Keeper

About This Movie

Keeper is a slow-burn horror that really leans into the atmosphere. Osgood Perkins crafts this creeping sense of dread that builds as Liz, played effectively with a mix of vulnerability and strength, faces the cabin's malevolence alone. The practical effects add a layer of tangibility to the horror, making the unsettling moments all the more impactful. It’s not just about jump scares; there’s a haunting mystery that unfolds, revealing deeper themes of isolation and trust. The pacing is deliberate, giving you time to digest the ever-thickening tension. It’s the kind of film that lingers in your mind, raising questions about what’s real and what’s just in Liz’s head. Definitely a different take on the genre that sticks with you.

Focus on the atmospheric elements and slow pacing. · Consider a double feature with other isolation-themed horrors. · Look out for Perkins' signature style in character development.
