the devil-ship pirates (1964)

Christopher Lee returns as a pirate captain, this time in the employ of the Spanish as part of the armada. Soundly beaten and in need of repair they beach the ship in English marshland and convince the local village that the Spanish had won. But not all the villagers are convinced and begin a resistance moment.
Another rousing pirate romp with a suitably devilish Christopher Lee.
By this time Hammer had found a ship, but it never really moves and thus we have another entry to the landlocked pirate genre!
