18+Season 2
Into each generation is born a creature of light and a creature of darkness.
Synopsis
Carnivàle Season 2 picks up HBO's Depression-era mystery — 12 episodes you can watch online on iFILM, where the hidden war between light and dark finally breaks the surface.
Ben Hawkins learns the name of his enemy and takes to the road, chasing Henry Scudder and the truth about his own bloodline. Along the way he meets long-lost kin, uncovers his mother's past, and is handed a blade said to kill the Usher. The faceless Management at last steps into view. Across the country, preacher Justin Crowe turns his radio sermons into a full movement and leads the faithful toward New Canaan. Sofie walks away from fortune-telling and drifts, step by step, to the wrong side. The two avatars close in — this time face to face.
This is the final season: HBO pulled the show, so the larger mythology never gets its ending — worth knowing going in. The craft, though — atmosphere, makeup, camerawork — outdoes the first run. Stream Carnivàle Season 2 online on iFILM.
