Tense Serial Killer Thriller from Denmark - Darkness: Those Who Kill: Series 1 review by PV
I rented this as I am at present watching series 3 every Saturday on TV.
It';s a superbly tense drama, at 8 episodes possible 2 episodes too long though.
And the last part was disappointing. No spoilers but I felt there was an agenda here, to excuse any female criminals or killers and manblame for all bad any such women do, as if it is all the fault of males.
JUST IMAGINE that argument reversed - all bad men do, incl murderers, is because of bad things their mothers and sisters and girlfriends and wives have done. But if we want gender equality, we have to have that womanblaming to match the manblaming yes?
Until the end I was really enjoying it, would have give 5 stars. Instead 3.5 stars rounded up to 4.
FAR better than awful BBc and ITV detective drama anyway which is all preachy woke sermonising lectures with tickbox casting and stuffed full is ishoooos. Why I much prefer foreign detective drama, from Denmark, Germany etc.
