Nazi-occupied Romania, 1941: In a small and grim village hidden deep in the mountains, German troops have arrived to lay siege. Despite being warned by the townspeople to stay away from a mysterious and intricately carved structure known only as "The Keep," two arrogant soldiers ignore their orders and break into the obelisk, hoping to find stashed treasure but instead unleashing an ancient evil force that grows stronger and more powerful with each new victim. After suffering great casualties at his hands, Captain Klaus Woermann is informed that the only person who might be able to defeat this monstrous and demonic entity is an elderly Jewish historian named Dr. Theodore Cuza, who is being held captive in a concentration camp with his daughter.
The legendary horror spectacle from director Michael Mann (Heat, Miami Vice), adapted from genre author F. Paul Wilson's New York Times bestselling novel "The Keep is a mesmerizing visual feast of supernatural terror, enhanced by a remarkable original score from Tangerine Dream (Sorcerer) along with stunning special effects from Nick Maley (Superman, Lifeforce). Featuring Scott Glenn (The Hunt for Red October), Jürgen Prochnow (David Lynch's Dune, Das Boot), Alberta Watson (Hackers) and two-time Oscar® nominee Ian McKellen (The Lord of the Rings film franchise).
