I always want to ask the folks who leave 1 star reviews: what were you expecting? You know the budget, you know it's going to be subpar acting. You should be hoping for some inventive kills, some semblance of a story... and maybe some nudity. ;-) This move is just that. Is it a "good" movie? Of course not! But nobody should choose a movie called Popeye's Revenge and expect some polished, well-acted, high budget masterpiece. I had fun with this one, in all its ridiculousness. It definitely had some issues... one victim gets "trapped" in a net. What follows is idiotic. If they would have had changed it to a bear trap, it would have solved about 3 problems. I also wasn't sure about the need to add the fog as a lore requirement. It wasn't necessary and it looks like they had the budget for 1 fog machine from Walmart. Other than that, it is what it is (just like Popeye).

I was really looking forward to this but after 15 minutes realized it was a mess on every level. The main character is completely unbelievable as a "detective" and she slogs through her dialogue. Most of the characters are wooden and going through the motions. Reactions to events are shockingly unrealistic (a guy falls to his death and our MC doesn't even blink or act startled. She jaunts over to the body and asks "Mr Goddard?" as blood pours from his head)

In another instance a man is lying on the floor, clearly having been knocked out but it takes our genius MC hours to notice a bump on his head and she's very proud of herself for figuring out he was attacked along with the murder victim. Ummm... wouldn't the guy know if he was hit over the head?? Just ask him!

As others have mentioned, the class system of the era is completely ignored. It seems Hallmark has period costumes on hand so they think that makes for a good period movie.

This mess proves that it doesn't.
