Imprint Films Details Their 4K Blu-ray of Michael Mann's The Keep

Imprint Films has finally announced their 4K Blu-ray release of Micahel Mann's 1983 horror shocker, The Keep. 

They teased this release back when Vinegar Syndrome announced their 4K Blu-ray release back in November 2024. Talk was high on this one as we all wanted to see if Imprint was going to be able to top what VS was doing. Judging by the press release, I will have to say they are going to top VS by a country mile.  Release date is September 10th, 2025

THE KEEP (1983) 

Cross Replica Limited Edition
4K UHD + 2-Disc Blu-ray + CD
Imprint Collection #438

There are few cult horrors as legendary as The Keep. Directed by the great Michael Mann, adapted from F. Paul Wilson’s bestselling novel, the stories behind the gargantuan production have gripped horror enthusiasts for over forty years.

Alongside the 96-minute Theatrical Cut coming to 4K UHD in Dolby Vision, Imprint Films is proud to present a deep dive into the making of The Keep, taking you behind the scenes into its fascinating and tumultuous creation with brand NEW and archival Special Features.

This strictly Limited Edition packaging features a replica Cross, as seen in the 108 crosses on the walls of The Keep, meticulously reproduced from an original cross taken from the set of the film. Cast in zinc alloy and weighing 600g, the removable cross is nestled in the front cover of a premium Hardbox, coated in spot gloss crosses and featuring foil stamping.

This is a heavy, bespoke collector’s item, measuring 24 x 33cm, weighing in at 3kg, and comes replete with comprehensive physical extras:

• a full-colour matte laminated 27" x 40" folded print of the original poster;
• a reprint of the official five-issue comic series by F. Paul Wilson and Matthew Smith;
• a reproduction of the original 1983 Press Kit;
• a reproduction of the original 1983 Lobby Cards;
• a hardcover booklet, featuring 80 pages of photographs, original production material, brand NEW essays, and a reprint of a 1984 Fangoria article;
• a reprint of the First Draft Script;
• a 3D Lenticular Hardcase housing all four discs;
• a custom-made transparent PVC display case with anti-scratch film lamination.

We are also proud to present the worldwide debut of feature documentary A World War II Fairy Tale: The Making Of Michael Mann’s The Keep, a definitive companion piece that combines over one hundred interviews across the globe, and a treasure trove of extremely rare material.

The entrancing soundtrack to the film from pioneering electronic group Tangerine Dream is included on CD, a haunting fusion of synth and shadow.

Starring Scott Glenn, Jürgen Prochnow, Robert Prosky, and Ian McKellen, The Keep is a cinematic experience like no other, and the story behind the film is amongst the wildest in the history of Hollywood.

We are only pressing this very special Limited Edition set once, available now for pre-order at www.imprintfilms.com.au
