An original idea drawing inspiration from real historical events, 'Hunters' is a story about a group identifying themselves as The Hunters and their quest to bring the remaining, underground Nazis in New York City to justice. And the premise for the series is not its only selling point! The Amazon Prime series features a star-studded cast as well.
