. And yes, it's getting worse
I laughed my ass off at this line, though: "Every frame of this movie looks like someone's 'last known' picture!" :rofl:

3. First break
I think my teeth will soon try to reach around and eat my brain.

I get the same feeling watching Shrub speak off-the-cuff :scared:

Time for another Dr. Pepper!

Dear god, was there a spike in suicides after watching this movie?!?!?!? :puke:

Without Joel and the 'bots... :-)

Oh, man, that's all I can say.

6. Final wrap up
MST3k did good.

Someone needs to Taser Harold P. Warren if he gets within 100 yards of a movie camera. And if that won't stop him, deadly force is authorized.

7. Funny you should mention suicides . . .
Supposedly, three of the cast members committed suicide, but it has only been confirmed that the actor who played Torgo did.

You know a film is so phenomenally bad when the scientists apologize for it. Manos was a cinematic bloodletting.

8. What's even weirder???
Is that Quintin Tarratino is a fan of the Manos film. He even owns one of the original reels of it.

9. You have . . . like . . . the greatest user name EVER.
If only John had the charisma of any of the Von Erichs . . . we'd see a very different America now.

Welcome to DU.
