Torture porn is not dead as Paul Moore's Keepsake reminds us. Released on DVD February 21st, this film revitalizes a genre that has almost been forgotten. However, the brutal scenes of dismemberment, plier pulling dentistry, Achille's heel cuttng with sheers, scenes of female humiliation and submission will reduce the enjoyment (hopefully) for most horror fans. The final castration scene is the coup de grâce in a film that makes its gruesome point visually over and over again.
Janine (Sunny La Rose) is the only character given a name in the show and she is also the protagonist and damaged hero. Her car crash at night brings a mute tow truck driver (Robert Pralgo). He has a plan for Janine. After removing a curious cop from the situation, this killer...

Keepsake is a film from Stormcatcher Films that made an appearance at Screamfest 2008 and then apparently fell of the edge of the world. Currently being marketed by New Films International, Keepsake seems to be in a release limbo, with no release date available. Even the film's official websites have not been updated in some time. One review from Bloody-Disgusting calls Keepsake "something shitty," while Entertainment Review states: "the acting between the two leads is extremely good" (Bloody, Enter'). So while there are some ambivalent feelings on the film, from two different camps, now is the time to release the film on DVD to let fans decide if Paul Moore's film is worth a viewing. A trailer can be found at the film's website, below.
