The Devil Ship Pirates. 1964.

A ship fighting in The Spanish Armada, deserts it's ppsition and heads towards a small village for repairs and the crew begin to slowly terrorize the residents.

Something a bit different from Hammer, a decently made swashbuckling adventure with Christopher Lee as the captain of the ship 'Diablo' that suffered damage and heads towards a small British village with his small crew that is left and end up tormenting those around them and have a decent sword fight towards the end.

This has always been a happy viewing for me, it may not be Christopher Lee or hammer usual Michael Ripper's best performances but they do their best to make it entertaining. The set peices especially the ship itself was greatly built up and designed very well.
