hi guys and girls. I need some info on a movie called THE KEEP. I dont think its a particularly unknown or obscure title but its one that seems to have slipped through my movie net. I believe it has some zombie content and a tangarine dream soundtrack, both of which make it highly desirable to me. I have performed searches to locate a DVD of this but i dont believe it has been released yet. Can anyone help? The name Micheal Mann appears in some of the search results so he may be the director, however, i cant find the movie in a list of his directing credits. HELP THIS HORROR MOVIE FREAK COZ THIS IS FREAKING ME OUT

IIRC, he did direct it. It's based off a novel by the author of the Repairman Jack novels...it was the book he wrote before The Tomb, the first Jack novel (I remember this because there's no Tomb in the bloody book, his editor just insisted on the title because it matched "The Keep," which was a hit.)

Great. Thanks for that. Do you know if its available on DVD, i think i need to own this movie. I love to get movies blind, you know, having never watched them before, and hope they blow my mind. I have a feeling this movie will do that...

According to Amazon, it's only out in VHS.

It seems like about a year ago this time this movie was in heavy, heavy rotation on cable. I think I watched it like three times on Starz in less than a week. If your interested, hunt down a copy of F. Paul Wilson's short story "Cuts" and see him get his revenge on Michael Mann for the way he directed the film version of his novel.
