"The Pirates Of Blood Island" (1962)
-Christopher Lee

Plot: IMDB
A group of ruthless pirates attack a 17th Century Huguenot settlement on the Isle of Devon in search of treasure and will stop at nothing to obtain it.

Phantom's Review: A very different type of Hammer Film production. No supernatural creatures in this one, just a good old fashioned swashbuckler
Lots of action and fun. Christopher Lee is excellent (as always) as the one eyed pirate captain. (he would have made a great Captain Hook).
My only complaint about this film is, it's a PIRATE movie and there is virtually no ocean or ship scenes. It all takes place on dry land. Apparently due to budget constraints. outside of that , it's a very entertaining film..
