The Wheel of Time Series, 2021-2025 - Amazon Prime

The Wheel of Time is an epic fantasy television series produced by Amazon MGM Studios for Prime Video. Developed by Rafe Judkins, the series is based on the acclaimed fantasy novel series of the same name written by Robert Jordan, with the final books completed by Brandon Sanderson after Jordan's death.

The story takes place in a world where time is cyclical and history repeats itself through different Ages. The only force capable of changing the fate of humanity is the Dragon Reborn, the reincarnation of a legendary hero destined to face the Dark One in the Last Battle. However, there is a great uncertainty: the previous Dragon went mad due to the corruption of the male half of the One Power and destroyed much of the known world. Because of this, no one knows whether the new Dragon will save humanity or bring about another catastrophe.

The series follows the Aes Sedai Moiraine Damodred, who travels to the remote village of the Two Rivers in search of five young people who may be the Dragon Reborn. Her journey places them at the center of an ancient war between the forces of Light and Shadow.

TRAILER 

PLOT

Season 1

The first season introduces the world of The Wheel of Time, where an ancient prophecy announces the return of the Dragon Reborn, a figure destined either to save humanity or repeat the destruction caused thousands of years earlier by the previous Dragon, Lews Therin Telamon.

The story begins when Moiraine Damodred, an Aes Sedai of the Blue Ajah, and her Warder Lan Mandragoran arrive at the remote village of Emond's Field searching for the person who may be the reincarnation of the Dragon. Moiraine believes that one of five young villagers may hold this destiny: Rand al'Thor, Egwene al'Vere, Perrin Aybara, Mat Cauthon, and Nynaeve al'Meara.

After the village is attacked by Trollocs serving the Dark One, Moiraine takes the young villagers away to protect them and begins a dangerous journey across the world. Along the way, the group faces deadly enemies, including Darkfriends and creatures of the Shadow, while discovering that each of them possesses unusual abilities.

The group becomes separated after escaping the cursed city of Shadar Logoth, where Mat acquires a mysterious dagger that slowly corrupts him. Rand and Mat travel with the gleeman Thom Merrilin, while Perrin and Egwene discover Perrin's strange connection to wolves. Nynaeve reunites with the group and reveals extraordinary healing abilities connected to the One Power.

As the season progresses, Moiraine discovers that the true Dragon Reborn is Rand al'Thor. Rand learns to channel the male half of the One Power, saidin, despite knowing that male channelers historically fall into madness because of the Dark One's corruption.

At the Eye of the World, Rand confronts the Forsaken Ishamael and rejects his attempt to manipulate him. After defeating him, Rand chooses to leave his friends behind, fearing that his destiny as the Dragon Reborn will endanger everyone around him. Meanwhile, the arrival of the Seanchan Empire introduces a powerful new enemy that threatens the world.

Season 2

The second season follows the consequences of Rand's public revelation as the Dragon Reborn. While some people see him as humanity's only hope, others fear that he will become another Lews Therin Telamon and destroy the world.

Rand attempts to hide from his destiny and struggles with the danger of using saidin, knowing that every use of the One Power brings him closer to the madness that destroyed previous male channelers. He encounters the Forsaken Lanfear, who reveals herself as an ancient enemy of the Light with a personal connection to Rand's past life as Lews Therin.

Meanwhile, Egwene and Nynaeve begin their training at the White Tower to become Aes Sedai. They learn more about the political divisions within the Tower and discover that enemies of the Light have infiltrated even the most powerful institutions.

Mat Cauthon continues suffering from the effects of the cursed dagger while trying to understand his own destiny. Perrin Aybara discovers more about his connection with wolves and joins the search for the stolen Horn of Valere, an ancient artifact connected to legendary heroes of past Ages.

The greatest threat of the season comes from the Seanchan, a powerful empire that invades the western lands and enslaves female channelers using magical collars called a'dam. Egwene is captured and forced into servitude, enduring psychological and physical torture while refusing to surrender.

The different storylines eventually converge in Falme, where the heroes fight against the Seanchan and the forces of the Shadow. Mat blows the Horn of Valere, summoning legendary warriors from history to join the battle. Rand faces Ishamael again and publicly proves himself as the Dragon Reborn.

By the end of the season, the entire world learns that Rand al'Thor has returned, changing the balance of power between the forces of Light and Shadow.

Season 3

The third season focuses on Rand's transformation from a young shepherd into the leader humanity needs for the coming Last Battle. Now recognized as the Dragon Reborn, Rand faces growing political opposition, powerful enemies, and the constant fear that he will eventually lose control of his abilities.

Seeking allies and answers about his destiny, Rand travels to the Aiel Waste, where he discovers the hidden history of the Aiel people and learns more about the ancient prophecies connected to the Dragon. Through his experiences, he gains the loyalty of many Aiel warriors and becomes recognized as the Car'a'carn, the chief of chiefs destined to unite them.

Moiraine continues guiding Rand while confronting new revelations about prophecy and the sacrifices required to defeat the Dark One. Her relationship with Lan is tested as they face increasing dangers from the Shadow and the Forsaken.

