Title: Rathbone is good as Richard III
Review: Considering its presumed low budget, "Tower of London" is a fairly elaborate historical drama with Basil Rathbone superb as the scheming Richard III. Otherwise, there isn't much here to recommend. Boris Karloff is good as an executioner, but he has little to do but lumber about looking menacing, and Vincent Price (in his film debut) has a good scene as one of Richard's victims. Earlier in the same year, Rathbone, Karloff, and director Rowland V. Lee collaborated on the excellent "Son of Frankenstein." Lightning did not strike twice.
