Synopsis
Babylon 5: The River of Souls (1998) is a sci-fi TV movie set in the cult space-station universe, and you can watch it online on iFILM. A delegation of Soul Hunters arrives on the station demanding the return of an orb stolen from them — a vessel holding millions of trapped souls that are now straining to break loose.
As Captain Elizabeth Lockley (Tracy Scoggins) tries to work out who took the relic and why, Babylon 5 starts coming apart at the seams: holograms turn solid, reality flickers, and a slippery entrepreneur played by Ian McShane clearly knows more than he admits. Martin Sheen disappears under heavy prosthetics as the lead Soul Hunter. Janet Greek, a regular on the series, directs.
This is the fourth of the standalone telefilms from J. Michael Straczynski's saga, built around one sharp question: who owns a soul after death? Newcomers will miss some of the connective tissue, but for fans it plays as a direct return to a beloved corner of the galaxy. Stream Babylon 5: The River of Souls (1998) online on iFILM.
