This movie makes me feel strange


...but I love it. I've never seen anything like this. I get a pang of uneasiness, there's something quite sinister about this film... anyone with me?

This is a two year old thread but I'll respond. I don't find anything sinister about Popeye, but the lady in the birdcage made me feel uneasy because it was so weird and random. 

When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness.

You're so right
There's nothing like it
The reason is it isn't treated like a kids movie or a film based on a comic strip. It's filmed like... Well an Altman film! Lol which it is of course but, you know what I mean. It's just a little "off"
