Lexx

Sur Cluster, la capitale de la ligue des 20 000 planètes, un vaisseau avec le pouvoir de détruire les planètes attend son maître - "Son Ombre Divine". Mais le rebelle Thodin, qui sera bientôt exécuté, a aussi les yeux rivés sur lui et déforme le système informatique de la ville tout en préparant son évasion. Utilisant le chaos qui éclate, l'officier de sécurité condamné à mort Stanley Tweedle et «l'esclave d'amour» évadé Zev échappent à la capture et finissent par faire équipe avec Thodin ... avec l'assassin mort-vivant Kai suivant, avec l'ordre de tous les tuer.
