The Keep part 1

[GazGuitarz]

This is a great movie. I've been chasing it for ages, shame you've only got bits and pieces.

[HanzSygnal]

ON LINE? SCORE!!! I THOUGHT I"D NEVER SEE THIS. CHRISTMAS EVE PRESENT.

[deathcar]

I think this movie needs a modern remake...why not there's nothing else out there worth watching. 

[KrisHykel]

compared to the book, this movie is terrible

[LV75RDM]

I read this book after seeing this movie and enjoying the characters, but honestly this movie does not do the book justice. If you like this movie you will love the book and the orignal story.

[DeeDeeDeluxx]

Is there a full download for this film?

[DeeDeeDeluxx]

Is there a full download for this film?

[rexrex118]

I agree, I saw this film in 1984 in New York cable called WHT, I seen 20 times in that cable and was the last time i saw it. I never forgot the film. It have atmosphere and music is Beautiful.

[tenchimasake]

@Jonathan21526 It goes by the name "Stealing the Silver Crosses" or something, it's also on YT

[Johnlindsey289]

LionsGate must release this movie on Blu-Ray and DVD

[deadkennedys555]

Please see upcoming episodes of the series: 'Under the Spell of the Fasces' pt 1-16

[mrsplot0069]

[desweef]

@mrsplot0069

I recorded it from tv but i don't have it anymore

desweef

[deadkennedys555]

@mrsplot0069 To see the full film, 'The Keep', please see 'Under the Spell of the Fasces pt.19 The Keep'; the entire series deals with Nazi zombification techniques (Muselmanner) ...

[torstn]

@mrsplot0069 if you want it so bad why dont you look for yourself on the internet instead of youtube? you can wait of course if somebody ups it here but i dont get it if you want it bad its seems naturally to go look for it

[DavidFullam]

If Mann disowns the film and is the reason it has yet to go digital, then he can go to Hell. I'd sell my balls to get this movie out. The Cloud Molasar sequence (Gloria) is worth the price of the whole film.

[HaulinHearse]

I watched this a few hours ago on netflix. 

[fsfsfsfsfsfsg]

I loved the book :) just finished it!

[RevBigTim]

On netflix it says it's unavailable. But if you click the link to it's full page you can play it from there. Just added it to my queue.

[MECAGHIDRAH]

[vincentpricesnephew]

@MECAGHIDRAH i saw it on NETFLIX. maybe you are not looking in the right place. it was an "on demand" movie tp play off the internet

[aliesneo]

[kzfive]

If you have netflix, this movie is there to watch.

[Dark666DRAGON]

Hey Guys I have Some Good News for those who have netflix this is an able to watch on WIDESCREEN about time i had a look today awesome

[ashika1009]

Great movie. But 'part I ' it is not!

[WildBill6942]

To no surprise, Hollywood is remaking this movie set for a 2013 release.

[Jess91ism]

@WildBill6942 not sure about that, I think they are adapting a book with the same title by Jennifer Ehrgan (not sure if that's how you spell her last name) but not this film.

[WildBill6942]

@Jess91ism - it was reported by Variety and Hollywood Reporter that Michael Mann's "The Keep" will be remade for a 2012 release. It hasn't gone into production yet so that 2012 date might be pushed back a year. Apparently there are talks with Mann to come back to provide some input into the remake. Stay tuned.

[Jess91ism]

@WildBill6942 ah ok, just did some googling and your story checks out...i'm geussing the adaptation of Ehrgan's book will have to have a different title

[RevBigTim]

It's based on a F. Paul Wilson Book, the first book in the Adversary series. I have to watch the movie to just to see how it stands compared to the book.

[giulene]

a good movie

[worstalentscout]

tangerine dream is great !

"Brothers in death" TANGERINE DREAMS (1983 Michael Mann film)

[Drittkladden]

Thank you for uploading this movie!

I didn't have a chance to see before it got deleted six months ago.

