Holding a pirate party is not only very popular, but extremely fun too, and one thing that could be a great asset to your party is a movie or two. There are a vast number of pirate movies available that your guests would love and appreciate, and that would set the theme perfectly for some after-movie games or activities. While you're out buying eye patches, swords, bandanas, fake parrots and other party supplies, why not take a look at the possible movies that you could show at your party?

An obvious choice for a pirate movie at your party is Pirates Of The Caribbean. With three of the four (so far) Pirates Of The Caribbean movies out on DVD already, you could make your party a Pirates Of The Caribbean themed party. After all, who doesn't want to dress up as Captain Jack Sparrow? These epic adventures will take you on a whirlwind trip through the life of Captain Jack and really bring out the pirate in you.

Another choice of movie for your party could be the absolute classic Treasure Island. This movie is one of several adaptations of Robert Louis Stevensons' famous 1883 novel by the same name. There have been a number of remakes for this movie, dating back as far as the 1920's, so you wont be stuck for choice when it comes to finding and choosing this movie. This novel and movie are particularly interesting because Treasure Island is the sole reason that so many perceptions of pirates exist, for example, treasure maps marked with a 'X' and men with parrots on their shoulders are all related to pirates these days because of Treasure island, so not only will this movie fit in with your theme, it's also historical and interesting.

So whether you're a Captain Jack or a Long John Silver, your pirate party can definitely go down a treat with your guests if you include some well-known and entertaining pirate movies that'll have your guests 'Arrrrrr'-ing in no time!
