Driving by their deep will of achieving success and fame, two young teenager girls, who are cheerleaders inside their high school, who after the arrival of a coach to help them achieve success by training their teams, both struggle against getting rid of the other by any means, the thing that brings terrible for them.
Dare Me is certainly not the only show on TV with gorgeous cheerleaders-it's a cliché of many teen series, in multiple genres-but it treats their experiences with a freaky, sensual gravity, not as an arch joke.
Love is a kind of killing, Addy repeats in one chapter, haunting words that get at the core of the series, which mixes desire, hunger, control, and betrayal into an intoxicating poison.
