With The Griffin, a fantasy series from Germany is launching on Amazon, which takes you into dark worlds based on the book by Wolfgang and Heike Hohlbein. But is it worth it?
Can you remember the last time you watched a German fantasy series? Probably not. Because if we exclude old fairy tale series and animated, the list is suddenly very short. Rings of Power streamer Amazon Prime * wants to change that with the launch of Hohlbeins – Der Greif. Which is good news for genre-thirsty movie fans from Germany. We give you a spoiler-free first impression.
Amazon’s fantasy series The Gryphon: Stranger Things meets Supernatural in Germany
The basis for the fantasy series Der Greif is Heike and Wolfgang Hohlbein’s German book of the same name *:Mark Zimmermann (Jeremias Meyer) is considered a difficult loner. He has been in therapy for some time for his tantrums and a childhood trauma. He now attributes the inexplicable things he saw when his father kidnapped him and his older brother Thomas ten years ago to his mental illness. Until Thomas (Theo Trebs) shows up on his 16th birthday and reveals a dark family legacy to him.
The Griffin: Brothers Mark and Thomas
Fantasy fans who have seen Supernatural will surely see some parallels here: A missing father and two brothers who must shoulder their family’s legacy with the help of a family chronicle? Sam and Dean send their regards. But that doesn’t detract from The Griffin, especially since it drifts more in the direction of Stranger Things.
Mark opens up the fantastic parallel world of the Black Tower, which has several floors. Holes yawn in the sky and massive support pillars rise from rugged landscapes. Here, an overpowering being is forging cruel plans to subjugate the human world: the Griffin. It’s clear that Mark can’t face this threat alone, which is why he gathers fellow warriors like metal fan Memo (Zoran Pingel) and classmate Becky (Lea Drinda) around him in the Amazon series.
