I have a good copy of this movie on VHS and this was an excellent horror genre movie. With all the stars in this movie, I don't see why they don't release it on DVD. This is your classic Good vs. Evil flick with a twist. There are actually two evils in this one. If you like classic horror and you haven't seen this one, you're in for a treat. This will captivate you guaranteed!

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.

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. The film is, indeed, faithful to the book (well, as much as most films are) and retains the requisite suspense. Scott Glenn is a good actor, but he's not my idea of romantic leading man material. Jurgen Prochnow is a sufficiently bad Nazi, and good beats evil. How it happens is what's interesting, and I'm pining for a DVD. Anyone else agree?

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. I recently stumbled across some references to it, from which I learned that the film was based on a book, and that the book was by F Paul Wilson, of whom I had not even heard. Comment from sources I have come to find reliable was along the lines that the film was not up to the book. In that case, I thought, better to give the film a chance while the book is still in the post.
It can't have been the book, therefore, and I hope it wasn't just the comment, that makes me conclude that the film is far better earlier than later. I reacted to the early scenes this time round much as I did last time - I thought they were excellent, and I was at that stage prepared to award the film 5 stars. 4-star standard overtook the production around half way, but by the end I could not see my way, even on some smoothed-out average evaluation, ...

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.
