Someone made "Manos, The Hands of Fate" into a play. [url]http://www.mthof.com/[/url]. One thing for sure, it's probably an improvement.

It's Coacoa Puffs, Bob. I have no idea why, but it fits the equation.

Wouldn't improving on it kind of take way the appeal?

That it's being run out of the same city where they make the Bibleman movies seems strangely ironic to me.

No, as a matter of fact, there has never been one single time where I've been mellow.

The only appeal Manos ever had was, "I should use up this aspirin before it goes bad. How can I give myself a huge headache?"

The fact that Torgo also directs keeps it in the "I'll do it all myself, no matter how badly" tradition of the original.

Not saying that this play, necessarily, has to be bad, but I can't imagine anything having to do with Manos being good.

If the play is accurate to the movie then much of it will consist of the master just standing center stage staring blankly at the audience.

I've always argued that the ending of MANOS does
have a bit of redeeming value.

Its overall kinda like a CALL OF CTHULHU RPG scenario,
but as done by 10 year old twinks.

No No No!
We all know this needs to be a musical!
MANOS : THE SONG OF FATE!
With such classics as ...
" Torgos theme."
" The Master is in da house!"
" Mike, your such a boob!"
" Its a quaint little part of Hell i call my own."
" Torgo got knees!"
" Can you ever have too many wives?"
And, much,much more!
