Description:
For twelve years, Yellowbeard (Graham Chapman) has looted the Spanish Main, making men eat their lips and swallow their hearts. Caught and convicted -- for tax evasion! -- he's sentenced to 20 years in St. Victim's Prison for the Extremely Naughty. In a scheme to confiscate his fabulous treasure, the Royal Navy allows him to escape and follows him to the Spanish Main, where saucy tarts, lisping demigods and some awful puns and punishments await. Starring a who's who of comic cutups and cutthroats including Graham Chapman, Eric Idle, John Cleese, Cheech and Chong, Marty Feldman, Peter Cook, Madeline Kahn and more!!!

Yellowbeard, a comedy cast with the all-star comedians of the 1980s, is a unique, corny spoof on pirate films. Like a Mel Brooks movie, Yellowbeard's plot is a series of ridiculous events, รก la Airplane, circulating around Yellowbeard's (Graham Chapman) discovery that he has an 'intellectual' son. Brain versus brawn is the film's theme, as Yellowbeard is forced to take his kid on a booty-hunt, since the pirate's ex-wife, Betty (Madeline Kahn), tattooed the treasure map on their child's head. As the bumbling British, including Harvey 'Blind' Pew (John Cleese) and Gilbert Murvin (Marty Feldman), sail The Royal Navy Frigate to trail Yellowbeard's ship, The Lady Edith, The Spanish Main, captained by El Nebuloso (Tommy Chong) and El Segundo (Cheech Marin) follows in close pursuit. Three ships in constant battle on the open seas make for multiple comedic situations reminiscent of Monty Python. Directed by Mel Damski (Charmed, Lois & Clark), Yellowbeard has a made-for-TV cheesiness, though the talent of the actors, not to mention its off-kilter British humor, rescues the film from utter stupidity. --Trinie Dalton

This silly pirate movie was in my younger son's Easter basket. (Now that they've got too many stuffed animals already outgrown stuffed animals, they get DVDs for occasions like Easter and St. Nicholas Day.)
Ruthless pirate Yellowbeard (Graham Chapman) discovers that his son Dan (Martin Hewitt), on whose head he'd tatooed the map to his treasure, is an intellectual. Everyone from the Navy to his old crew is on a race to find the treasure, leading to the classic "stagger, stagger, crawl" ... Read More

A great cast, original writing and a Treasure Island based parody make this movie a classic. Marty Feldman in one of his best.

This movie is the ultimate level of the Monty Python genre, which also includes a host of other major comics, marty feldman and cheech and chong, to name a few. Their antics are beyond superlatives, the comedy is racey/saucy but genuinely funny. The sets are tremendous as is the acting, there should have been a sequel.

Monty Python, Cast From most Mel Brooks films, And Cheech and Chong. If you're looking for in dpeth plot lines and suspense you've come to the wrong place. If you want cameos and one liners that will make you laugh so hard you'll fart, then watch this movie.
Watch for David Bowie's appearance, and make sure you watch more than once as you'll too busy laughing at one gag to catch the next.
