A mother and father head to a new home to begin a family. Sounds simple enough, right? But in the world of HBO Max’s Raised by Wolves, the world is anything but simple.
The Ridley Scott-driven sci-fi series takes place 150 years in the future, when a world war between a religious cult, the Mithraic, and those who wont accept their life, the Atheists, has led to the Earth becoming uninhabitable. The Mithraic send a large space “Ark” vessel, Heaven, holding 1,000 settlers and military in suspended animation for the 13-year journey, to a distant planet, Keppler-22b, to begin resettling humanity. But they are beaten to the punch by an Atheist rebel, Campion Sturges, who converts one of the Mithraics’ levitating killing machines—a “Necromancer,” a female-appearing android—into a nurturing, maternal edition, known simply as “Mother.” Sturges pairs her with a generic service android—“Father”—and places them aboard a small craft, along with six human embryos, and sends them ahead to the planet.

Sonic Surprise
OVER THE YEARS I've reviewed hundreds of audio and video products covering all the usual bases. But not up to now a soundbar.
