Widely denigrated as one of the worst films ever made, Manos: The Hands of Fate has languished in purgatory for decades, but this restoration reveals it to be stranger, and greater than we thought. A family on a road trip takes a wrong turn and finds themselves locked in a house with a mad satyr named Torgo and the Master, a warlock who intends to add the wife and daughter to his demonic harem. Will they escape, or be forever wedded to the house’s evils?
