Description
The Kingdom
THE KINGDOM – Lars Von Trier, director of BREAKING THE WAVES, DANCER IN THE DARK, THE IDIOTS, etc. directed this mad soap opera for Danish television. It is often referred to as ‘E.R. on acid’, and this description is not completely off, though it strikes me as being very similar is spirit to the TWIN PEAKS television show as well. The series concerns a haunted hospital and its wacky inhabitants. It is filled with black humor and disturbing horror. The great Udo Kier appears towards the end of the first series.
