EP 339 | Spinach & Gore: Shocking Secrets Behind the Popeye Cult Horror Film! (w/Paul Stephen Mann)


Listen Later

This week, Mike connects internationally with filmmaker Paul Stephen Mann to crack open the can on Popeye’s spinach—and not in the way you’d expect. They dive into the challenges of transforming timeless public domain content into a fun, scary cult horror, wrestling with trademark restrictions and film-making pitfalls along the way. Ever heard of a Popeye horror film? Mike and Paul unpack the wild idea, explore the art of gore done right, and share insights on making films that are as daring as they are enduring. Tune in for a deep dive into creative rebellion and the unique process behind turning classic icons into modern nightmares. Enjoy the ride!
