Modern Horror Masters Praise KEEPER In New Trailer For Osgood Perkins’ Latest Nightmare

It wouldn't be an Osgood Perkins movie without a mysterious marketing campaign from NEON, with today bringing a terrifying new trailer ahead of Keeper's theatrical release on November 14 that reveals what modern horror masters Guillermo del Toro, James Wan and Damien Leone have to say about the Longlegs director's latest.

Keeper reunites Perkins with The Monkey star Tatiana Maslany, and also stars Possessor‘s Rossif Sutherland. Written by Nick Lepard (Dangerous Animals), the pic follows a couple as they escape for a romantic anniversary weekend at a secluded cabin:

Keeper sees Perkins back with NEON as part of his first-look deal with the genre giant, having launched a new banner, Phobos,  alongside Chris Ferguson. Under the deal, NEON will serve as the home for Perkins’ projects, which he and Ferguson will produce.

“People with bad intentions, sure, but also the person you share a bed with or no longer share a bed with. Ultimately, it centers on the duality that is both the fear and desire of being known and knowing. These notions of unease around the people in our lives, the people we are intimate with,
