Cha Su-yeol, a police officer who has long despised his mother, the notorious 'Mantis' serial killer, must reluctantly turn to her for help when a copycat killer emerges.
Whilst starting off well enough, "Queen Mantis" sabotages its own success.
Based on a French Netflix series of the same name, the tale of a female serial killer, whose crimes are the subject of a copycat, works well enough.
What doesn't work is the slow creep misandry, that comes to toxic fruition, by episode six.
In summary, a promising series ruined by yet more divisive, woke politics. Not recommended.
