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
