Rating: - THE KEEP
I read the book & found it to be a great horror story. I have the VHS version of the movie & enjoyed it very much & found that it follows the book quite well except possibly the ending was slightly different. Scott Glenn was great. I would like to find out if this movie is also now available on DVD as many of the VHS movis have been converted to DVD in the latest format & audio techniques.
Rating: - Flawed film; destined for cult status
This early effort from Michael Mann is flawed in many ways. It seems like it was rushed into release, with choppy editing and an annoying score by Tangerine Dream. I read the book a while back, then saw the film when it first came out. With the advent of DVDs, I sold my VHS; haven't seen it in years. Still, there are brilliant images that have remained in my memory, and I would buy the DVD in a minute. A commentary from Mr. Mann, who has since become immensely respected, would be welcome.

Rating: - Film First For Fairness
The Keep was broadcast in two parts many years ago. I saw the first half and would have liked to see the second because I thought the first was distinctly good.

Rating: - It is what it is..... An undercult, cult classic.
Never mind what the "critics" say. They usually get things for free, and can't appreciate hard work anyway!
For the time period, "The Keep" is a great flick. The music is absolutely awsome. You can pick it apart all day long, but theres a reason its a highly desired and hard to find film.
See it, IF you can get your hands on it, and think for yourself for God sake.
Rating: - Cult Classic
This is a Cult Classic, the Atmosphere, the locations, the acting, The Story. I love it, I just wish they would put it out on DVD. Those that criticize the special effects, I mean come on... it was made in 1983.
