Scott,

        The inconclusiveness was, of course, due to the fact that Von Trier

had it in mind to do a sequel, KINGDOM II, which came out last year.  I'm

not sure if its on tape yet or not.  However there was a "Kingdom" website.

We must find out what happens after the "birth" of Udo Kier...
