Rating: - Skullduggery on the High Seas
While this boxed set promises wall-to-wall pirates, this compilation is longer on mutiny, murder and mayhem on the high seas than on cutlass-waiving cutthroats - but don't let that stop you. There's plenty of maritime mischief and good ol' high-spirited adventure awaiting the viewer. Listed below is a summary of each of the ten films in the set, as well as the film's rating from a popular on-line movie data base:
The Black Pirate (1926) features Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., at his very best as a young nobleman who joins the pirate band responsible for his father's death. His plan to exact revenge gets sidetracked when, as the pirate leader, he captures a beautiful Spanish princess and is promptly smitten. This film has plenty of outstanding action sequences with lavish costumes and special effects to boot. A true classic!

Rating: - 10 Pirate Flicks of Public Domain Goodness
Pirates is a collection of 10 pirate movies that have only one thing in common: they are all public domain and as such it is possible for them to be presented in highly affordable collections. I paid $9.98 for my set and that comes down to about one dollar per movie. The way that movie tickets cost nowadays, you really cannot complain about this collection.
An added bonus of this collection is the fact that other than Long John Silver starring Robert Newton, hardly any of these movies are available on other public domain collections. Additionally, there are a pair of silent movies, The Sea Lion & The Black Pirate, in this collection. Given the scarcity of good silent films on DVD, this adds to the luster of this collection. All in all, Pirates is a great 10 movie collection.
Anyways, here is how I rate the movies in Pirates:
Rating: - Ten swashbucklers
St. Clair multi-packs offer transfers that are often a grade above many other DVD box set manufacturers. Sound quality is uniformly strong. On newer products, a small company logo appears at bottom right-hand corner of screen.
The PIRATES 10 MOVIE PACK features stars you would expect to find in a swashbuckler collection (Douglas Fairbanks, Errol Flynn) along with actors not known for this genre (Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney, Jr.). All in all, a fine set of lesser known pirate films.
HIGHLIGHTS:
THE BLACK PIRATE is a classic silent movie, starring Douglas Fairbanks. His acrobatic skills and deftness with a sword are quite amazing to see.
CAPTAIN CALAMITY (aka Captain Hurricane) is an early (1936) full-color movie that's constrained by a small budget, average plot and brief running time. This was also refilmed for Spanish-speaking audiences.
