The supernatural comes to life this weekend in Amarillo.

Some time ago, we heard that Robert Rodriguez would adapt the Rodriguez-Quentin Tarantino classic 'From Dusk Till Dawn' for a new TV series on El Rey, dropping the "From" to simply 'Dusk Till Dawn.' Now, the first cast details from shooting have emerged, with Rodriguez himself to direct the inaugural two episodes!

Sure, 'The Host' and 'Beautiful Creatures' flopped. And sure, the prognosis for 'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' isn't looking good. But when you have hit films like 'Harry Potter,' 'Twilight' and 'The Hunger Games,'
