फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
This movie isn't your usual horror-it's more about having fun than being scary. It's over-the-top, playful, and designed to entertain. The filmmakers did a great job capturing the 80s vibe, and their Popeye character was surprisingly solid. The deaths were definitely the highlight-bloody, creative, and full of dark humor. The final scene brought a lot of energy. I'd recommend this movie if you're just looking for something light and enjoyable, without expecting any serious scares. It's not trying to be serious, but it's a blast to watch. I had a great time, and it left me smiling. It's the kind of movie you watch for fun, not scares.
Absolutely nobody who puts this movie on is expecting an oscar winner nor anything serious. Why people are hating on this when it's been done deliberately that bad it becomes good and hits all the hilarity you could expect from a movie of this ilk... I'm sorry but this is definitely a 6 and will keep you laughing all the way through just for the sheer hilarity. They nailed this, fun night in. Only idiots would actually expect this to be a serious movie. What's not to like about a old aged pensioner who smokes a pipe fishing getting hit by an asteroid and then turning into a pot smoking serial killing meathead.
Shiver Me Timbers is yet another classic character slasher/horror movie, also one of several recent Popeye Horrors and this one is scraping the bottom of the barrel along the lines of the Mark Polonia shark movies.
There is almost no plot or story and there are loads of filler scenes to waste time. When you consider the movie only runs 73 minutes then that's not good. Acting is subpar across the board, editing is awful, music is too loud compared to dialogue, all the characters are annoying stereotypes, special effects are CGI heavy and very poor, lastly attempts at humour fall completely flat.
I wasn't expecting much but I hoped it would be a so bad it's funny b movie but it didn't work for me at all. Popeye The Slayer Man is far better.

Comets are nothing to mess around with.
I must admit that Popeye the Sailor Man is just about the last character I'd ever associate with the horror genre, so I was intrigued to see what the writers and director were going to do to make him scary. It was funny to see how they used his catchphrases and habits in news ways to keep the audience entertained. He made me laugh and shrink back in fear at the same time which is exactly the reaction I hoped I would have.
While I didn't need a lengthy explanation of why Popeye appeared, I did find myself wishing for more plot development here. The reason given for his murderous escapades never quite made sense to me, and trying to figure it out was a distraction from both the horrifying and the comical moments in this film. I would have chosen a higher rating if this wasn't the case.
It isn't necessary to be familiar with 1980s slasher flicks in order to enjoy this homage to them, but viewers who have seen at least one or two horror films from that decade may notice some cool throwbacks to the way things were filmed a few decades ago. Without giving away spoilers, I'm specifically thinking of the way rural settings were sometimes used to amp up the suspense back then and how isolation and fear could lead a character to make impulsive decisions that they might not have chosen if, say, they'd been in a city surrounded by other people.

Shiver Me Timbers was creative.
I have to admit that I harbored zero expectations to this movie, as I sat down to watch it. Yeah, I've watch two other horror movies with Popeye and they been pretty terrible. But I still opted to watch "Shiver Me Timbers" on account of it being a movie that I hadn't already seen.
But this movie was God awful. Writer and director Paul Stephen Mann managed to maul E. C. Segar's work to a bloody pulp. And not in a good way. Nay, this was horrible in oh so many ways. Sure, the script was pretty straightforward for a slasher movie, but the attempts at incorporating comedy just made it into an even bigger mess than it already was. So yeah, you're not in for anything grand here.
Of course I was not familiar with a single actor or actress that starred in this travesty of a movie. Sure, some of the acting performances were actually fair.
The special effects in the movie were exactly that; special. Most of them actually had me laughing at how utterly ridiculous it was. And the fact that Popeye looks like some kind of mutated meatloaf and Colonel Guile from the fairly laughable 1994 "Street Fighter" movie just didn't work out in the least bit. Sure, some of the gore effects were actually passable and fair enough.
Writer and director Paul Stephen Mann doesn't seem to know how beheadings work, as there are two of them in the movie; and one has the guy still screaming after the head is chopped off, and the other has a girl's eyes going left and right after her head is chopped off.
"Shiver Me Timbers" is seriously the worst of movies based on the Popeye character so far.
I wouldn't even recommend this movie to newcomers of the slasher horror genre. Nay, "Shiver Me Timbers" was just hands down a terrible movie. Do yourself a huge favor and skip this one. Don't waste 73 minutes on watching this dumpster fire. Some of us literally suffered through this garbage, so you don't have to; you're quite welcome.
If you're looking for a quick way to end a friendship, recommend "Shiver Me Timbers" to a friend and watch the friendship melt away like a guy put into a barrel of acid that just happens to be around (which actually also happens in this movie).
My rating of writer and director Paul Stephen Mann's abysmal 2025 movie "Shiver Me Timbers" lands on a very generous one out of ten stars.
