The Pirate King

About This Movie

'The Pirate King' is a comedy-drama film that explores themes of redemption and personal struggle. Released by Pine Bay Pictures and Morning Moon Productions, it tells the story of a Marine veteran navigating PTSD and addiction through the world of pirate reenactments.

This film has had a bit of a rocky format history, with limited releases that make finding a decent copy somewhat tricky. Its collector interest stems from its unique premise and the engaging performances; it’s not every day you see a film about pirate reenactors serving as a backdrop for such serious themes. There’s definitely a niche audience for it among those who appreciate offbeat narratives, and it’s definitely worth keeping an eye out for at local film festivals or collector's shows.
