Início
A propósito do filme que vi ontem, Outpost, e que vai em linha com um filme completamente esquecido na gaveta de um qualquer produtor/distribuidor que se recusa a editar em dvd, O The Keep.
'The Keep is a 1983 horror film directed by Michael Mann and starring Scott Glenn, Gabriel Byrne, Jürgen Prochnow and Ian McKellen. It was released by Paramount Pictures. The story is based on the F. Paul Wilson novel of the same name, published in 1981 (1982 in the United Kingdom).
Despite being a critical and commercial failure, it retained a cult following, mostly due to the film's music score by Tangerine Dream and the film's mixture of Gothic horror and WWII elements.
The film focuses on a deserted citadel (the "Keep" of the title) in WWII Romania within which lies entrapped a dangerous and malevolent entity named (Radu) Molasar. When the Prussian Wehrmacht occupies the castle to control the Dinu Mountain Pass, Molasar is unwittingly unleashed from deep within the innermost recesses of the citadel by a pair of treasure-seeking soldiers and he consumes their life energy. A detachment of Einsatzkommandos then arrives to deal with what is thought to be partisan activity. The Einsatzkommandos' actions only fuel the demon's hunger for bloodshed and soon more troops begin to die in mysterious, gruesome ways.'
The KEEP - IMDB
Vi esta pérola nos anos 80 (of course!
) e fez mossa, tinha um estilo invulgar. Adorei o filme e tenho uma cópia pirata em dvdr que consegui no estrangeiro com uma qualidade razoavel. Chegou a existir uma especie de Lobbie para forçar a edição deste filme em dvd mas nunca conseguiram.
Quem já viu este filme? Espero os vossos comentários.
