Love how much crimson is in this movie. More crimson in cinema please!

Tower of London

1939

★★★ Watched

The retrospective categorisation of this as a "Universal Horror" is tangential at best. I was expecting much more Karloff whipping innocents as lightning and hail whip the atmosphere into a frenzy. Instead it's mostly.... fencing? The battle scenes are fantastically staged for the period, and young hot Vincent Price is a treat, but there's far too much dragging of feet (and not the club-footed kind).

I love Julian Kostner and his stupid beanie.

Edit: I no longer love Julian Kostner, but I do still have a fondness for his stupid beanie.

Apparently I'm allowed to say that I've seen this now? It's really not allowed to be as good as it is, and holy shit does it have some BALLS on it. It's all in extremely bad taste, which works for and against it. Some of its most outrageous moments seem far too calculated in the, but the sheer audacity of some of the shit they get up to is enough to push this from being a complete eye roll. Ultimately…
