As more properties enter public domain, the more new ‘spins’ on classic (and previously family friendly) properties are getting new makeovers. We have had a couple of Winnie The Pooh films, theres a Peter Pan film on the way and also a couple of films based upon Steamboat Willy. Well now its time for a Popeye revisit with Shiver Me Timbers, from Paul Stephen Mann.
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.
