Watch Captain Clegg For Free

Crappy film

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Fun Hammer variation on the Dr. Syn story has Peter Cushing playing a reverend in a coastal village who is also a pirate named Captain Clegg, believed dead for years. Rigid naval officer Captain Collier (Patrick Allen) is sent to investigate smuggling and reports about "marsh phantoms" that have been terrorizing people at night. The rest of the cast includes Oliver Reed, Michael Ripper, and voluptuous Yvonne Romain, who could ignite the libido of any man. Not a horror movie but some spooky atmosphere that you might expect to find in a horror movie. It's an enjoyable film, thanks in large part to the Gothic horror touches and the always-exceptional performance of Cushing.

The movie starts of really well, with the creepy dream like scenes but as the movie went on, it kinda of drags a bit, Yes I did fall a sleep watching this movie last night. The morning, I watch the rest of the movie, the movie started to pick up again and middle part of the movie. This didn't really feel like horror movie, it felt more like Dark Drama movie, with some decent twist and turns.. The acting wasn't to bad from the whole cast, decent, some scenes do see a bit outdated.6 out of 10, loved first few scenes in the movie

Hammer Studios is responsible for giving us Peter Cushing, and he gives a masterful performance in this film that is a blend of horror, suspense, and comedy.Cushing is the ,Reverend Dr. Blyss (Dr. Syn in the novel), who came to a poor village and transformed it. As the leader of the town, he tries to protect them from the King's men.Character actor Michael Ripper, a veteran of more than 25 Hammer films, was excellent as the coffin maker.The story itself was fascinating, even if it was easy to guess the big secret once the King's men came to town.Well worth the time invested.

Night Creatures, a/k/a/ Captain Clegg is a pretty good pirate yarn. It was based on a 1915 novel by Russell Thorndyke titled "Dr. Syn". Later this book was, in 1936, made into a film starring George Arliss. Peter Cushing, Patrick Allen, and best of all, Michael Ripper, as Jeremiah Mipps, were excellent. Michael Ripper, in his best Hammer movie role, almost stole the picture from Peter Cushing. The movie moves along pretty well and there are enough twists to keep you interested. Peter Cushing shows off his athletic ability, along with his oratory skills. Oliver Reed is quite good in his role as the Squires'son, Harry. Beware of the marsh phantoms. Enjoy! John R. Tracy.