[merowenger]

Dieser Film ist ein Meisterwerk, er zeigt menschliche Handlungsweisen sehr gut,

und er zeigt viel von der damaligen Zeit

Grandios

[smilingpug]

My favourite movie from May 1977 on until roughly March 2009 has been Star Wars and the rest of the films. My first experience with the Keep was seeing the softcover novel in this old mall near where I live. Now it is a big mall with a subterranean tunnel built to house an ALRT Transit System. Anyways, the Gothic look grabbed me the most. The rocky walls of the aforementioned. Probably around Spring 2009, I realized that I could watch THE KEEP over and over, more than I felt for Star Wars. Word!

[j2henning]

where is the dvd mjwiese

[PABLOHOLMEZ]

This was a great film. We used to watch it when teenagers on LSD ! Great stuff.

[AveryMarx0]

Great idea!

[geigerwarrior]

does anyone know why this movie has never been put to DVD?

[bERTRANDTUBE]

@geigerwarrior Maybe Michael Mann himself is not too proud of it? Don't know why really or why he shouldn't be proud of it. It's not a good movie as it has many flaws but it's one of those movies you do want to see again because it had high potential.

[dannyrose55]

why are you people so mean to each other?

[desweef]

It's from their live-album Logos.

[glowingcity]

@desweef it's crazy because they had two albums actually dedicated to this movie...the soundtrack and blue album call" Rubicon".....

[desdanova3]

The musical score is correct. There is some differences between the book and the movie. If anyone noticed, simply there is no bad TD soundtrack for any movie. There can be bad movies like the park is mine, or flashpoint, but the music is good and save part of the movie experience. In the other hand risky business and sorcerer are just great. Sorcerer is a masterpiece. Who can deny it?

[kingofmilwaukee]

I saw this movie 7 or 8 times at the theater when it came out. Great visuals and awesome soundtrack.

[Len1977gt]

Dude, you were lucky, I was only 6 in 1983, and I didn't see this movie or even know it existed until I saw it on TV in like 1994. BUt I would have loved to see it in the theaters in 1983, and been able to buy any of the movie memorabilia at the time.

[j2henning]

Tangerine Dream did the soundtrack

[bailong329]

I know that Europe is considered home to some of the Oldest Cultures but I wonder if outside the Druids if such mysterious places with no recorded ties to anyone really do exist. I would love to read a book on them and what the archeologists think they are.

[1975Quint]

Great book

[Nerfball6]

Wish this movie would come out on DVD!!!!!

[thrashgordon88]

Ok..... well the music seemed really out of place here. I mean, this is supposed to be a creepy, lovecraftian scene, coming across Molosar's lair and all that. instead we get some slightly mysterious upbeat synth. :|

[WatchRyder]

@thrashgordon88

I think it suits the scene perfectly. The quietness of the village, the mind of the Commander about to arrive, the calm before the storm.

Brilliant use of sound...

[leeroynaggins]

Wow. Friend of mine always said how cool this movie was. I ignored him until seeing this clip.

Now I want to see this...

[giles852002]

The Book is 10 billion times better than this film, and the music sets the wrong atmosphere for this film!

[MrTurningPointz]

Nah man, that's not a fair statement imo lol...

The music is SOUL CRUSHINGLY appropriate, just not 'normal' music for a horror film. I think it complements the movie perfectly.

The book had many failings, as does the movie - I'd look at them both independently, as to directly compare is going to create problems....

[Len1977gt]

Ummm, you are retarded.

[1UltraBastardo]

eNGLISH VOICE

Where am i from?

I am from you!

[1UltraBastardo]

Tangerine dream kicks ass

ALWAYS !

[STALKER7780]

parler francais bordel !!!!

[IONIESKYE]

I remember watching this 10 years ago It's a true masterpiece of cinema, it really is!

I keep meaning 2 buy it! No more WAR!

[UnkieMuzz]

i've done some research lately & here's what i've found: the theatrical version runs 96 minutes & i love it. there is talk of a dvd version (online petition to Paramount) that runs for three hours which apparently explains why it's so different from the book and why the ending seems so abrupt and confusing. who knows - we may see it soon. in the meantime, get any version of the film or soundtrack you can get your hands on, it's brilliant...

[Rasher1111111]

@UnkieMuzz If there ever was a film that deserved a directors cut, this is it!!! When you watch the abridged version(because thats what the released version is) you can tell that this was going to be a great movie had it had been presented in the original form Michael Mann intended it to be released in. I despair at the thought we might never get a chance to see the original cut of this, would be classic. A lot of movies these days are dishwater by comparison to the visionary movie making here!!

