Dark is a Netflix TV series produced in Germany. From the very beginning, there is crisis. In the first episode, there is a suicide and a missing child. Shortly thereafter, another child goes missing. A dead boy show up who is not either of those two. The community is frightened. Police officer Ulrich, who is very involved in the search, lost his brother thirty-three years earlier. Is there a connection? If you’re a fan of Supernatural, you might guess it’s some sort of monster who surfaces every thirty-three years. The real answer is even more disturbing. Two strange men and a cave system with a secret round out the mystery.
This series is very intriguing and engaging. There are a lot of characters, with a lot of intricate relationships, which makes the show more interesting, but it’s difficult to keep them all straight. This difficulty increases when some of the action moves to the past and you meet them again as younger versions of themselves. Still, there are clues given, and it adds to the fun to learn what past issues have led to the problems of the current day.
I enjoyed this show very much. After only ten episodes, I am ready for ten more. I hope everyone will give Dark a chance.
