Our take

Keeper is an MA 15+ horror film about Liz alone at a remote anniversary cabin after Malcolm leaves. Creeping dread, an unspeakable evil and a twisty reveal about the cabin's past drive the scares. Dialogue packs frequent f-word outbursts alongside romantic anniversary setup and a nudity reference in a creepy story. Wine gets a casual mention. Best for older teens who can handle psychological horror; too intense for younger viewers.

Uplifting themes

There is brief encouragement to keep trying. Overall the film stays in bleak horror territory No positive role models found in this title

Story (may spoil tone)

Liz and Malcolm escape for a romantic anniversary weekend at a secluded cabin. When Malcolm suddenly returns to the city, Liz finds herself isolated and in the presence of an unspeakable evil that reveals the cabin's horrifying secrets.
