ABOUT JACKEY

Jackey is not only one of the last surviving actors of Manos: The Hands Of Fate, but the only one willing to talk about it. She is living in the belief that, “if I can’t be the best, I’ll make the best from the worst.”

Jackey played Debbie, the child star of Manos. Her dad, Tom Neyman, played the lead role of The Master and was Creative Director, making all the props and artwork while mom designed and sewed the iconic Masters Robe along with the wrestling wives ethereal gauzy gowns. Their family pet, Shanka the Doberman was cast in the role as The Master’s evil dog. Even her great grandmother’s handmade quilt made an appearance on the bed, making it truly a family film.

Jackey is a professional artist, actress, and the author of her memoir, "Growing Up With Manos: The Hands of Fate How I was the child star of the worst movie ever made, and lived to tell the story"

Manos has held a fervent fan base since it's public debut, November 23, 1993 on Mystery Science Theater 3000, and has won their annual Turkey Day award for favorite bad film four times over the years.
