With horror going from the silver screen and becoming increasingly popular for networks to have genre themed shows such as "Bates Motel", "Hannibal", American Horror Story" & "The Walking Dead" it's no wonder more and more channels want to get in on the action.

A few weeks ago we saw the announcement  of "Scream" coming to MTV.

This week we see the announcement of THREE new horror themed shows coming to network TV.

This post is about "From Dusk Till Dawn" coming to El Rey Network.

Creator Robert Rodriguez announced this himself.

Bloody Disgusting is reporting: Fans of Robert Rodriguez and his From Dusk Till Dawn might want to make an appointment with Univision in the coming months. The director has announced a partnership with the network via his own English language cable outlet El Rey Network. 

Among the projects announced at the presentation were a TV his Quentin Tarintino’s vampire collaboration and movie “an as yet unnamed action series” from “Fringe” and Star Trek Into Darkness producer/writers Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci.

Horror On TV: Bates Motel

So who is watching Bates Motel on A&E?

I absolutely love it!

It's like a horror mystery.

I feel that with every episode it gets more and more intense.

I LOVE how messed up Norman's mom and brother are, it really gives you a picture of why Norman went crazy.  

Also some good news for the show, A&E picked it up for a 2nd season! (yay)

Details: A&E’s “Bates Motel,” from executive producers Carlton Cuse (“Lost”) and Kerry Ehrin (“Friday Night Lights”), is a contemporary prequel to the genre-defining film Psycho and promises to give viewers an intimate portrayal of how Norman Bates’ psyche unravels through his teenage years. Fans will have access to the dark, twisted backstory of Norman Bates and how deeply intricate his relationship with his mother, Norma, truly is.
