How timely that I've recently unearthed this from an old recording project in 1996...

I don't even own a Blu-Ray player, but I think this may be the thing that tips me over the edge to save up for a PS3 (so I can continue to dork out on gaming as well)!
This movie gets way more attention than it deserves, and all because of MST3K, even though it was far from being the worst movie they ever had, and even farther from being the best show they ever did.

Will every frame of the movie know look like someone's last known "digital" photograph?
Now the ultimate in Fanwank would be if they took the HD version and overlaid a footage rip of Joel and the Bots over top of the final footage. THAT I would buy...
Dear Christ the ONLY way to watch this film is with MST3K. And then its still barely tolerable. Its one of the few movies that actually broke the bots as I recall.
This may require me to revise the "Manos Scale" movie rating system.... that image above looks almost *competent*! (O . o)
What can be the new perfect baseline zero for movie judgment?
Man, this MST3K was the only good thing in my chilhood...I heard a rumor that sequal focusing on Torgo is being made by the same guy as the original and is set to release in, like...2012, maybe.
The Torgo sequel is being put together by someone who had nothing to do with the orginal, but I understand he's trying to get people who were in the original involved in the new one.
EDIT: Reported on this very site: http://www.toplessrobot.com/20...
Same guy who played Torgo or the same guy who made Manos? Doesn't matter either way because they're both dead so I think that rumor might be fake.
I may actually need to get a Blu-Ray drive just for this movie. The MST3K episode is fantastic, but I truly love this movie on it's own. It's hard to define, but there's a lot of things that make this a completely enjoyable and entertaining film for me, and I don't mean ironically. I genuinely enjoy it as a film, not as a train wreck.
Like a full HD copy of the MST3K episode. They included a copy of the unaltered film; it only be right to return the favor.
I'm pretty sure the director's son did a documentary on it a few years back. You might want to check that out.
I think the only cast member alive is the daughter Debbie (who was the real life daughter of The Master if I remember correcty), and Hotel Torgo had one cast member with some great insight. As for behind the scenes footage, considering the POS camera they had needed constant winding for a minute of usable footage (and they seemed to have use every bit of it) I'd be surprised if any exists.
Proof that the worst thing you can do in the film industry is not make a great film or a shit film, but a completely sound but unremarkable film that no one will remember after it is released on home media.
I'm curious to see the restored work print solely to witness how this infamous cinematic Chernobyl would look in something other than a print that looked like it played in a grindhouse for years after being dragged frame by frame through a cat's litter box. And to those who have not yet seen the MST3K special edition of Manos, you've got to see the extra where the riffers sit around and discuss their experience with the film. They all look like former prisoners of war who sort of glaze over when asked to recount the horrors of their ordeal.
I'd like to point out that the real heroes are the police, firefighters and military service people....
Shit. Too soon?
na ah, the real heroes are the guys and gals who fluffed devastator's balls in their tbagging debut
Are we talking 1st Gen Devastator or the wrecking balls of glory that was the Bay Formers creation?
bayformers of course. i want my devastator balls with an extra helping of WTF!SCROTUM thank you very much!
