Keeper 2025

Keeper (2025) is an American folk horror film directed by Osgood Perkins and written by Nick Lepard, centering on a seemingly romantic anniversary trip for a couple, Liz and Malcolm, to his secluded family cabin in the woods that turns sinister. The plot follows Liz (Tatiana Maslany), a painter, and her doctor boyfriend Malcolm (Rossif Sutherland) as they arrive at the remote cabin. Their celebration is quickly disrupted by the unexpected arrival of Malcolm's obnoxious cousin, Darren (Birkett Turton), and his date, Minka (Eden Weiss). Liz begins to feel uneasy, noticing red flags in Malcolm's behavior and suspecting he's hiding something, possibly a secret family. The situation escalates when Malcolm suddenly returns to the city, leaving Liz alone to contend with a dark, unspeakable evil that manifests as grotesque creatures and strange visions, particularly after she eats a drugged cake left by the mysterious caretaker, which Malcolm had insisted upon. The film reveals that Malcolm and Darren are centuries-old men who have been luring women to the property to feed creatures born from a pregnant woman they had fatally imprisoned 200 years ago, who granted them an extended lifespan in return. The final act sees Liz locked in the basement by Malcolm, where the creatures embrace her due to her resemblance to their mother, whose preserved head is kept in a jar of honey. Liz's eyes turn black like the creatures', and she ultimately gains control, finding an elderly Malcolm suspended upside down from a tree. She force-feeds him the drugged cake before drowning him in the jar of honey, concluding the film with her walking away. The principal cast includes Tatiana Maslany as Liz and Rossif Sutherland as Malcolm, with supporting roles by Birkett Turton and Eden Weiss. The film, distributed domestically by Neon, had its earliest theatrical release on November 13, 2025 (New Zealand), and was released in the US on November 14, 2025. Commercially, Keeper was considered a box office disappointment, earning a reported $4,810,361 worldwide ($4,187,242 domestic) against a small reported budget of $6 million. Critically, the film received mixed-to-negative reviews, scoring a 49% on Rotten Tomatoes with a consensus stating it is "More a collection of unsettling moments than an altogether cohesive story, Keeper is too half-baked to have much staying power despite a committed turn from Tatiana Maslany." It received a poor audience CinemaScore of D+.For home viewing, Keeper was released on Digital on December 9, 2025, followed by physical media (4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD) on January 20, 2026. The film is likely to stream on Hulu in the future, as it follows Perkins' other recent horror collaborations with Neon. Read More
