Cutthroat Island is a 1995 swashbuckler movie starring Geena Davis and directed by her then-husband Renny Harlin, with a screenplay by Robert King and Marc Norman, and story by Michael Frost Beckner, James Gorman, Bruce A. Evans and Raynold Gideon.In 1668 during The Golden Age of Piracy, Morgan Adams (Davis), the daughter of the fearsome pirate "Black" Harry Adams, and her educated slave, William Shaw (Matthew Modine), are on a quest to recover the three portions of a treasure map hidden by Black Adams. Said treasure is hidden on the mysterious Cutthroat Island. Unfortunately, the third portion is held by Morgan's villainous uncle, Douglas "Dawg" Brown (Frank Langella), who killed his own brother to get the treasure. The crew of Morgan's ship, the Morning Star, is skeptical of her leadership abilities, so she must complete her quest before they mutiny against her. This is made more difficult by the efforts of the Royal Navy from Jamaica under the command of the self-serving Governor Ainslee (Patrick Malahide) to end her piratical career.The film also stars Maury Chaykin as John Reed, Stan Shaw as Mr. Glasspoole and Harris Yulin as "Black" Harry Adams. | |

Noisy Nature: A particularly jarring example. Among the ambient jungle noises on the small Caribbean island is a distinctly elephantine trumpeting. In the Caribbean. | |

Villain Ball: Governor Ainslee could load his own personal ship (A man-o'-war which out-guns both pirate ships and whose crew's loyalty is not in question) with his share of the gold and get out of there. Or he could hang out with an insane pirate, half of whose crew is loyal to their former captain. Who is still missing. | |

When Morgan drops the chandelier on the table at Mordachai place, a barrel (probably black powder) instantly catches fire and the whole frickin' place blows up. Then, about ten seconds later, Mr. Blair and a few Red Shirt show up to blow up the whole place a second time with 17th-century grenade launchers! Things keep blowing up for a minute, including some coffins and a well. With, you know, water in it. | |

Land in the Saddle: Geena Davis (not her stunt double) races through a building on the 2nd story and somersaults out a window, landing in the passenger seat of a speeding horse drawn carriage. | |

Co-Dragons: Mr. Snelgrave and First Mate Bishop are this to Dawg and act as his main henchmen, whether it be in carrying out his orders to kill someone, acting as reconnaissance (shown in both Spittlefield and later on the title island), or acting as the main officers on Dawg's ship, The Reaper, including overseeing battle preparation. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |

What the Hell, Hero?: During the escape from Port Royal, the British Navy sees the pirates running away and, in a moment of stunning indiscretion, opens fire on the port, blowing up civilian buildings with reckless abandon (and not landing a single shot, either. | |

Made of Explodium | |
| Cutthroat Island / int_e2d7b14c | comment |
Made of Explodium: Dawg's ship explodes spectacularly in the finale. Justified by all the black powder stored in it. When Morgan drops the chandelier on the table at Mordachai place, a barrel (probably black powder) instantly catches fire and the whole frickin' place blows up. Then, about ten seconds later, Mr. Blair and a few Red Shirt show up to blow up the whole place a second time with 17th-century grenade launchers!

| Cutthroat Island / int_e6b3e4f2 | comment |
Chain Pain: Snelgrave has a chain in the place of his hand. It proves to be his undoing, as he misses one of the heroes with it, and is taken to the depths with the anchor that it got tangled with. | |
