Christmas has come to the Kingdom, as our little band of spiritual warriors make their last stand against the forces of evil. With demonic doppelgängers, telephone menu systems controlled by the minions of Satan, and a climactic reveal for the ages, The Kingdom Exodus reaches its epic conclusion.
Picking up in the immediate aftermath of the first season’s startling cliffhanger, The Kingdom II sees the troubled hospital plagued by the rise of a greater evil. Masterfully harmonizing mordant humor and poignant pathos, Lars von Trier’s TV phenomenon scales new heights of white-knuckle suspense.
The hospital is rapidly deteriorating. What is happening in the deepest darkness of the Kingdom seems to be directly related to the neurosurgery department, and Mrs. Drusse draws closer to solving the riddle. Amidst his malpractice investigation, more skeletons emerge from Dr. Helmer’s closet.
After he poisons Krogshøj, Dr. Helmer fears another investigation will be launched so comes to his aid. Recovering from her surgery, Mrs. Drusse attends a meeting with the restless spirits, but not everyone’s presence is well received by them. Judith’s son continues to grow at an alarming pace.
Dr. Krogshøj’s life is hanging by a thread. Moesgaard manages to avert conflicts in the ward, but the Kingdom is still in danger of falling apart. After coming face to face with Satan incarnate, Mrs. Drusse must depend on Bulder’s knowledge about the deepest and darkest corners of the Kingdom.
