I’m never going to actually watch any of the live action Popeye horror films, but it is funny that we immediately got three of them

Best I can do ya is Betty Boop with a chef’s knife in the shadows.

But won’t you think of the poor Disney’s of the world, ya heartless bastard!
I’d like to get some fair use on betty boop if you know what I mean.
Cuphead DLC when?
Blondie 4 Blood: Part of the Poohniverse
Betty Boop grand stratagy game when?
I guess not even Disney has the money to extend copyright indefinitely
I think a killer betty boop movie would be great.
Betty boop detective noir film. That would be good. Make her a badass like Ana de Armas in No Time To Die.
