Metal Hurlant Chronicles
On France 4
A visually striking sci-fi anthology that hops between alien worlds with a surreal, high-concept sensibility and moderate stakes per episode.
Metal Hurlant Chronicles is inspired by the popular comics anthology Métal Hurlant, which in turn inspired the well known fantasy magazine Heavy Metal. Each episode takes place on a different planet - fantastical in its own way - with the common thread between stories being a traveling asteroid that impacts the lives of all it encounters.
