The Kingdom

1994 · 275 min

A creeping, queasy hospital nightmare laced with deadpan absurdity, unfolding slowly like a bad dream you can't shake.

Overview: At The Kingdom, Denmark's most technologically advanced hospital, a number of strange and otherworldly events begin occurring, much to the dismay of its doctors and patients. A ghostly ambulance appears and disappears, the voice of a little girl calls to a patient in an elevator shaft, and a doctor's fetus begins growing at an alarming rate.
