Captain Clegg (1962)

In the heart of the 18th-century, on the turbulent tides of underhanded deeds and low-sea skulduggery, Captain Collier and his diligent crew are dispatched by the Royal Crown. Their mission is to navigate the shadowy waters of a coastal English town, rumored to be a thriving hub of illicit smuggling and bootlegging. As they delve into the mystery, they find themselves ensnared by an even greater enigma - the chilling whispers of the "Marsh Phantoms." These spectral beings, said to ride phantom horses through the marshes, cast a pall of terror over the town, clouding the real issue at hand. Yet, amidst the insidious fog of fear and suspicion, Captain Collier's astute gaze lands upon the seemingly benign village vicar. The Captain senses that beneath the vicar's virtuous veneer lies a secret as deep and treacherous as the sea itself. The vicar, with his uncanny knack for conveniently summoning fortuitous ghosts to scare away the curious, increasingly draws Collier's suspicion. Could the vicar be cloaking the truth behind an elaborate masquerade of phantoms? Or is he merely a pawn in a game of high stakes deception? In this captivating tale of suspicion and secrecy, Captain Clegg weaves a rich tapestry of intrigue and suspense. It's a thrilling voyage into the uncharted waters of hidden identities, where nothing is as it seems, and every specter holds a secret.

Captain Clegg is an adventure movie featuring Peter Cushing and directed by Peter Graham Scott.
