Manos: The Hands of Fate

THE WORST HALLOWEEN movies EVER!

Tonight: MANOS: The Hands of Fate

This movie invites riffing. Honestly, it gives you plenty of time to think of funny stuff to say and allows you to say everything you can think of without interrupting any dialogue.

Oh but if you DO interrupt anything, they will likely repeat the line over for you if it is important.

And it is surprising how much you have to pay attention in order to realize how bad it is. Not that it will help you know what’s going on.

Honestly, the biggest problem with this movie is that it’s boring. You have to make jokes and laugh at it because there is NOTHING going on.

I advise watching this on RiffTrax or maybe at Alamo Drafthouse for the group experience. Don’t go into Manos alone!

Tomorrow: If I had a better Plan together, this would be number 9, but sadly, it’s only night 2.

THE WORST HALLOWEEN movies EVER!

So last year I attempted to watch and review 30 of the Classic Universal Monster movies.

I failed. I stopped posting reviews after Son of Frankenstein, and stopped watching them roughly around Phantom of the Opera. So I pondered making a second attempt, but thought it was lame. Then this morning I came up with a better idea. Two actually, but I’ll save that other one for next year.

This year instead of the classics, we’re going with the worst.

THE WORST HALLOWEEN movies EVER!

So because I came up with this idea this morning, I don’t have any hard and fast rules. The movies just need to be horror or halloween related, and I can’t have watched the full movie before. Not going to peruse the bottom of the list on Rotten Tomatoes, but I will likely just go, “This looks terrible, lets watch!” I will try to go with some of the classic really bad films in there, but this will largely be played by ear.

I am open to suggestions though. The lower budget and face palmy the better.

Tonight though, lets start off by giving these movies a Hand for trying.