Egwene continues developing her abilities as an Aes Sedai and becomes connected to the world of dreams, Tel'aran'rhiod, while Nynaeve and Elayne investigate the growing threat of the Black Ajah, discovering that enemies have infiltrated the White Tower itself.

Perrin returns to the Two Rivers, where he must protect his homeland from attacks by Trollocs and Shadow forces. Accepting his abilities and his role as a leader, he becomes a symbol of resistance among his people.

Mat begins embracing his mysterious connection to the Pattern and the memories granted by the Horn of Valere, discovering that his destiny is far greater than he ever imagined.

Meanwhile, the Forsaken become increasingly active, with Lanfear and other servants of the Dark One attempting to manipulate or destroy Rand before he can fulfill the prophecies. The conflict between Light and Shadow expands as nations prepare for war.

By the end of the third season, Rand has fully accepted his identity as the Dragon Reborn, but the world stands closer than ever to destruction. The forces of the Shadow grow stronger, the Last Battle approaches, and the fate of the Wheel of Time depends on the choices made by Rand and his companions.

Plot (SEASON 1-2)

In present-day Dubai, centuries-old vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac grants veteran journalist Daniel Molloy a second interview, determined to reveal the complete and unfiltered truth about his life after believing that their first conversation decades earlier failed to capture what really happened.

Louis recounts his early life in New Orleans in 1910, where he manages his family's prosperous but morally complicated business while struggling with his identity and the expectations placed upon him. His life changes forever when he encounters the charismatic and enigmatic French vampire Lestat de Lioncourt, who becomes fascinated by him. Lestat seduces Louis emotionally and intellectually before ultimately turning him into a vampire.

Immortality initially appears intoxicating, but Louis soon finds himself trapped in an increasingly toxic and violent relationship with Lestat. While Lestat embraces predatory instincts and revels in power, Louis desperately tries to preserve his humanity by refusing to hunt humans whenever possible. Their conflicting philosophies create years of emotional manipulation, jealousy, passion, and brutality.

Their relationship changes dramatically when they transform a dying young girl, Claudia, into a vampire after a devastating tragedy. Although she is physically frozen as a child, Claudia's mind continues to mature, leaving her imprisoned in a body that can never grow older. Over the decades she becomes increasingly resentful of Lestat, blaming him for stealing her future and denying her a normal life.

As Claudia seeks independence, tensions within their dysfunctional family escalate. She ultimately conspires with Louis to eliminate Lestat, believing his death is the only way they can escape his control. After poisoning and attacking him, they flee New Orleans under the assumption that Lestat has finally been destroyed.

Searching for others of their kind, Louis and Claudia travel across war-torn Europe before arriving in Paris, where they discover the legendary Théâtre des Vampires, a theater secretly operated by real vampires who disguise their killings as stage performances. There they encounter Armand, the mysterious and ancient leader of the coven, who develops a deep connection with Louis.

Claudia quickly realizes that the Parisian vampires are governed by rigid laws and ancient traditions. Her existence as a child vampire violates these rules, and suspicion toward Louis and Claudia steadily grows. Hidden betrayals, rivalries, and conflicting loyalties culminate in catastrophe when the coven condemns them. Claudia is executed, leaving Louis emotionally shattered.

Consumed by grief and rage, Louis unleashes a devastating act of revenge against the Paris coven. Although Armand survives, the destruction permanently alters their relationship. The two eventually remain together for decades, but the interview gradually exposes that Armand has manipulated Louis's memories and concealed crucial truths about Claudia's fate, Lestat's survival, and the events in Paris.

As Daniel presses for answers in the present, Louis begins questioning whether his own memories can be trusted. Long-buried secrets emerge, revealing that every major relationship in his immortal existence has been shaped by love, obsession, guilt, betrayal, and the unreliable nature of memory. The interview evolves from a simple autobiography into a confrontation with the past, forcing Louis, Armand, and eventually Lestat to face the consequences of choices made across centuries.

Rate: 10 Stars - The series is fascinating. The richness of detail in Claudia's diary makes her story feel authentic and difficult to dispute. This universe is ultimately about survival—becoming a vampire does not guarantee a life of wealth, power, or safety. Even immortality comes at a terrible cost. Under Louis' influence, however, they were able to build a meaningful life together, despite the tragedies they endured. And, despite everything that happened between them, Lestat remained Louis' one true love.

The vampires in Interview with the Vampire live an unhappy existence because they see themselves as the living dead, burdened by guilt and convinced that every person they feed on dies. Over the centuries, the weight of taking lives forces them to question the choice they made and the true cost of immortality.

But if their victims are merely left severely drained of blood rather than actually dead, it changes the entire perspective of the story. Instead of carrying the burden of countless deaths, they would still be compelled to value every human life and avoid killing deliberately.

The healing power appears to come from the blood itself. When vampires are injured, they recover not because they are truly dead, but because the supernatural blood flowing through them possesses extraordinary regenerative properties. From this perspective, their immortality is sustained by the power of the blood rather than by death itself.

