An impending solar eclipse, a spreading vampiric virus, the mighty power of The Master, and a growing legion of strigoi on the New York City streets kept the protagonists of FX's The Strain busy throughout the first 13 episodes. Though viewers will have to wait until summer to see what happens next, they can revisit favorite episodes from the debut season when it hits Blu-ray and DVD this December.
"The Strain Season One
"Experience the first season of TV’s hottest, most blood-curdling sci-fi series – from Executive Producers-Writers Guillermo Del Toro, Carlton Cuse and Chuck Hogan – along with behind-the-scenes special features that explore the story’s journey from bestselling novel to hit show.
When a freak virus kills all but four passengers on an airplane at JFK, Ephraim Goodweather (Corey Stoll), head of the Center for Disease Control’s “Canary Team,” is immediately called to the scene. With help from a mysterious Holocaust survivor (David Bradley), “Eph” and his colleague (Mía Maestro) uncover the outbreak’s ties to vampirism. Now, the only way to stop the terrifying disease from wiping out mankind is to face its source – a sinister supernatural creature known as “The Master” – whose evil intent seems more powerful than any other force on Earth!"
