Michael C. Hall's back, plastic wrap in hand, in Showtime's serial killer drama 'Dexter: New Blood.'
Netflix’s four-part docuseries “Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer” deftly captures a time and place that many Angelenos will never forget.“I’ve gotten rusty in my abstinence,” he admits to himself after the first kill in ages. The miniseries, like the protagonist, feels out-of-practice as well but that clunkiness wears off by the close of the first episode. The pace picks up when the carefully orchestrated life of “Jim” falls apart and the real Dexter emerges.
“New Blood” is tonally in line with the original series but strikes a different psychological note. Dexter is a single parent now and father of a snarky teen. He needs to protect and guide his son, just like his late, adoptive father, policeman Harry Morgan did for him when he was a boy, so add mentor to the list of roles he plays while cleaning up body parts in his wake. Sadly for viewers, Harry is no longer the ghost and/or conscience who guides Dexter as he did in the former series.
But he really doesn’t need much guidance these days. He’s a changed man, even though his dark passenger still compelled him to unpack, and use, the plastic tarps, Duck Tape and knife set. Now Dexter doesn’t need to gather a sample of his victim’s blood on a glass slide like he used to. “I don’t need trophies anymore,” he says. “I may be a monster, but I’m an evolving monster.”