Even so, despite all the suffering and moral conflict, Louis ultimately thanks Lestat for giving him the Dark Gift—a sign that, despite everything, he still sees immortality as a gift rather than a curse.

There is still the question of judgment. I cannot say with certainty whether that judgment takes place while they are still living or only after true death. That uncertainty leaves room for interpretation and raises deeper questions about morality, accountability, and the consequences of their choices.

TRAILER 

Plot

Five years after the catastrophic impact of the Clarke comet, the Garrity family continues living in an underground bunker near Thule Air Base in Greenland (Iceland). Although humanity survived extinction, Earth's surface remains devastated by earthquakes, electromagnetic storms, radiation, and rising sea levels. John Garrity works as an engineer and explorer for the underground settlement, while Allison serves on the community's leadership council. Nathan, now a teenager, hopes to join the scouting teams that venture onto the surface. 

The fragile stability of the bunker comes to an end when a series of massive earthquakes causes the underground complex to collapse. Moments later, a gigantic tsunami destroys the facility, killing thousands of survivors. John, Allison, Nathan, Dr. Casey Amina, and a small group escape aboard emergency boats and eventually reach the flooded city of Liverpool, England. 

In the ruins of Europe, civilization has fragmented into isolated settlements, armed militias, and desperate bands of survivors competing for dwindling resources. The Garritys narrowly escape several deadly encounters while searching for another safe refuge. During their journey, they hear rumors of an extraordinary region in southern France, located near the massive Clarke impact crater, where breathable air, clean water, and vegetation have begun to return. 

Traveling across devastated England and continental Europe, the group faces violent storms, collapsing infrastructure, military conflicts, and ruthless scavengers. They receive temporary shelter from isolated survivors before continuing south alongside a military convoy determined to reach the rumored sanctuary. 

As they approach the enormous impact crater, the convoy is ambushed, forcing the survivors into a final battle. John leads his family through the chaos until they finally reach the crater itself. To their amazement, the impact zone has become one of the few places on Earth capable of sustaining life, containing breathable air, fresh water, and rapidly recovering vegetation. 

John sacrifices himself to ensure Allison, Nathan, and the remaining survivors safely enter the protected valley. His death allows the others to escape the final assault and establish themselves inside the crater. The film concludes with Allison and Nathan helping found a new human settlement, offering hope that civilization can eventually be rebuilt from humanity's last sanctuary.

S.O.Z: Soldiers or Zombies (Amazon Prime)

S.O.Z: Soldiers or Zombies (Spanish: S.O.Z: Soldados o Zombies) is a Mexican action, horror, science fiction, and thriller television series created by Nicolás Entel, Miguel Tejada-Flores, and Scott Rosenbaum. The series was produced by Dynamo and Red Creek Productions for Amazon Prime Video, where it premiered on 6 August 2021.

TRAILER 

Plot

The story follows Alonso Marroquín, a powerful Mexican drug lord who escapes from a maximum-security prison during a prisoner transfer in northern Mexico. At the same time, a secret military biological experiment goes terribly wrong, creating a deadly infection that turns soldiers and civilians into violent zombie-like creatures.

Meanwhile, journalist Lilia arrives in the state of Chihuahua, where she is picked up at the airport by Dr. Dávila. They travel through the desert toward a remote rehabilitation center known as Paradiso, unaware that the infection has already begun spreading throughout the region.

As the outbreak escalates, it becomes clear that the infected are unlike ordinary zombies. Many of them were highly trained soldiers before being infected, allowing them to retain combat skills, coordination, and tactical behavior, making them far more dangerous than traditional zombies.

The infection is eventually linked to a secret biological experiment conducted by U.S. military personnel operating from a military base in Mexico near the United States border. Their attempt to contain the outbreak ultimately fails as the virus spreads across the desert.

During the investigation, a doctor performs an autopsy on one of the infected and makes a shocking discovery: the zombie has two hearts. The rest of the body's organs appear largely normal, suggesting that the pathogen has fundamentally altered the circulatory system while leaving much of the anatomy intact. This finding helps explain the infected's extraordinary resilience and ability to survive severe injuries.

Marroquín, Lilia, Dr. Dávila, and the other survivors struggle to escape across the desert while being pursued by the infected. At one point, they attempt to flee through an underground tunnel, only to discover an infected zombie inside the tunnel, forcing them into another deadly confrontation.

As the situation deteriorates, American soldiers leave their military base and eventually reach Marroquín's house, where a major confrontation takes place involving survivors, military forces, and the infected. The battle demonstrates that the biological experiment has spiraled completely out of control.

In the season finale, although Marroquín survives the final confrontation, he is bitten by an infected zombie, leaving his fate uncertain and strongly implying that he has become infected himself. The series ends on this cliffhanger, setting up the possibility of his transformation in a future continuation.

This species is different because these Zombies are smart and organized, they also walk in the daylight, they are fast and have military tactics cause some of them were military personnel, their brain works normally, included they can communicate, but this does not stop them of biting, they do not care, even knowing the woman was pregnant, they killed without remorse. 

The Series ended with the Military personnel and the doctor in the Paradiso while Marroquino's team escaped by the tunnel.
