I think that Torgo's character and the stupid dialog made Manos at least a bit "good". But it's certainly one of the movies I don't need to see again any time soon.

Things you can learn from this movie:

1.) You can survive watching blinking spots on the screen for more than 5 minutes without getting an epileptic seizure.
2.) In the future robots look like trash bins with legs and arms.
3.) In the future robots can read your mind. You just have to say "Help me!" and they know what to do.
4.) Future robots will make strange beeping noises while moving.
5.) You can actually shoot a 1.5 minute long scene in which someone is tying her shoelace, without it being cut out by the editor of the movie.
6.) You can actually hire a great actor (Angus Scrimm) to play in total crap movie.
7.) If you stab a pipe through the heart of a woman, she can live and talk without any problems and tell you about her "doom's day weapon".


8.) In the future, almost similar looking robots made of dustbins and cardboard will fight out endless wars of attrition, in which the loosing party will continue to broadcast messages about their impending victory.
9.) In a war, it never hurts to tell the enemy your resources have been depleted.

Btw: I strongly disagree with nr 5, RV stated it lasts for a minute, but of course I checked, and it is only for 20 seconds, so you guys need to stop whining about this scene :lol: :lol: :lol:

Seriously its not all that bad at all. I quite enjoyed it. It does seem pretty boring for the most part, but still had enough charm with the robots to keep me interested. And it finishes off with a lavish dose of violence. Stylish and different. Good stuff.
