Although I was very, very worried about the idea of this – hell, I still am – I am starting to like the look of it and i’m very curious to see where they go, since the series seems to be all about fleshing out the characters we’ve met in the movie – including the vamps – and about showing the event that lead up to that movie, including expanding ideas, themes and scenes.
That’s not to say it won’t still be terrible, I’m making my peace with that possibility, but in a year that has seen me loving Hannibal and Bates Motel, I’m not totally writing it off yet.
Nordling, over at aintitcool, posted the image above, a lobby card for the first episode, featuring D.J. Cotrona as Seth Gecko (George Clooney’s role in the movie), writing: “FROM DUSK TILL DAWN: THE SERIES will have its premiere at South By Southwest as part of SXSW’s new Episodic lineup. SXSW Episodic is in its first year, where we get first look at some of the terrific television series that are coming our way. The premiere of the first FROM DUSK TILL DAWN episode will take place at the Vimeo Theater, Saturday, March 8th, with Robert Rodriguez and much of the cast in attendance.”

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