[kyokogodai]

@UnkieMuzz Well, we have been waiting 2 years, since you posted this. Do you have any idea on what else us fan can do, to try and get this released? I am getting old, and only God knows how much longer I will be here. I so would like to have this on DVD, before I go.

[sorrysirmygunisoneba]

Whats the song called that plays during the scene just before this part?

[mimosa27]

Oh my god oh my god oh my god

[saturnhexagon]

The film focuses on a deserted citadel (the "keep" of the title) in WWII Romania within which lives a dangerous demon named (Radu) Molasar. When the German Wehrmacht occupies the castle to control the Dinu Mountain Pass, the demon is unwittingly unleashed from within the innermost walls of the citadel by a pair of treasure-seeking soldiers and he gratefully albeit ferociously snacks on their life energy.

[loveupskirts]

i been wanting tso see this film for ages. thanks man.

[Watts660]

I saw this on video years ago and thought it was visually stunning. Can't understand why it's hated so much ? I wish they'd put it out on dvd sometime soon.

[hughesyyoda]

apparently they are making the directors cut for dvd

[mimosa27]

They are? Are you sure??

[lockerdogs]

try sell . com i got widescreen

[qtkeishta24]

I am pleading with the powers that be, please revive this master piece on DVD

[HerculesTAK]

I second that plead!!!

[lockerdogs]

i bought a copy on sell . com

its a cool 80's movie

[LouiseTopp]

stops and starts this clip does

[starrynightuk]

good call yoda

[Shinmeiryu]

omg, thank you so much for posting this movie, I haven't seen it in years, and unfortunately can't find it anywhere.

[RedOcktober]

yes... i remember this one... i remember this one well... definitely one of the most underappreciated films ever made...

is there anywhere i can get it on dvd... i'd even settle for a vhs...

thx for putting this up...

--Mike

[mimosa27]

Vhs versions on Ebay and Amazon

[g699a]

This has to be one of the most underappreciated movies of all time. It is magical and hypnotic. It is a real shame that I have to live with a 20+ year old VHS copy. Mann and Paramount should just do the world a favor and release it to the public domain. Let someone who cares produce a DVD.

[imPos52ible]

So true! Whatever it takes.

[BubbaZanetti666]

i heard there getting together to release the original 4 hour movie,with all the missing scenes.excellenct movie.dnt think its on dvd yet,bt its in the pipeline.

[HerculesTAK]

I totally agree with you; this is a true classic that only a few appreciated and even saw. I rank it as one of the finest movies I have ever seen...from the direction, the scenery right up to the music.

[mimosa27]

Yes. This movie has seriously affected my erotic dreams. They always have a haunting quality. :P

[DavidFullam]

My only complaint is that this clip does not contain the whole "cloud Molosar" scene. Hearing him say "Why are you...here?" is chilling, as is the music for it. Anyone know what that piece of music is called? I think it is the most beautiful piece in the film.

[sammo1313]

Great film,Great soundtrack, Great book, It,s about time paramount pulled there finger out and released a special edition dvd.

[Len1977gt]

this movie and the music are f*cking awesome

[Satanswehrmacht65]

special edition would be even better!

[tall32guy]

This movie is VERY strange and "disunderstandable", if it's the one I'm thinking about. I *never* got it.

[Satanswehrmacht65]

Michael Mann wasn't allowed by paramount to release his true vision!!! so they ended up with a cut down disjointed movie that don't make a lot of sense released straight to video! cool score by the Dream....special edition on dvd might get released one day maybe even uncut!

[imPos52ible]

I loved this movie from the first time I saw it! A special edition on DVD would be great. I really don't find it to be disjointed, Satanic. So, Mann had another version? Interesting. I wish I had it on DVD, dammit.

[wechmart]

es una exelente cinta, lastima que fuera presupuestada para 4 horas y se recorto por razones comerciales. Lo mejor de esta cinta es la histoira basada en el exelente libro de f. paul. wilson "la fortaleza".

[imPos52ible]

I'll add to the previous fine comments. I love it, too. 5 stars again, gave some thumbs up, & shared it. Excellent, desweef!

