The Stand (2020–2021)

After an epidemic has killed the majority of the population, a few "chosen" begin to receive visions that give a mystical meaning to the events.

'The Stand' is a new adaptation of Stephen King's novel, the second one after the one from 1994. In terms of genre, it belongs to the horror style, with a slow pace and many religious elements. With a cast full of well-known names, this series is decent, but does not surpass the previous one and does not remain in memory as anything special. In addition, the last episode is added as a filler, without explanation, after all the interesting developments have been revealed.
