[edit] Plot summary
A pirate crewman (Sellers) kills his captain after learning where he has hidden buried treasure. However, as he begins to lose his memory, he relies more and more on the ghost of the man he just murdered to help him find the loot. This film marked a kind of return to Goon humor as Spike Milligan may have contributed some written material.
