About this movie

This superb gothic thriller will grip you with its combination of horror, romance and the supernatural. It is World War II in German-occupied Romania. Nazi soldiers have been sent to garrison a mysterious fortress, but a nightmarish discovery is soon made. The Keep was not built to keep anything out. The massive structure was, in fact built to keep something in... Scott Glenn portrays the stranger who alone must battle the supernatural force whose evil power is dwelling within. Ian McKellen is the medieval historian, Cuza, dragged to The Keep to unravel the mystery behind its gruesome killings. Alberta Watson stars as Cuza's devoted daughter, Eva, who falls in love with the handsome, heroic stranger.

Yes folks here is another example of studio tampering so one can only dream of how the original idea was to play out. Still, what we have here is a gothic nightmare of cruelty and retaliation set in WW2. The Keep is good but one can't help but wonder what was lost.
