Tower of London is a 1962 historical drama and gothic horror film directed by Roger Corman and starring Vincent Price and Michael Pate.

Aside from the historical setting, the movie is not connected to the 1939 film of the same name, starring Price, Basil Rathbone and Boris Karloff.

He secretly stabs George to death with a dagger bearing the crest of the Woodville family, framing the dying king's in-laws.

The ghosts of Clarence, King Edward and Mistress Shore haunt Richard, warning him that they will be revenged at "Bosworth".

Richard consults the Moorish physician and sorcerer Tyrus, who shows him visions of his future, including the prophecy that he will be king.

He manages to get the young Duke of York and his mother free, but he is trapped and captured with the child-king Edward.

Richard forces the Archbishop to give up the Duke of York, who has sought church sanctuary in Westminster Abbey with his mother.

Aided by his crony, Sir Ratcliffe, Richard then murders the two princes in their beds and proclaims himself king.

Buckingham confides in Ratcliffe his doubts about Richard's sanity, suggesting that they should join Lord Stanley.

When Ratcliffe learns that Stanley has been joined by the Earl of Richmond, he advises Richard to flee, but the king is convinced of his invincibility.

The king attempts to mount a horse, but is thrown and killed by a battleaxe held by a dead soldier.

In February 1961 it was announced Roger Corman had signed a "multi-picture pact" with Edward Small to make films for United Artists starting with The Intruder.

They were trying to come up with a fresh take on the Poe picture; they considered Nathaniel Hawthorne "and three or four other ideas" before deciding on William Shakespeare; Macbeth was not ideal but Richard III was.
