Every history buff has a theory on how and why the Princes met their end. This movie plays with that and adds a supernatural bent.

Someone in this production clearly had a sentimental fondness for 60s-70s Hammer films and stylish Bava horror, and ran with it here. Kind of fun, that was. The title cards, the settings, the mood all brought me back to those days of florid (but fun) scenery-chewing actors and villains. Thy got the lighting right for the 1480s, with dim candles doing the heavy lifting while subtly using modern tech so the audience could actually see. The dungeon felt cold and dirty; with some unpleasant punishment scenes included. All in all, it wasn’t terrible; the effort was there. Adults may enjoy…but know that young ones don’t need to see some nightmare-inducing things.
