Krakel Spektakel is a 2014 Swedish children's film musical directed by Elisabet Gustafsson, based on the character of the same name created by Lennart Hellsing.

The film was produced by Ulf Synnerholm for Filmlance International AB. The script was written by Torbjörn Jansson and cinematography was by Alex Lindén. The film uses live action with painted backdrops.

Plot

Annabell Olsson (Lea Stojanov) is a girl looking for the wizard who turned himself into a glass of lemonade and drank himself, 700 years ago (in the children's song "Trollkarlen från Indialand", with lyrics by Hellsing).

Cast

Reception

One critic found the film a delightful new creation based on various works by Hellsing, and also referring to classics like The Wizard of Oz, The Lord of the Rings, and Alice in Wonderland, while another considered it a failed attempt to profit from Hellsing's beloved characters.[1]
