It is impossible to spoil this series because there is no knowledge gained from the first episode to the last. I normally don't mind open ended MOVIES, but documentaries should not be completely open with zero payoff. If you want to see the proper way of doing the open ended close to a movie then you should watch the documentary Making a Murderer because you are still left with questions, but left talking about it because there is still a payoff. The Keepers just asks questions after questions after questions with no answers to any of them. There are episodes that are good because they are the episodes that set up the questions and it is interesting, but when there are no answers you are left frustrated. I feel it is an important documentary (I use that word loosely) because it gets stories out there that I do believe to be true and important to tell, but I believe that I was blindsided by what this documentary was painted to be. This documentary has no foundation and it is not about a murdered Nun...that is just a story that was trying to be used to tie all of the stories together. This should not be called The Keepers it should be called Confessional: Our Stories

I LOVED this movie when I was a kid and it's so funny how my perspective has changed as I have gotten older. I was all about Sean Astin as the hero and that Kevin Bacon was the bad guy and now that I am older...I see Kevin Bacon's perspective and I am seeing all that he was doing to help Sean Astin and how Sean was just a crybaby. Crazy what time and wisdom does when you get older. If this is your first time watching it in the era you probably won't like it at all. The music doesn't fit the movie, but it fits the 80's era of teenage movies. I do enjoy the story and most of the characters actually make sense through the entire movie. Is the movie good...no, but is it great nostalgia...YES!!!
