Deep within the Keep is a secret and a curse, should anyone talk about it outside its walls, they will be dead within days. Is it the curse of Red Marie, a murderer on the loose in the impoverished areas of the city? Perhaps it is the mysterious old woman and her young aid visiting the city with bag in tow? Larksdale could not care less as long as his mustard shipment arrives on time, he has ambitions and plans, perhaps even take the crown for himself. There will be no kingdom to rule if the secret of the Keep gets out and it appears that Larksdale must put all his actorly skills to use to save the day. In 1941 in Romania, following the commencement of Operation Barbarossa, a motorized Gebirgsjäger unit of the Wehrmacht, under the command of Captain Klaus Woermann, arrives at an uninhabited citadel – simply known as 'the Keep' – with the aim of taking control of the Dinu Pass in the Carpathian Mountains. Two soldiers, privates Lutz and Anton, attempt to loot a metallic icon within the keep but accidentally unleash a spectral entity which kills them. The being, known as Radu Molasar, proceeds to kill five more soldiers in the following days and begins to take corporeal form. A detachment of SS Einsatzkommandos, under the command of sadistic SD Sturmbannführer Erich Kaempffer, arrives to deal with what is thought to be Soviet partisan activity in a nearby village. He executes three civilians as collective punishment and takes another five as hostages, despite Woermann's protests. Brindle, Steven and Brian Kerr.

Climate change is the result of more than a century of unsustainable energy and land use, lifestyles and patterns of consumption and production,” said Skea. “This report shows how taking action now can move us towards a fairer, more sustainable world.” In the 15th century, the protective function of keeps was compromised by improved artillery. For example, in 1464 during the Wars of the Roses, the keep of Bamburgh Castle on the Northumberland coast, previously considered to be impregnable, was defeated with bombards. [2] By the 16th century, keeps were slowly falling out of fashion as fortifications and residences. Many were destroyed in civil wars between the 17th and 18th centuries or incorporated into gardens as an alternative to follies. During the 19th century, keeps became fashionable once again, and in England and France, a number were restored or redesigned by Gothic architects. Despite further damage to many French and Spanish keeps during the wars of the 20th century, keeps now form an important part of the tourist and heritage industry in Europe.Paramount released a theatrical trailer and television spots in promotion of the film, which include various footage from the extended versions of the film that do not appear in the final cut: Among them are a longer conversation between Woermann and Alexandru in which Woermann says that the keep looks like it was built to keep something in; a longer version of the scene where Molasar is talking with professor Cuza for the first time (also in this scene Cuza asks Molasar "What are you?" one more time); Glaeken talking with Eva asking her if she found what she was looking for and if she expected to find him; Glaeken touching Eva's face while she asks "What's happening to me?"; Glaeken walking inside the keep with his eyes turning white; longer version of the ending where Glaeken is standing at the entrance of the keep looking over Molasar's fog/white smoke; different version of the scene (different visual effects) where Glaeken is walking towards the room where Molasar is waiting for him (in this alternate scene Glaeken's sword is covered with some glowing grey light). As far as dark worlds go, The Keep Within doesn’t disappoint. It takes an already dark world and layers a bit more complexity on it. I loved the characters . . . as much as one can love a group of despicable gray characters that would rather stab someone than consider their own insecurities and shortcomings. Which, you know, is a lot of love, given the sort of characters I prefer. The only real downside I found in this book is that the big, overall plot ends on mostly a technicality (a brilliant one, but still) and a world where the magic is a little too soft, where I didn’t understand much of it.

Another arc I would like to focus on is Mother Fwych, hitting the bottom after confronting Red Marie. Fwych will be forced to slowly scale from the very ground, trying to overcome her new disability.

While the term remains in common academic use, some academics prefer to use the term donjon, and most modern historians warn against using the term "keep" simplistically. [9] The fortifications that we would today call keeps did not necessarily form part of a unified medieval style, nor were they all used in a similar fashion during the period.

[12] Some interiors of the keep utilised the stonework within the Llechwedd Slate Caverns, near Blaenau Ffestiniog. Due to heavy rain, the film suffered significant delays in its shooting schedule.

[14]Last year author J.L. Worrad released the fantasy novel Pennyblade, which married together a world that didn't feel hugely far removed from our own history, and a world of magic, and feline elves. Whilst the first book set within this world focused on these beings, the Commrach, this time round Worrad is taking a much more human approach as we focus on the realm of Brintland, diving deep into the political conflicts and double dealings within the aristocracy.
