About this product

Product Information

After playing a mild-mannered funeral home director in SIX FEET UNDER, Michael C. Hall makes a smooth transition to a serial killer in this original series. But the twist in this smart show is that Dexter chooses to prey only on other serial killers. As a child, Dexter was adopted by a cop (James Remar) who quickly realises that his new son is no ordinary boy. Since Dexter is compelled to kill, his law-abiding father pushes him to choose his quarry in a way that will best benefit society. As Dexter grows older, he works as a forensic blood-splatter expert in Miami, giving him a close view of other murderers and their handiwork. Stylish and blackly comic, this drama is adapted from Jeff Lindsay's novel DARKLY DREAMING DEXTER. This collection presents the complete second series, in which Dexter finds himself the target of a manhunt by FBI agent Lundy (Keith Carradine), and questioning his code as a murderer.

ReviewsChicago Sun-Times - Dexter, one of the best shows on TV this decade. High praise, indeed. Deserved, Entertainment Weekly - Six Feet Under star Michael C. Hall's turn as blood-spatter specialist Dexter Morgan... provides one of the small screen's most appealing antiheroes, Los Angeles Times - Dexter is a weekly marvel of writing, acting and conceit, Hollywood Reporter - In the second season, some novelty has inevitably worn off, but Dexter is, if anything, more of a paradox and remains one of the most compelling characters on TV, Boston Globe - From the brilliant performance by Michael C. Hall to the dryly witty scripting, Dexter secures a position near the top of another year's best list, Variety - Michael C. Hall's portrayal of the title character remains a towering achievement, one that eclipses the show's other shortcomings and rough patches

  • TV Par Excellence!

    I'm not into monster movies or killers, but when I happened upon the very first episode of Dexter in season one I was completely captivated. To write a character so brilliantly that you want him to succeed in such a truly diabolical form of twisted trauma is masterful writing indeed. Dexter takes you to the very edge of pretty much everything and all with a charm that really shouldn't exist in a human being so messed up. A killer with a great heart that he doesn't think he has, born of a tragedy that nobody should ever have to endure. The first season was outstanding on every level. The writing, the storyline, the music and every single character is as brilliantly written and performed as Michael C Hall's Dexter. Edge of your seat stuff without quite making it unbearable, brilliant acting by every actor, superbly filmed/edited and brilliantly directed. This is back to back viewing of the highest calibre. So could season two live up to season one? Absolutely. On every level once again. It's difficult to say much about the storyline/s without giving too much away, but it's not for the faint hearted whether blood and gore or the swearing. It is all extremely colourful, but not just for the sake of it, it all stands up perfectly. I also have to mention how good the opening titles are with the theme music. So if you're bored with the same old same old then give Dexter a spin. Class TV on Every. Single. Level.

  • It gets better

    I couldn't wait for the next season and when it came I was excited to see how things would unravel, and boy does it unravel! It is keeping me on the edge of my seat, will he get caught? How the story is unfolding is keeping me glued to the screen. I find myself hoping he doesn't get caught (strange as he is a mass serial killer lol) but you just can't help it. I'm half way through the second season and it hasn't disappointed me yet. I highly recommend this boxset. At first it's a bit odd but keep with it and you'll love it! Give it a go you won't be disappointed.
