ISLAND OF LOST SOULS
2007 | Nikolaj Arcel Service Productions
A possessed little brother, a power-hungry necromancer, a spirit invocation device, demons of all sorts – problems of a thirteen-year-old girl. But Lulu knows everything there is to know about ghosts, plus she’s got guts and the right kind of friends. She’s heading for an otherworldly adventure.
Nikolaj Arcel’s screenplay for „Catch That Girl” (Klatretøsen, 2002; remade in the US in 2004 as Catch that Kid) showed how a children’s movie can have loads of fun playing with an adult genre. As a follow-up to the successful little heist, Arcel now directs a spine-tingling fantasy adventure full of supernatural SFX.
