1. ‘Dark Desire’
‘Dark Desire’ aka ‘Oscuro Deseo’ is a twisty sexy thriller focusing on Alma Solares (Maite Perroni), a prestigious lawyer and college professor, who visits her best friend for the weekend to “process the grief” of the latter’s divorce. During the getaway, Alma meets Dario Guerra (Alejandro Speitzer), a 23-year-old, and they have a wild tryst. She returns home with her husband and daughter, determined to forget her lapse in judgment, but her life becomes a living hell. What started as a minor adventure becomes an incendiary passion, and then a dangerous obsession, unraveling a chain of secrets of a past that fatally binds them all.
If you like your TV shows dark (and with plenty of nudity), ‘Dark Desire’ will be right up your street. It’s not one to watch with the folks but it’ll hook you in and keep you up binge-watching long after you should be in bed. Even better, there’s a second season on the way.
