Watch A New Trailer For ‘Bates Motel’!

by Derek Kraneveldt

If you’re a regular around these parts, you know full well just how excited I am for A&E’s Bates Motel. The series looks absolutely fantastic (at least from the few minutes of footage that we’ve seen), and has had an extremely powerful marketing campaign.

 

A&E today released a new trailer for the series, and (of course) it’s a great peek at just what the series has to offer. Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think! Bates Motel opens for business on March 18th.

 

 

Following the tragic death of her husband, Norma Bates buys a motel on the outskirts of the idyllic coastal town of White Pine Bay, seeking a fresh start. As Norma and Norman get ensconced in their new home, they discover this town isn’t quite what it seems, and the locals aren’t so quick to let them in on their secrets. But the Bates’ are done being pushed around and will do whatever it takes to survive – and will do whatever it takes to protect their own secrets.

‘Psycho’ Prequel ‘Bates Motel’ Gets Two Tiny, Creepy Teasers!

by Derek Kraneveldt

A&E has just released two short teasers to garner excitement for their upcoming series Bates Motel. Colour me excited: while each video runs for just 15 seconds, each is well done, effective, and very creepy.

Bates Motel will of course act as a prequel to the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock classic Psycho (though interestingly enough, it looks to be set in modern times). Freddie Highmore will play a young Norman Bates, while his mother Norma will be played by Vera Farmiga. Nothing is know about the plot at this time, aside from the fact thatBates Motel will portray the twisted mother and sun relationship, and Norman’s descent into madness.

Bates Motel is set to premiere sometime in 2013. Excited?
