Proud to admit that I am a horror junkie. However, my definition of what falls under the realm of horror entertainment is fairly wide. Horror is an emotion experienced differently by individuals. These are short reviews of the movies, television series, novels, comics, albums, and any thing else which crosses my path if I feel like falls into the wide world of horror entertainment.

Dexter, Season 6
Starring: Michael C. Hall, Jennifer Carpenter
Premise:
Season 6 has the Miami homicide division dealing with a pair of killers who are using the Book of Revelations as a guideline to their kills. Dexter contemplates the possibility of religion himself with the help on an ex-con who has turned his life around. And Deb gets a new promotion and discovers new feelings for an unsuspected person.
My Take:
I felt the show needed a rebound a from the big letdown of season five and it really did not achieved it. This season had a decent villains but the series threw so much extra, and unnecessary, things in the story that the show didn't really take off until episode 9, where we get a nice twist and shit really hitting the fan. But even then it was not up to par. And as for the cliffhanger, it's about damn time.
I'm really losing interest in this series. Nothing has been the same since the awesomeness of Season 4 and the characters seem to be just repeating themselves. Hopefully with the announced two remaining seasons and the cliffhanger the show can go out with a bang.
Favorite Episode: "Get Gellar", episode 9
Like I said earlier this where the season finally started to get interesting. Things aren't as they appeared and Dexter must rectify his error.
Rating: In the middle
