NEON has unveiled a new teaser trailer for the upcoming horror movie Keeper, directed by Osgood Perkins. The film‘s story revolves around a romantic anniversary weekend that takes a dark and dangerous turn, unfolding from two different viewpoints. Keeper is set to premiere in theaters on November 14.
Plot Follows a Couple’s Isolated Weekend Filled With Mystery
The narrative centers on a couple, Liz and Malcolm, who retreat to a secluded cabin for their anniversary. After Malcolm suddenly returns to the city, Liz remains alone and confronts a terrifying presence that reveals the cabin’s sinister secrets. This chilling setup drives the film’s suspense and horror.
Main Cast and Creative Team Behind Keeper
The movie stars Tatiana Maslany, known for her work on Orphan Black, as Liz, and Rossif Sutherland, from Possessor, as Malcolm. The screenplay is written by Nick Lepard, who also wrote Dangerous Animals. Keeper marks the third collaboration between Perkins and NEON, following the critically acclaimed Longlegs and The Monkey.
Teaser Highlights Dual Perspectives and Mysterious Dialogue
The trailer introduces a unique storytelling approach by showing the events first from Liz’s point of view and then from Malcolm’s. The teaser conveys their internal questions about love and trust with the raw lines:
“Is there any way to keep love alive?” —Liz
“Is it his face I see when I close my eyes? Or only a mask that he’s wearing?” —Malcolm
“I think he’s/she’s a Keeper.”
