Blackbeard, Terror at Sea (James Purefoy, 2005) : Blackbeard: Terror at Sea is the original and colorful story of this fearsome pirate who preyed on Caribbean trade routes and stars actor James Purefoy (Marc Antony in HBO's Rome). The two-hour high definition film charts the exploits of Englishman Edward Teach, an intelligent and charismatic leader who confounded the powers of England and Virginia as he overtook and pillaged 40 ships in two years, stealing hidden cargo and precious exports to and from the Caribbean.
Sea chases, cannon battles and swordplay were common occurrences for Blackbeard and his men, but his carefully calculated visage—displaying cutlasses, pistols, a giant beard and burning cannon fuses coming out from under his hat—was so frightening to his prey that they sometimes surrendered without a fight. In addition to colorful drama and incisive insights into its complex subject, Blackbeard: Terror at Sea unfolds against the tapestry of America's infancy and explores the surprisingly democratic life that pirates experienced at sea.
