Bates Motel

My blog this week is about the new series that is going to start on A&E.  It begins March 18 at 10/9c.  The new series is called Bates Motel, and it is the prequel to one of the ultimate best horror films of all time, Alfred Hitchcock’s 1960 film, Psycho.  If you don’t know the film Psycho, than you should probably look into watching it.  It’s the story of Norman Bates a hotel manager who stalks and kills visitors to his motel.  It is a movie that set the stage for all horror films in general.  This series is meant to be a prequel, which means it is supposed to set the stage for the movie.  The series is said to look into the events that led up to Norman Bates becoming the crazed psycho he was. 

 

Psycho is one of my all-time favorite horror movies so I am entirely interested to see if this series will prove to be just as good.  This is a link to the A&E website that shows more details about the series.
