Production
Jackey Neyman-Jones, who played Debbie in the original film, launched a Kickstarter campaign in February 2016 to make a sequel to 'Manos', entitled 'Manos Returns'. According to Neyman-Jones, the sequel was not to be a recreation of 'Manos', but instead a "tongue-in-cheek" film that is set within the 'Manos' storyline; Neyman-Jones described the planned product as being both funny and scary, along the lines of 'The Cabin in the Woods' or 'Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein'.
The Kickstarter goal of $24,000 was reached on February 24, 2016, and filming began thereafter. The film stars Neyman-Jones, reprising her role as Debbie, her father Tom Neyman, reprising his role of The Master and Diane Mahree reprising her role as Margaret. Neyman-Jones and director Tonjia Atomic shot the film in western Oregon in the summer of 2016. The film had its world premiere screening at Crypticon Seattle on May 4, 2018. 'Manos Returns' became available on Amazon Prime in May 2020.
