Realizing the weight of what he put his son through, Dexter sets out for New York City, determined to find him and make things right. But when Miami Metro’s Angel Batista arrives with questions, Dexter realizes his past is catching up to him fast. As father and son navigate their own darkness, they soon find themselves deeper than ever imagined. A continuation of DEXTER: NEW BLOOD.”
The shows has been hailed by both critics and fans with the Rotten Tomatoes critics rating at a hugely impressive 100%. Their consensus reads: “Dexter brushes off a minor case of death and multiple false endings to reemerge as vital as ever in a knowingly absurd continuation that rediscovers the thrill of the hunt.”
One critic said: “Hall’s performance is as weirdly compelling as ever, and Resurrection does interrogate whether its own subject matter is an unhealthy obsession in a plotline featuring Peter Dinklage and Uma Thurman.”
“This is the Dexter we’ve wanted to see return since the original show ended in 2013, while also furthering the story. It’s filled with thrills, dark humor, a compelling and dramatic story, and another standout performance from Michael C. Hall,” another added.
The audience are not far behind with their 92% ranking.
One audience reviewer gave the series a glowing review, they said: “Dexter: Resurrection picks up right after New Blood, and I must say it feels more alive and energetic than ever before. This new chapter brings a fresh intensity and emotional depth that surpasses what we saw in New Blood. The pacing is tighter, the characters more compelling, and the atmosphere captures that classic Dexter vibe while pushing the story into exciting new territory.”
Dexter: Resurrection is available to stream right now on Paramount+.
