Pirates of Malaya (Italian: I pirati della Malesia) is a 1941 Italian historical adventure film directed by Enrico Guazzoni and starring Massimo Girotti, Clara Calamai and Camillo Pilotto.
It is based on Emilio Salgari's 1896 novel The Pirates of Malaysia. It was shot at the Cinecittà Studios in Rome back to back with The Two Tigers, of which it is the sequel. The film's sets were designed by the art director Alfredo Montori. The same novel was later adapted by Umberto Lenzi for the 1964 film Pirates of Malaysia.[1][2]
