Richard wants to be king, but when his brother dies that cannot happen without the death of his nephews. Well, you know, if all that stands between you and the throne of England is two murders, that's a small hurdle to cross for a sadistic madman.
This is a remake of the 1939 film of the same name, though the horror factor is upped here thanks to director Roger Corman. Ivan Butler calls it "libelliously unhistorical", but assuming we all know this is not a documentary, it is pretty sweet. Vincent Price as a hunchback with a murderous hand? Oh, good stuff!
While certainly not Corman and Price's best work together (see, of course, the Poe films), it's a little-watched piece that deserves more credit.
