Dexter: Resurrection 2025 Series Review

1

I said it many times already but 2024 and 2025 had some of the most amazing series. Not only in terms of quality but in quantity as well. One of these series is the one and only Dexter.

There were other attempts to make the newest Dexter adaptation, with success, i can say, but Dexter: Resurrection is on a whole other level if you ask me. In total, there are 10 episodes and the cast is amazing. David Zayas is coming back, we got Uma Thurman, Dominic Fumusa, James Remar and the one and only Peter Dinklage.

The plot is pretty straightforward at first. Dexter wakes up from a coma and he is searching for his son, Harisson. He finds out that his son is New York and he sets out to go there and visit him. At the same time, his only visitor is Angel Batista who basically believes that Dexter is Bay Harbor Butcher and asks him related questions. Dexter also realizes that he is in trouble and secretly leaves the hospital for New York.

There he basically finds out about another serial killer who kills Uber drivers and he decides to kill him, steal his identity in order to be around New York, learn the city better and find his son. At the same time though, the Uber driver's serial killer had been invited to a secret group of people and ofc Dexter, having his identity, went there as "Red".

This secret group is led by Leo Prater a billionaire who has ties everywhere but he holds a deep, dark secret. He is the number one fanboy of serial killers. He basically tracks them down due to the many resources he has, forms a group of serial killers with monthly or weekly meetups and he enjoys when they share their stories on how they killed their victims. At the same time, he has a room full of items that the serial killers had or used.

To be honest, except for the fact that i like Dexter, i really liked the New York vibe. Also, when Dexter started and most of the seasons it had, consisted of a low to mid-level budget. This season though, has a high budget and it's quite easy to tell. The plot is awesome, there is action going on, humorous elements, and more in-depth moments.

There is a chance that there will be a second season and to be honest, i hope for that. The way the series ended, though, can provide a "final" ending and i think they did that on purpose in case they don't get the green light. Kudos to a series that started so many years ago and still remains as awesome and maybe even better! Btw a lot of Easter eggs!
