Get ready for a swashbuckling good time as Frank discusses films of the pirate variety! Though its arguable whether or not pirates are actually in either of these films.
In The Ice Prates (1984), a number of cyber-punk space pirates hunt water controlled by the evil space templars, in something that can only be described as an early Spaceballs. Starring Robert Urich, Mary Crosby, Michael D. Roberts, Anjelica Huston, Ron Perlman and Bruce Vilanch.
The River Pirates (1988) aka Good Old Boy: A Delta Boyhood is a coming of age story about a kid and his friends in the 1940s south during WWII. Playing games, causing trouble, war deaths, racism, and messing with you grand-aunt, what doesn't this movie have? Turns out it doesn't have much of a point. Starring Richard Farnsworth, Ryan Francis, Gennie James, Devin Ratray, Dule Hill, Maureen O'Sullivan and in one of her final roles Anne Ramsey.
