From playing the Duke of Clarence in 1939 to taking on the title role in Gene Corman's remake of Tower of London, Vincent had come a long way and made a name for himself portraying all manner of villains on the screen. And it was just a matter of time that he took on one of histories great monsters - the hunchback mad monarch, Richard III who ascends the throne through murder, torture and elaborate deception.
But this trite, studio-bound piece of crap was a mistake - period. Anybody disagree? Still Vincent does get to chew the cardboard scenery with the most outrageous, hammy performance to date.

Half Man, Half Demon! He Turned a Nation into a Chamber of Horrors!
