DAM S2 premieres on Showmax
The award-winning small-town psychological thriller, shot in the Eastern Cape is back and it’s creepier than ever! DAM S2 is now streaming on Showmax, with new episodes on Thursdays until 23 March 2023.
Created by four-time SAFTA winner Alex Yazbek, the first season of twisty and twisted thriller was one of the 10 most-watched titles of 2021 on Showmax and the most nominated drama series at the 2022 SAFTAs, earning rave reviews for breaking the mould of South African TV.
It’s now three months after the Spring Festival. The cult’s ritual sacrifice seems to have worked: rain has come and transformed the land. Yola has no memory of anything since her return for her father’s funeral. Can she put the missing pieces together as diamonds are discovered, a mass grave uncovered, and a monster surfaces in the dam?
With just one episode out so far, DAM S2 proves to be a worthy follow-up to its exceptional predecessor. It’s just as compelling as the first season. A perfect blend of drama, horror, and suspense that is well worth watching. It will remain streaming television’s guilty pleasures. Pallance Dladla and Lea Vivier return in their SAFTA-nominated roles as Themba and Yola, with Natasha Loring also back in her SAFTA-winning role as Yola’s sister, Sienna. Made in partnership with Picture Tree and the Eastern Cape Development Corporation, the Showmax Original also won Best Art Direction for Sue Steele at the 2022 SAFTAs.

Shot in Adelaide and Bedford in the Eastern Cape, DAM also stars SAFTA winners Antoinette Louw and Tarryn Wyngaard; Fleur du Cap winner and Africa Movie Academy Award nominee Faniswa Yisa; Laudo Liebenberg, Francis Chouler, and Gerald Steyn; and SAFTA nominees Jennifer Steyn, Andre Odendaal and Marvin-Lee Beukes.
In this chilling psychological thriller, Yola returns to the Eastern Cape farmhouse of her childhood after her father’s death. Spirits in the house start tormenting her – or is the haunting only in her head?
