Dexter Morgan: I lived in darkness for a long time. Over the years, my eyes adjusted until the darkness became my world and I began to see… Main theme song written by Rolf Kent, performed by Rolf Kent.
True to the books by Jeff Lindsay
Absolutely brilliant. The visual contrast between the darkness of Dexter’s secret life and the glitz of Miami adds an almost surreal quality. The character development is right on the money, slowly bringing out the background so that one can see the development of Dexter’s sociopath personality and his confusion of human behavior compared to his own.
The fact that he is an expert in blood splatter
Dexter is an actor in his own life; his relationships with co-workers and his personal life are well-portrayed in the video media. It’s a dark work, but it’s set in the strange world of Miami life, and it’s almost believable. The developers of this series should also look to Andrew Wax’s books.
