In Popeye the Slayer Man, “a group of friends sneak into an abandoned spinach canning factory to film a documentary on the legend of the Sailor Man, who is said to haunt the factory.”

“Popeye the Slayer Man’s dark reimagining of the classic Popeye character not only delivers a fresh take on a beloved icon but also showcases its thrilling storytelling and bold visual style. We’re thrilled to bring this unique and exciting film to EFM, offering buyers something truly unexpected and unforgettable,” said Jessica Russo, COO, Productions and Acquisitions at VMI.

Popeye the Slayer Man stars Sean Michael Conway, Elena Juliano, Mabel Thomas, Marie-Louise Boisnier, Jeff Thomas, and Steven McCormack, along with Angela Relucio (Code Black, The Cabining) and Sarah Nicklin (Nun of That, The Black Mass).

Jason Stephens plays the title role of the murderous Popeye. Robert Michael Ryan (Ouija Witch) directs the film from a screenplay by John Doolan (Remains).

“We went old-school with this movie, using practical effects for the horror,” Ryan teases. “We wanted the film to have a more visceral feel reminiscent of the classic horror films of the ‘80s.”
