Alright-where to start?  Well- there's a prolouge! A bunch of Devil worshpippers back who know when chain a woman up, rip her blouse open so we can get a tittie shot, (enjoy it-it's the only one in the film), and cut off her hand....which crawls into a tiny coffin. Flash forward-
 Samantha Egger  is in Mexico with her husband at his mine. Never says what kind of mine-just a mine. A mine containing mummies and Devil worshipping s**t. Her hubby becomes possessed by the hand, seals his workers in the mine with TNT, and heads to Vegas.
In Vegas he's on a winning streak- and is kidnapped. He kills his kidnappers, yet sets himself on fire with gasoline. They bury him.
Aw f**k. To make a stupid story short- his corpse blasts out of the ground like shot out of a cannon, and cuts it's own hand off with a cop car door (!).  And possesses the cop!  Who makes a doctor cut it off him  (at gunpoint!).  The hand kills the cop and possesss the doctor-and so on blah blablah. OH! The hand does leap out an apartment building window and hitch a ride on Stuart Whitman's car (he plays a priest), and even escapes by hitching a ride on the under carriage of a freight train!
Oh! You can tell when the hand possess anyone-because you get a flash of lightning, and a cardboard shadow cut-out of the devil flashing across the screen.
It's actually a fun movie. Makes very little real sense. But it's bloody, and it ain't slow. It moves right along!

from reading your description I was sure I knew which movie this was, but looking at the trailer I'm sure I've never seen it.

looks like fun anyway...very grindhouse-y production values

Haven't seen it, like zombie#1, the trailer informs me.  Another one I'd thought I'd seen (hell, I saw THE BROOD when it was almost new!)  SAMANTHA EGGAR again!   TeddyR  I like when movies are full of trash while zipping along!

 just found it on youtube and started watching but it's in Spanish...(- but if the movie doesn't make much sense anyway, maybe that's not  a problem!)

THE BROOD is great, probably my favourite Cronenberg movie

I saw this on USA Network dog years ago. It recently popped up on Amazon so I added it to my never-ending watch list, haven't had time to revisit it yet.

I bought the blu-ray last year. It has two versions of the movie. One is called MACABRA and has less graphic death scenes (although,  think the running time is slightly longer).

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
