Here’s a new trailer for the upcoming Popeye-insipred horror movie Shiver Me Timbers, which looks awful. But, maybe some of you will get a laugh out of it.
This movie is described as a “raunchy and gory slasher,” and Stephen Murphy is set to play the title character, with William Stead on board as director.
The synopsis reads: “Olive Oyl, her brother Castor and friends, go on a camping trip to see the meteor shower with Halley’s Comet. But the night turns into horror as a meteor transforms Popeye into an unstoppable killing machine.
“With thrilling 80s slasher references and comedic twists, the film combines elements of horror and comedy in a fresh take on both genres. Shiver Me Timbers pays tribute to classic slasher films while delivering hilarious moments, shocking scares, and nostalgic nods that will delight both horror and Popeye fans alike.
Here’s another synopsis that was shared: “In Northern California during the summer of 1986, Olive Oyl, along with her cinema-obsessed friends and brother Castor, embark on a once-in-a-lifetime camping trip to witness the dazzling meteor shower accompanying the arrival of Halley’s Comet.
“But what starts as a serene evening of stargazing quickly turns into a harrowing nightmare when a meteor from the comet transforms Popeye, into a terrifying and unstoppable killing machine.”
This is one of two Popeye horror movies coming out. The other one is titled Popeye the Slayer Man. But, some horror fans enjoy watching these ridiculous micro-budget horror movies.
The movie will be released on April 2025.
