Director Osgood Perkins, known for his successful horror film *Longlegs* (2024), has generated excitement for his latest project, *Keeper*, after releasing a chilling trailer. While Perkins is known for horror, the initial footage from *Keeper* suggests a suspenseful psychological thriller focused on a couple. Starring Tatiana Maslany (known from *She-Hulk* and *Orphan Black*) and Rossif Sutherland (*Orphan: First Kill*, *The Retreat*), the film appears to center on a relationship strained by old issues, brought to a head during a trip to a secluded cabin.
As a big fan of Neon Films, I’ve noticed they really seem to *get* what director Perkins is all about. And the new trailer for his film, *Keeper*, confirms it – things are about to get seriously strange. We’re talking full-on supernatural weirdness, and honestly, I’m here for it! It looks like they’ve learned from past collaborations and are leaning into the bizarre.
Keeper “If only you were dead” (Trailer)
The promotion for *Keeper* keeps demonstrating the imaginative approach NEON is taking with its projects and how they’re being released. Even the trailer’s YouTube title – “If only you were dead” – is incredibly striking and enigmatic for a major studio horror film. However, that’s likely exactly what fans will love.
Rather than a plot summary, the movie is being promoted with high praise from well-known horror directors like Guillermo del Toro, James Wan, Damien Leone, and Osgood Perkins himself. The film, *Keeper*, arrives in theaters on November 14th.
The film has primarily focused on the two lead actors, Maslany and Sutherland, but the latest footage hints at a much larger ensemble cast playing intense and unsettling characters. This suggests the story of *Keeper* will extend beyond the central relationship between “Liz” and “Malcolm.” Instead of a tightly focused romantic horror, it appears the film will unfold as a series of interconnected, potentially shocking scenes, similar in style to *The Grudge*.
Oz Perkins’s films, *Longlegs* and *The Monkey*, both surprised audiences due to a disconnect between the marketing and the actual movies. *Longlegs* began as a thriller reminiscent of *The Silence of the Lambs* but unexpectedly shifted into a supernatural horror, while *The Monkey* seemed to promise a gory, Stephen King-esque experience, but turned out to be a dark comedy dealing with family issues and growing older. Now, with *Keeper*, audiences are left wondering what to expect – and that uncertainty is becoming a signature part of Perkins’s style.
Ultimately, Perkins has created visually striking and unsettling scenes that really stay with you. For horror fans, this film offers a promising sign that 2025 could bring another truly memorable horror success.
Keeper will be in theaters on November 14th.
