           I was quite impressed with the showing, particularly in how   
   they were able to riff the whole thing without reusing any notable   
   riffs from the original.   
      
           This was the first Riftrax Live I've been to since marrying, by   
   the way, and the first time my darling bride has seen Manos, though she's   
   heard about it in extreme from other folks.  (I think I've been tolerably   
   restrained in talking about it, myself.)  She survived in good mental   
   order, I believe.  At least we'll see.
