Release
In October 2015, Screen Gems acquired distribution rights to the film, changing the title from Home Invasion to Keep Watching.[10] The name was changed to Keep Watching, because there are other films with the original name.[11] The film was scheduled to be released on December 2, 2016 but was taken off the release schedule and was rescheduled for March 24, 2017.[12]
