The Keep IS NOT A Horror Movie… Let’s Discuss

[@cobwebschannel]

Good stuff man! I hadn't considered your thesis statement before, but you make a good argument. And thanks for the shout out!

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Thanks! & absolutely!! Loved watches your video about to, very informative

[@unclegaga365]

The ending traumatized me as a kid in the 80s. The music is unforgettable.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

The music … 🤯🤯

[@jeffharrington-kb5nb]

Scott Glenn is Jodi Fosters boss in Silence of the lambs.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Ohhh yea!!! Damn it’s been awhile since I’ve seen that movie haha

[@mynock250]

The keep is a goofy fantasy movie, haven’t seen the new uncut version, but it has been on streaming for years (cut version). I recommend anyone watch this movie before buying this movie, it’s not for most.

[@warpathh]

This movie was a crazy ride and the visuals were incredible. Michael Mann really needed a partner to work on these types of films with him because there’s so much wonkiness going on that I suspect would have been worked out if he had more collaborators. The story and dialogue scene to scene doesn’t work very well, but the overall plot idea and the visuals in the moment are both good… It could have been a classic if there were more people to buffer and improve the final product IMHO.

The keep is a supernatural Thriller

[@michaelnelson7350]

I watched this on laser disc 15 plus years ago and can't remember much about it. After watching your review, I can't wait to get my copy and experience The Keep on 4K.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

@@michaelnelson7350 the transfer looks great!

[@fabulousbakerboy]

Tangerine Dream is awesome! I used to listen to the ost's for Firestarter, Risky Business and Sorcerer on repeat while being at work

[@metalgrinch]

Omg you got the mega spega 4k version that's worth $6,000 on eBay!

[@brentmadison4477]

I rewatched that boat shot on the ocean with that amazing sunrise 3 times kept rewinding it. I loved seeing this in 4k. Such a great rewatch in 4k. I have more appreciation now for this now. Will be rewatching this a bunch.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Dude that boat shot was perfect cinema 🤯😍

[@brentmadison4477]

It was jaw dropping yessss

[@AVAPopCulture]

I am very glad I got this today because this video makes me want to watch it even more lol

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Watch that shit man!!!

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@thelastmoviestanding going down tonight!

[@thelastmoviestanding]

💯💯

[@AVAPopCulture]

[@teamalmestudios6148]

The tangerine dream score was the single biggest selling point for me

[@popey129]

The keep is a trip. Great review. 😊

[@mrfloosak]

I remember renting the VHS from Music plus and watching it with my dad. A lot probably went over my head as a kid. Would love to rewatch but it sold out. I am getting to the point with sone of these limited releases where I’m just going to collect them digitally when they go on sale for $5. Scalpers buying them up are making them to expensive. There’s no way this movie is even worth $50 just to get packaging and a disc.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Scalpers are like fucking vultures on boutique sites 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@carloschavez1574]

That movie is the definition of FOMO 😂

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Facts!! 😂

[@Tom-t2s]

Horror with cool 80s music!👍👍👍

[@OhItsRoodie]

Never seen it but intrigued

[@steventhompson4278]

Picked it up on blue ray at a pawn shop a month ago paid $20 just because I'd never find again

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Wow nice! I didn’t know it had a Blu-ray

[@steventhompson4278]

@thelastmoviestanding might be a bootleg, couldn't find one on ebay. It has a different cover art then dvd and disc looks normal. But either way I don't mind bootleg for my collection but as a reseller I would never resell it just in case.

[@salmanmunawar1]

Sold! very helpful review, still waiting on this to arrive.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Thanks!🙏🏻 I hope you love it!

[@reyluna9332]

It played on cable a lot in the 80s.

[@teamalmestudios6148]

I’m not sure the 3 hour version ever existed, the effects supervisor died at the start of post and Michael Mann supposedly got denied funding to do more shooting. So I’m not sure the director’s cut exists at all

[@beyondz55]

Great points and I agree it's fantasy for sure. I love the silver crosses scene.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

@@beyondz55 dude that silver cross scene 🤯🤯🤯

[@damondelgado4603]

Whaat?!? Scott Glen was the villain in Backdraft

[@thelastmoviestanding]

Man I totally forgot about that 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@HomeCinemaEnthusiast]

I’ve never seen the keep or even heard of it .

[@thelastmoviestanding]

I dig it

[@TardyToTheParty24]

Man this video got me so hyped to watch this and I’m still waiting on my order from VS :( I checked out Manhunter and Thief a year or so ago and those are both great Michael Mann 80s films too.

[@warpathh]

We can’t even buy that version you show. I think the $50 Amazon pre-order is just a slipcover version. On eBay, that box set is going for over $100…

[@teamalmestudios6148]

No DVD, only VHS and Laserdisc

[@HomeCinemaEnthusiast]

Great upload as always , always watch your content after I’ve finished editing.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

🙏🏻🙏🏻 i put a lot of editing into this 1 haha

[@fabulousbakerboy]

IMHO Mann's best movie is Manhunter (1986). Also based on the novel 'Red Dragon', totally different portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in it (Cox) and an incredibly moody soundtrack (songs instead of composed music). One of my favorite soundtracks ever; 2 tracks provided by Shriekback are really phenomenal. You should check it out!

[@andrewbiehn1031]

I swear my is lost in the mail. I got the keep and the lamp on back griday and still not shipped yet wow. Good review though keep up the great work.

[@mrfloosak]

I tried to buy the Keep but it was sold out

[@thelastmoviestanding]

They still have copies on Amazon I think. VS had more on their site before they shut down for the month, so I guess we’ll see if they made more when the site is back up. Imprint also announced a 4K release of the film in march I think.

[@mrfloosak]

@ thanks for info. It looks like there’s a standard version coming in January but preorder is $50. I don’t know man, that’s a lot for one movie. I may try to find a used copy at some point or hope they release the UHD on digital.

[@thelastmoviestanding]

@@mrfloosak is the standard $50? 🤯🤯 even Amazon scalping people now

[@ChrisCFilmNerd1979]

Great shit, legend one of my all timers as well, to me tangerine Dream makes the films what they are

[@thelastmoviestanding]

@@ChrisCFilmNerd1979 thanks man! Yea legend is an all time great for me, & I love the tangerine dream score is amazing, but I really don’t think they mix hahaha to I watch the directors cut & listen to the soundtrack separately

[@brianharmon9405]

Had a dvd from umbrella and yes it was on streaming.

[@sethm.woodiwiss786]

Are you sure you don't get 4k movies sent to you for free from Vinegar Syndrome? Cause you just SOLD just about everybody who has watched your video. Lol!!

[@thelastmoviestanding]

@@sethm.woodiwiss786 lmao as much as I bashed the Congo artwork, I highly doubt they have me on their lists hahaha

[@RJAZ89]

"The Keep" is a weak Indy clone.
