4.0 out of 5 starsMoral ambiguity on the Romney Marsh
By gustavus on 8 July 2015
Verified Purchase
The idea is utterly intriguing - a bad man becomes a good man after facing his own mortality and then finds that he can only effectively be a good man by utilising those very skills which made his fortune in his days as a villain. In Russell Thorndyke's original novel, the first of his Dr. Syn books, the moral reverberations of this set-up are, rather shockingly, ignored. It's unlikely, indeed, that Thorndyke ever even noticed them, and his yarn is simply a "jolly" swashbuckler peopled by characters considerably less appealing than he seems to have thought they were, and further marred by a quite appalling, and casual, racism. To a modern reader, it's a very hard read indeed, and this Hammer version (which changes Dr. Syn's name to Blyss) is altogether more interesting. As so often in Hammer movies, the society against which the villain-hero moves is an utterly corrupt one based on savage inequality, brutishness and hypocrisy; the agents of the crown use beatings and torture as a matter of course, and, in opposing them, Dr. Blyss is truly trying to serve his God. Peter Cushing's performance as this richly ambiguous figure is one of his finest, with Blyss's enjoyment of his verbal duels with the king's agent (a role in which Patrick Allen is admirably charmless) suggesting that the doctor has, for all his saintly selflessness towards the poor of his parish, not lost those qualities of ruthlessness and daring which once made him the most feared buccaneer on the seven seas. The film is a very smooth entertainment, slickly but unshowily made, and provocative as well as amusing.

5.0 out of 5 starsSyn is Blyss
By UK Scribe on 4 Aug. 2014
Verified Purchase
Essentially this is a remake of the George Arliss version of "Dr Syn" with the lead character renamed as Dr Blyss to avoid copyright problems with Disney who were making their own version of the story at the same time. Peter Cushing is excellent as the pirate parson with good support from a range of Hammer regulars and the whole film is fairly faithful to the initial Russell Thorndyke book on which it is based. No problems with the quality of the film on my version and an interesting account of the making of the film as an extra.

5.0 out of 5 starsGood, entertaining Hammer adventure
By Dizmog on 24 Nov. 2015
Verified Purchase
Good, entertaining Hammer adventure. Definitely not a horror movie, Captain Clegg is based on Thorndike's 'Dr Syn' novels (of which Peter Cushing was an avid fan) and rolls along nicely featuring some striking visuals, secret passageways and other clever quirks you'd expect in a movie about pirates & smuggling. And see if you can spot a very young Kate O'Mara in an early, uncredited role! Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 starsThere's something terrible in the Marsh
By Max VINE VOICE on 2 Sept. 2015
Verified Purchase
One of Hammer's 'adventure' films that they made to deviate slightly from being a solely 'horror' film studio. I think Hammer weren't given enough praise for these genre films (like Pirates of Blood River and Brigand of Kandehar) as they are really entertaining. Starring the ever present and ever wonderful Peter Cushing Captain Clegg is based on the story of Dr Synn. A captain and his crew show up at an English coastal town to investigate claims of the Marsh Phantoms terrorising the locals. Cushing plays Parson Blyss, a man of the cloth, with a dark secret. Its a really entertaining film with a great cast. Its only downside is that the story can get a little convoluted at times, but it doesn't ruin the film by any means. If you want a taste of Hammer's adventure yarns then this is a great place to start.

5.0 out of 5 starsLively Hammer with the Superb Peter Cushing.
By Ian Taylor on 17 Mar. 2015
Verified Purchase
A lively Hammer swashbuckler that is cheekily tarted up as a Horror film. A real pet project for the superb Peter Cushing, who clearly relishes his role as the title character and is able to subtly register changes in mood to add to the drama and atmosphere. Nice, too, to see Hammer regular Michael Ripper get more screen time than usual. Well worth checking out.

4.0 out of 5 starsQuite entertaining.
By Amazon Customer on 3 Jan. 2016
Verified Purchase
Quite an entertaining film, some similarities with Dr Syn, the Scarecrow of Romney Marsh but with a darker Hammer feel although different enough for you not to second guess the plot.
Personally I preferred Dr Syn but still worth watching.
