Question
I have a memory of a film I saw when I was about 8 years old (1975).
I recall a ship of pirates who were harbouring a princess?. I remember a scene where the sky went very dark and one of the pirates pointed up saying "Look!". The darkening of the sky was caused by the masses of witches on broomsticks coming down to encircle the ship.
I then recall the princess being led out of the ship's cabin.

That's it. I have never come across this film again and have had no luck in identifying it.

I hope you can help me :)

Answer
Hi Anthony,

Sorry to say I've absolutely no idea what this film could be. Do you recall anything else about it, any actors, what era it was from?

In any case, I suggest you submit this question to Imdb.com's handy "I Need To Know" section here: http://www.imdb.com/boards/ - you will of course need to register if not already done so.

Also, the following two links might prove useful:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pirate_films_by_year
http://www.thepirateking.com/movies/

Other than that I can't really offer you any further help as such. I hope you find the film that you're looking for (is driving you mad). :)

All the best,
Ryan
