The motion picture "The Keep" question.

the cross means nothing... you watch too many movies

Wasn't the guy a Nazi? I remember that film. i think it was Gabriel byrne. great film and hard to find.

OMG The Keep is such a cool movie, I wish they would remake that one. Great music too.

No. It is not possible.

Demons & deities do not exist. Crosses stop nothing. Holy symbols are based on the bronze-aged superstitions of migratorial desert primitives.

as in most of these cases, the book is way,way,wayyyyy better than the movie....F. Paul Wilson was the author

look him up...you won't be disappointed

check out his Repair man Jack series

Such a cool movie. I can't believe no one has not tried to do a remake.

I actually have it on video. It sells for up to £80. My copy wont though,its been watched too many times. I recommend the book its totally different and about a vampire with some very cool scenes.

in answer to your question, it wasn't a cross, it was a talisman,( I'm drunk atm but I'm sure its actually the Hilt to a sword) that stopped he "demon" going beyond yge walls. The other guy was part of the creature. The "good" part. Its basically a story if duality,which starts with the nazis / German army.

Please, read the book as well.Its like two stories for the price of one.

thanks btw, now I'm gonna watch it tomorrow.
big smiles.

the demon is Molasar

That scene was in Fright Night followed by the vampire snarling "You have to have FAITH for this to work on me Mr, Vincent!"

Without Faith a cross is just jewelry.

Symbols in and of themselves have no power. It is the faith of the person who uses them that gives them power.

This is the typical underlying 'rule' for using talismans to block 'spirit' entities.

Unfortunately the Keep (the Movie) was based off a book (poorly in many ways) thus a lot of the understory is lost, including that the talisman was for (it was not the cross of Jesus) and the relationship between the entity and the individual, which was important to know that relationship to 'get' why he was 'absorbed' by the entity.
