Neither examples are from the film itself.


* The ''Manos'' episode of ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' is widely considered the show's best episode by numerous fans; it's also the most well-known episode of the show by a wide margin.
--> '''The ''Guys''''': [[Film/{{Aliens}} It's a bug hunt man! Game over man! Game over!]]
* Betty Pierce's November 16, 1966 [[http://horrorfanzine.com/manos-the-hands-of-fate/manos-review-by-betty-pierce/ movie review]] from the ''El Paso Herald-Post'' -- likely the '''only''' pre-[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]] review of ''Manos'' -- is loaded to the core with hilarious snark. Some of the highlights include pointing out continuity errors and making poor Torgo out to be the film's hero. The review ends, "[[{{Troll}} Someone is spoofing us]]."
--> '''Reviewer:''' "The story concerns a luckless young man with his underwear so bunched up he can hardly get around and no time to straighten it out....."



* Another unintentional one: When Mike and Margaret see the portrait of the Master for the first time, the camera, rather than enlightening the audience, gives us a long shot of two grown adults staring dumbfounded at a painting. The movie then tops itself as Torgo comes shuffling [[FunnyBackgroundEvent through the shot, carrying the luggage.]]
