I re-watched Netflix's Dark in less than two days, during the holiday four-day weekend I had, then I started 12 Monkeys. Both affect me so deeply. I have seen Dark multiple times and 12 Monkeys will be my second re-watch. There are so many similarities between the two and the latter is just so underrated it's almost criminal. I feel Dark is more bleak and emotional than 12 Monkeys and though I love both, Dark hits hard with its themes of generational trauma, eternal recurrence and the futility that pervades it.
