This movie goes to show you that studio execs (for the most part) don’t have a single clue about what they’re doing . Can you imagine what the Michael Mann complete 3-hour edit would look like? This film is a underrated classic, Mann’s version would’ve made The Keep into one of the pre-eminent films of its era.

One of the most effective aspects of Molasar's design I think is that you don't really know what he is, or whether he is truly evil or not, until very late in the film, this film is a truly overlooked great, and worth KEEPing in mind.

When Molasar said his people where being slaughtered made me think he was some kind of Lawful Evil for a sec

"Where am I from, I am from you" great line and sums up Molosar as a demon of mans evil.

What I actually preferred in the movie, is the change about the main monstrosity. In the book he was once a man, who became avatar of Chaos, why Glaeken became avatar of Order/Light. It's kinda cliche. In the movie Mann made him this prehistoric, evil being of unknown origin. It's more lovecraftian and scary.

In the credits, Wilson thanked Lovecraft so, yeah, you could call this Lovecraftian. I haven't read any Lovecraft . . I just found out this whole thing has grown to several other novels apparently in a sequence, and I'm a little apprehensive about reading any more, as usually the whole thing gets watered down. Would any of you guys recommend Lovecraft?

This film and the Silent Hill series absolutely slay in the ambience department.

Favorite scene is when he confronts molassar amazing how a broken old man can have the courage to confront a being that is much stronger. Then the strong capable men always cowered the human spirit will never cease to amaze me.

I admit that I paid my $1.50 and sat in the theater watching this movie when it was first released, and I hated it. But, that hate has changed over the years. And I must admit that “The Keep” is truly an underrated, unappreciated & quite overlooked horror/thriller gem! I’m pushing 60, and have be a horror fan for as long as I can remember. In fact, the first movie I remember watching in a movie theater was the original Universal Studio’s “Frankenstein” & “Bride Of Frankenstein” double billing. I was about 5 at the time, and thought then as I still think, the Creation was beautiful, and I cried for him. I know you’re thinking that my memory has nothing to do with “The Keep”. And, you would be correct! But, it explains how long I have been watching & enjoying horror movies. I’ve seen masterpieces like John Carpenter’s “Halloween”, and stinkers like 1975’s “Bug”, which is one of those “SO BAD IT’S GOOD” movies. As for “The Keep”, I believe that this movie deserves complete restoration & a collectors edition release! Because, there are enough fans available to make the cost worth it!

Brilliant idea best chance is probably an anchor Bay for this type of special release. Other than the demand for a longer version I've had for 30 years. Also a NightBreed fan and if you look at process to get to the director's cut there you'll find the quality would not be up to specifications for Criterion. As the longer cut is probably a very low quality vs the master and not protected from natural emulsion degradation. as far as I know Michael mann still does not want to talk about the film so that's a big hurdle.

The director's cut will probably never see the light of day, it all depends on whether the deleted footage is still in the vault and if Mann becomes interested. Hell, it hasn't even been released on even DVD yet. Although I love the idea of a directors cut, it's unlikely it'll ever happen in Mann's lifetime if the footage still exists.

The actor who played Molasor is Michael Carter who also played Bibi Fortuna in return of the Jedi an underground passenger in an American Werewolf in London and the ghost of christmas future in a Christmas carol he looked more scarier in costume than Doug Jones did

The Nazis in the movie release this power finding it because they were looking for it themselves. From a man's perspective, the evil they bring into the world justifies releasing this power that will destroy everything it touches. When the creature takes the cross in hand and crushes it, it shows how meaningless the symbols of religion are to such power\darkness. The travler that ultimately drags the creature back behind the walls is the representation of the good in man's heart which is the only thing that can contain the darkness. But in doing so that good\light must locked behind the walls as well to contain the darkness. It so happens though the movie never showed it this man epresentation of good, was released when the creature\ representation of evil was released as well. Yin and yang. It's been awhile since I watched this movie. But I believe the Nazi Commander and the other guy are the physical representations of the battle one man is having. Does he embrace darkness or the light? Thiis is the battle taking place in his own heart. this is my own opinion and I haven't explained it very well but I believe this is what's going on.

Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode The Howling Man. Only instead of using sympathy, Molasar is using vanity & empty promises to tempt his way out of his prison. The scene where the man refuses to sacrifice his child & challenges Molasar’s authority with logic reminds me of Abraham when he was told to sacrifice his son, but if he had exercised some healthy skepticism.

I've always remembered this movie. One of the villains in Guardians of the Galaxy always reminds me of Molasar. Thanks for sharing.

The 210 minute original needs to be released.

@@jalenjohnson1662 Yeah, I don't hold my breath. There was a finished cut (or more) that was screened for test audiences. Now, where it is stored, how it is stored if it's even retrievable are questions that someone at the studio would have to care about enough to make the concerted effort. And since the restoration process would cost more than what they could make on the release, chances are slim to none. the 210 minute cut is probably just bound to mythical status.

A lot of it was not filmed. There is some that was done as a test footage, and of that, some was screened once when the movie was shown on Canadian TV (including a scene at the end which shows Magda and Glaeken sailing away together - he does not die, but veomes mortal, as shown when he sees his relfection)

Such a fantastically underrated film 🙌 Highly recommend checking out the original novel by F. Paul Wilson, too

Micheal Mann was hired by a studio to direct this film, he has nothing to do with the hiring process And besides why would he fire himself? Are you a fucking idiot?

@@ShadyLurker16 No need to be aggressive. The movie is indeed a project of Mann who wrote and directed it even though he did not produce it. This film was clearly important to him, even too much, that is why he should have detached himself a little by entrusting the realization to Carpenter who would have transcribed impeccably what Mann seemed to want to do. In addition Carpenter is more familiar with small budgets that turn into big movies.

They didn't know how to get the effects done because the VFX supervisor passed away during production. It was the studios fault as it is 99.9% of the time. A director like Michael Mann should always be trusted be a studio, he's one of the best.

@@sebastianfitzptraick7395 The studio didn't trust Mann because he went way past deadlines and heavily over budget. He couldn't even decide what Molasar was supposed to look like. Mann went from Thief (a small excellent movie) to more than he could chew, at the time. He eventually developed into a great director of big movies.

Saw it once and searched for a used DVD or VCR of it for years to no avail, glad you can now get it. Also could never find The Blue Max, but that one is common now.

Great film. There's a lot of the visual style of Carpenter's 'The Fog' in it.

「ザ・キープ」は公開当時から大好きな映画でした。 これは原作の上手さかも知れませんが「その城塞は至るところに十字架が埋め込まれていた。調査してみると、それは外部から護るためでは無く、内部のモノを外に出さないだった」という設定に、とことんカッコ良いと思ったのでした。 久し振りに映像を見て、やっぱカッコ良いなあ、と思うのでした。

Did i just watch Darkseid and Gandalf have a argument, Darkseid then be defeated by a man with a staff that shoots lasers, and then said laser staff man gets sucked up into light?.....Just making sure...

They need to re-release this film.

Awesome Movie, greatly under rated a classic.
