Directed by Renny Harlin, Cutthroat Island (1995) revives the golden-age pirate adventure with large-scale action and practical spectacle. Geena Davis stars as Morgan Adams, a daring 17th-century pirate captain who races rival buccaneers to find her fathers hidden treasure. Despite its notorious box-office failure, the film has since gained cult admiration for its ambitious stunts, sweeping sea battles, and spirited throwback energy. Från IMDB: A female pirate and her companion race against their rivals to find a hidden island that contains a fabulous treasure.

Morgan Adams and her slave, William Shaw, are on a quest to recover the three portions of a treasure map. Unfortunately, the final portion is held by her murderous uncle, Dawg. Her crew is skeptical of her leadership abilities, so she must complete her quest before they mutiny against her. This is made yet more difficult by the efforts of the British crown to end her pirate raids.
