Before Von Trier devolved into an inconsistent and at times embarrassing provocateur, there was The Kingdom. And decades later, it's still the mightiest, most surreal, and consistently intelligent slab of perverse dark comedy you're ever going to find. In our current climate of binge-watching, this masterpiece is something you'll want set aside six hours for and consume ravenously in a single sitting. Because for those who can suspend our disbelief long enough to smile grimly and knowingly at the ludicrous surrealism found baked into the everyday operations of our largest and most established institutions (in this case, the hospital system), The Kingdom is literally a untouchable accomplishment.
