Dexter has come a long way since 2006. If you followed the series throughout, a lot of viewers were left with unanswered questions. Personally, I did not hate the ending because it could mean that Dexter can make a return. And this return is not only well worth the wait, but completely deserving!
The contrast of the new setting is refreshing-from the warm and sunny Miami, to the cold and snowy Upstate New York. I loved the return of Deb, as well as the many other characters the show pays homage to. Every actor and new character is superb, especially the lead supporting actress-Julia Jones. Michael C Hall seems to have aged seasonably well into his acting career since the original Dexter. This makes it seem so much *scarier* and *exciting* this time around. The serial killer character is based off of a real story, which makes the story even creepier. The reboot made me rewatch the original series, as I notice all the call backs, shows they paid close attention to detail.
All in all, the reboot deserves all the love because it is soooooo worth it, for drama or true crime fans alike. I would not hesitate to watch another 5 seasons of Dexter "New Blood."

Quite enjoyed this one. The cast is comprised of talented and under-rated actors, and the plot is especially superb. It was a modern spin on a peeping tom. It felt real, and relatable. Yet I have to mention a previous review mentioning a "flawed third act." I can attest to this, as I felt that it had a rushed ending. I almost wish the story spent less time on character development (although still integral), and more time on the tension build up throughout. Still really enjoyed the film, it makes you feel a little more aware of your surroundings, and it definitely fulfilled my horror quarantine fix!
People with issues go on a retreat to find the negativity theyve created, is not what they expected.
This film contains a sleep-away retreat plot, a small love story, as well as a comedic undertone. I really enjoyed the storyline, it feels original. Character development and conclusion could've been much stronger and more dramatic. Fun watch.
