Notes THE KEEP was shot on location in North Wales, Wales, UK.
Bob Keen, a member of the creature crew for THE KEEP, went on to do the special effects for HELLRAISER and became one of the preeminent effects artists in the UK during the 1980s.
There are several alternate versions of THE KEEP. Some were cut for television, others were endings that were shot but never used. Many Mann films, such as MANHUNTER and LAST OF THE MOHICANS, also have alternate versions available.
