The Pirates of Malaysia (also known as The Pirates of the Seven Seas, or Sandokan, the Pirate of Malaysia) is a 1964 swashbuckler directed by Umberto Lenzi and starring Steve Reeves as Sandokan the pirate. This film was a sequel to Reeve's earlier Sandokan the Great, which was also directed by Lenzi.

Shot on location in Singapore, The Pirates of Malaysia is the story of a Malaysian rebel, Sandokan, who, with his group of renegades, tries to thwart an evil British general from forcing the good Sultan Hassim to resign in favor of the Imperial crown.

Plot

The cruel Lord James Guillonk, faithful of Queen Victoria, is the governor of the territories of Borneo and Malaysia. His archenemy is the Indian pirate Sandokan, who along with his "tigers" delivers continuous attacks against British armies.

This time, Sandokan collides again with the governor, because Guillonk is moving hunt against Tremal-Naik, a Hindu escaped by controls of English policy, who is in search of his lost love. Indeed, Tremal-Naik talks to Sandokan of a secret Hindù sect that worships the bloody goddess Kali. These fanatics are the thugs. This sect has in fact kidnapped his beloved, and so Sandokan is preparing for the new battle against Guillonk, who has just kidnapped the love with Tremal-Naik, mysteriously escaped from the dungeons of thugs.
