We watched "The Keep" last night, a 1983 "horror" movie by Michael (Miami Vice) Mann. On paper, this sounds like an interesting watch: Nazis uncovering some strange power locked away in a Romanian castle, Gabriel Byrne as a Nazi commander, Sir Ian McKellen, and more smoke and soft lighting than "Manhunter," "Cat People," and "The Hunger" combined. It all kind of felt like an intense Duran Duran video. Unfortunately, aside from some visually interesting scenes, a little bit of gore, and a ridiculous monster, it's not very good...but, worth a view if you're into bad movies like i am.And, the soundtrack by Tangerine Dream was pretty awesome, so there's that.
