Netflix quietly drops all 6 episodes of ‘amazing’ thriller making fans cry

Netflix fans are raving about the second season of the action thriller Unseen packed with twists and turns.

The South African drama – inspired by the Turkish drama Fatma – follows a house cleaner, called Zenzi Mwale (Gail Mabalane), who is driven to violence by a crime syndicate as she desperately searches for her missing husband, who had just been released from prison for murder.

As Zenzi makes a series of life-altering (and threatening) decisions, the show makes a heartpounding return when she must face the consequences of the bloodthirsty actions she has been accused of committing.

The first season came out in 2023 and wowed audiences as it landed at number 4 in the global top 10.

Just two years later, all six episodes of the second season have arrived on the streaming platform for thrill-seekers to get hooked on.

‘Fists fly. And the truth? It’s about to get messy,’ Netflix teased.

‘Great series, plot, characters and story development are very good in my opinion. It’s visually uncompromising and brutal for the right reasons. Zenzi is an absolute hero of a character and a very very strong female lead. Just loved it,’ Guiillaume D wrote on Rotten Tomatoes.

‘A tight, illuminating script, strong performances,’ David J echoed.

Over on X, season two is already causing fans to totally crash out and another,Angie Bay admitted she was left in a ‘puddle of tears’ by the end.

‘Unseen season two on Netflix, absolutely amazing,’ tshego wrote over on X,

‘Unseen on Netflix is gooood – watched it in one sitting,’ zannielammuni said.

‘Unseen season 2 was nothing short of amazing. I watched the series in one sitting and only took very quick bathroom breaks. I was literally glued to the edge of my seat the entire time!’ wendy mchunu echoed.

‘ELITE CAST. Let it not go unsaid that Gail Mabalane is a phenomenal actress. Epic Cinematography. Chilling soundtrack. TELEVISION,’ Lebza declared.

‘Why is Unseen making me cry,’ rejoice asked.

‘There are some parts of the series that really made me cry. I almost screamed out loud,’ Dr Punkien said about the new season.

‘Season 2 left no crumbs,’ Kinz added.

In an interview with lead star Gail, she told Glamour: ‘Stepping back into Zenzi’s world this season felt both exhilarating and deeply personal…like I know that Zenzi had some unfinished business.

‘I knew her journey was going to hit harder, more emotionally layered, more physically intense and definitely more vulnerable.’

She added that she had to ‘physically and mentally prepare’ to return as she was ‘ready to go deeper’.

Unseen is streaming on Netflix now.
