Synopsis
In a parallel universe, an undead assassin named 790 and a cowardly security guard turned outlaw named Stanley Kubrick steal the powerful starship Lexx from Shadow, a tyrannical demonic entity who rules the galaxy through his cult. They are joined by Xenia, a female with a body designed for sex but possessing high intelligence, and her robot head companion, Stan. Together, they embark on a journey across space as fugitives, unaware that Kai, Stanley's alter ego who is destined to destroy Shadow someday, lies dormant within him.
As they travel through the two universes, the crew encounters various alien races, faces life-threatening challenges, and forms unexpected alliances. Throughout their adventures, each member of the crew grapples with their own personal demons and secrets, revealing their true natures and driving forces.
