Production

Jackey Neyman-Jones, who played Debbie in the original film, launched a Kickstarter campaign in February 2016 to make a sequel. She said it was not to be a recreation, but a "tongue-in-cheek" setting within the original storyline. She described the planned product as both funny and scary, like The Cabin in the Woods or Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.[2][3][4]

The Kickstarter goal of $24,000 was reached on February 24, 2016, and filming began. Neyman-Jones reprised her role as Debbie, her father Tom Neyman reprised his role of the Master, and Diane Mahree reprised her role as Margaret. Neyman-Jones and director Tonjia Atomic shot the film in western Oregon[5] in mid-2016. Its world premiere screening was at Crypticon Seattle on May 4, 2018.[6] Manos Returns entered Amazon Prime streaming in May 2020.[7]