[ApocalypticRedIX]

i remember watching this on tv when i was only 9, it was so rare to see a movie like this on cable

[milpool21]

Got to love The Keep

[DetroitLove4U]

There is evidently a Bootleg version that has the track score "Brothers In Death" - Does anyone have it and/or know where I can download it. I have the remastered version straight from Amsterdam sounds great! I just need this score because it sounds great to me and I can't seem to find it. I also have another Bootleg copy but it doesn't have this score. Nonetheless, excellent movie all around love my 80's!

[jornelas48]

excelente pelicula obra maestra de tangerine dream a sido parte de mi desde el primer momento que tuve la fortuna de ver ...saludos desde tijuana mexico..

[imPos52ible]

I love this movie, & the soundtrack is awesome!

[Satanswehrmacht65]

yes it is!!

[landynut110]

Little snippet of information, did any body know that the film was made in a welsh disused slate mine here in the U.K.??

[starrynightuk]

I think it was a great choice! North Wales has some pretty magical places.

[RODERICKMOLASAR]

This movie and soundtrack have remained with me since first experiencing them in 1986.

[Satanswehrmacht65]

same as that!!! even found the locations in Wales where they filmed it & like a stalking lunatic visited them....! cool movie!

[RODERICKMOLASAR]

Wow, talk about "atmospheric" locations; that quarry in Wales is the ultimate. Michael Mann's people found a great location but sadly neglected to expend the same amount of effort in cutting the movie together properly.

[RIODEJANEIRO181]

They were going to put it together in a movie that was rumoured to be four hours but the studio interferred and cut a big amount of the movie.

[RODERICKMOLASAR]

Studio execs.: who needs 'em? But remember that this was made before Miami Vice came along and made Michael Mann a rock star.

[RIODEJANEIRO181]

I know studio exects justdon't know when to stop messing with films, and just let the director get his version out. I think after MV the studios let Mann get on with his films, as most of his work in the 90's to the present day has been written by Mann with somebody else, or by himself. So it's his project, whereas in his early working days as a director he took any project he could get, and were studio films, so they had high control over the final film. Way moe control than they really should.

[RODERICKMOLASAR]

The saddest and funniest aspect to this whole situation is that many if not most of these movie "moguls" don't seem to have ever been film directors themselves. I mean, like, What The Flock? How in Bog's Name can that possibly happen? All I can think is that there's got to be some kind of massive Good Old Boy network in place which allows these nimrods to rise to their own level of incompetence even faster than any other less-connected wannabe in HollywoodLand.

[RIODEJANEIRO181]

That's true.

By the way, did you see The Keep when it was first released...I'm only 15, and I love all of Michael Mann's movies, and I'm trying to find this somewhere on video as there is no DVD release. I've only seen the few clips of the movie on YouTube.

[RODERICKMOLASAR]

I saw THE KEEP when it first came out and have always considered it, with all of its obvious flaws, as one of my all-time favorites. I first read the novel by F. Paul Wilson immediately after the theatrical release and that experience only reinforced my infatuation with the film not just as it was but as it might have been. I only very recently went on to the sequels REBORN, REPRISAL and NIGHTWORLD, the last by far the best, in which Magda (Eva) Cuza and Glaeken make their final appearances.

[RIODEJANEIRO181]

I'm intersested in reading the books for it aswell...I'll need to look round when I get round to it.

[imPos52ible]

The book is "The Keep" by F. Paul Wilson. Excellent reading! Hope you find it.

[ApocalypticRedIX]

Surprisingly, this movie was shown on cable tv a couple of years ago and how ironic is that? if i was like 16 at that time , then i would've realized to tape it. but i was too young to know anything or how rare this movie is. SHIT!

[RIODEJANEIRO181]

It was on over here in England a few Christmases ago my dad said, but I didn't know.

[kovalmoog]

That movie was a 90 minutes Tangerine Dream's videoclip. How can be that there are no official OST of The Keep? Sergio

[sebahawkins]

muy buen video, excelente musica en una pelicula extraordinaria que se transformô en culto para quienes la vimos.Una clase de como combinar imagen y banda de sonido.
