Director Osgood Perkins has become one of the most exciting new voices in horror in a short time, and largely thanks to the mystery he builds around his projects. Few knew much, if anything, about Longlegs when it premiered in 2024, while The Monkey had little more than its titular mascot and an ominous, even glib tagline to get audiences in theaters. Both tactics worked, with horror fans now looking forward to Perkins’ next film with bated breath.
True to form, Perkins is keeping things as vague as possible for his latest. The director told Inverse that Keeper is “a relationship horror movie,” one set to examine the “disconnect that we all suffer in our relationships.” It’s set to reunite Perkins with Tatiana Maslany, who previously appeared in The Monkey — but other than that, and the film’s ominous first trailer, Keeper remains a tantalizing mystery.
