The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

By 2043, a virus has wiped out most of the world's population. One time traveler, Cole, must journey throughout time to prevent the virus from ever happening and stop its engineers, the Army of the 12 Monkeys.

The show follows the journey of a time traveler from the post-apocalyptic future, (Cole) who uses a dangerous, untested method of time travel to get from 2043 to the present day. He is on a mission to locate and rid the world of the source of the plague that will eventually annihilate the human race. Assisting him is Dr. Cassandra Railly, a virologist who must decide whether to do harm in order to save the world -- regardless of the fact that she has taken the Hippocratic oath. The sci-fi series is based on Terry Gilliam's 1995 film, which starred Bruce Willis as Cole.
