Keeper, the dark new nightmare from director Osgood Perkins (Longlegs, The Monkey), is completely wrapped up in top secret fashion at the moment, with a mysterious marketing campaign and only a select few being given the chance to screen it ahead of release. The whole idea is to keep the movie a mystery, which is something NEON has gotten very good at.

But a handful of people have seen Osgood Perkins’ Keeper, namely a host of horror masters in their own right who have nothing but good things to say about the movie. We’re talking the likes of Hideo Kojima, Guillermo del Toro, James Wan, Damien Leone, and Bong Joon Ho, and we’ve collected together their rave reviews to whet your appetite for Perkins’ latest trip.

James Wan calls the film a “terrifying descent into madness,” while Guillermo del Toro calls Keeper “horror origami that skillfully folds into itself.” Hideo Kojima describes Perkins as a new “wizard of horror,” and Eli Roth compares Keeper to a “surreal David Lynch movie.”

Here’s a selection of rave reviews from some of today’s top horror filmmakers, which should be more than enough to get every horror fan hyped about the mysterious new movie…

“Once again, Osgood Perkins blends new “fear” and “surprise.” He is the “wizard” of horror.”- Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear, Death Stranding).

Keeper is pure Osgood Perkins – Horror Origami that skillfully folds into itself, shifting shapes: Mutating comedy into horror and horror into human drama.” – Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth, The Shape of Water, Frankenstein).

“A terrifying, ghostly descent into madness.” – James Wan (Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring).

“A twisted vision. Osgood Perkins further establishes himself as a formidable voice in horror.” – Damien Leone (Terrifier, Terrifier 2, Terrifier 3).

“Both haunting and hypnotic – Keeper is a sensory experience of pure terror.” – Fede Alvarez (Don’t Breathe, Evil Dead, Alien: Romulus).

“Jesus…Through his own distinct framing style, [Perkins]  frames the human form as fragile-on the verge of being severed. A natural talent for discomfort. Discomfort becomes anxiety, then transforms into fear. He has already established a style of his own. Our faith in the human body, in the human face, quietly begins to collapse. Alongside Ari Aster, a most uncanny eruption of talent.” – Bong Joon Ho (The Host, Parasite, Mickey 17).

“Haunting, creepy and beautiful. Like a surreal David Lynch movie. Totally original and unforgettable.” – Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, The Green Inferno, Thanksgiving).
