It was inevitable until Netflix fans tracked down another hot outlet to satisfy all the thirst they’ve obtained while protecting at home. To begin with, there was 365 DNI, a film that wavered right on the line between “generally common messy film” and “genuine pornography.” Now, after one month, we have Dark Desire, a Mexican-made suggestive spine chiller, to scratch that equivalent tingle.
While 365’s story envelops with under two hours, Dark Desire takes its crowd on a vivid homicide secret more than 18 episodes. The current inauspicious objective is sorting out who killed Brenda Castillo (María Fernanda Yepes), closest companion to Alma Solares (Maite Perroni). In second episode “One final Night of Passion,” Brenda is tracked down dead in a bath. While investigators rule Brenda’s demise a self destruction, Alma becomes persuaded her companion was killed. Throughout Dark Desire season 1, numerous suspects seem like the conspicuous guilty party, including Alma’s better half Leonardo Solares (Jorge Poza), who is additionally covertly Brenda’s darling, Alma’s brother by marriage Esteban (Erik Hayser), who is less furtively Brenda’s sweetheart, and Alma’s own darling Darío Guerra (Alejandro Speitzer).
Dull Desire’s finale, “The Answer Was Always There,” uncovers none of these men really killed Brenda. All things considered, truly substantially more disturbing — and only one piece of Dark Desire’s unfortunate structure.
Regardless of Dark Desire’s all’s investigator work, the truth of Brenda’s demise is devastatingly basic: She kicked the bucket by self destruction not long after Alma left her home. The police were right. In this way, the terrible mysteries of Dark Desire’s all’s focal love pentagon — which incorporate issues, smoke screens, and criminal arrangement — never genuinely expected to emerge, as they do during Alma’s hounded look for her companion’s executioner.
Penultimate episode “We Kill What We Love” sets up this uncover by showing watchers a flashback of Brenda’s last discussion with Leonardo. During Alma’s visit, she whined to Brenda that she accepted Leonardo was going behind her back with his secretary, Edith (Paulina Matos). When Alma got back, Brenda brought Leonardo to stand up to him over his supposed issue. Her issue, Brenda made sense of, is that Leonardo finished their undertaking to focus on Alma — so for what reason would he say he is laying down with another person once more?
María Fernanda Yepes as Brenda Castillo.
In the following contention, Brenda at last admitted her adoration to Leonardo. He endeavored to repel Brenda, yet wound up having intercourse with her all things considered. During the experience, Leonardo dropped, apparently leaving Brenda feeling estranged once more. Brenda was so shaken by the absence of affection her in her life, she called Esteban — the other Solares sibling she was laying down with — to admit her dejection and want to take her life. “I’m burnt out on not being adored. Depression nibbles the spirit” she confessed to Esteban, who additionally is enamored with Alma regardless of his sexual relationship with Brenda. Dull Desire then uncovers a superfluously broad scene of Brenda’s demise by self destruction.
Finale “Answer Was Always There” affirms these are the upsetting occasions that really prompted Brenda’s demise, as opposed to another of the speculative homicide successions displayed all through Dark Desire.
Brenda’s phone message drives the series to pose another chilling inquiry ready “Reply:” Why did Esteban stir up the flames of desperate doubt around Brenda’s passing when he had the voice message from the start? Esteban makes sense of his thinking in the last part of “Reply,” when he medicates Alma and holds her hostage in her terrace. In spite of the fact that Brenda’s passing is a ridiculous misfortune — affected explicitly by the heartfelt savagery of the Solares siblings — Esteban considered it to be an open door.
First Esteban considered outlining Dario for the “murder” as revenge against the more youthful person for his delayed relationship with Alma. All things considered, as we learn prior in Dark Desire, Esteban employed Dario to tempt Alma and separate her marriage — not tumble to in affection with her, as well.
Then, at that point, Esteban understood his “actual opponent” was Leonardo. So Esteban chose to position his sibling to accept all negative consequences as the executioner. Leonardo makes this distrustfulness inciting turn out simple for Esteban, since Esteban involves his powers as an appointed authority to unearth Brenda’s body to conceal the way that his hereditary example (read: semen) may in any case be on her cadaver. Just liable individuals generally take such extraordinary measures to obliterate proof. Esteban’s arrangement functions admirably, he can persuade a hospitalized Leonardo in fifteenth episode “We Never Talked About Love” of his own deadly culpability.
Brenda’s self destruction note voice message is the main piece of proof that uncovers the genuine subtleties of her passing. While Brenda mentioned nobody carry blossoms to her grave — she’s unfavorably susceptible — she merits an earth shattering recognition as reward for the maltreatment of her memory by the Solares siblings of some kind. That is the reason an imminent Dark Desire season 2 ought to open with Alma spilling out an injection of Brenda’s cherished tequila for her late closest companion.
