NBC is just all over the horror genre of late and today brought the news that they have sent a project straight to series ordering up 13 episodes of Aquarius which will star good old Spooky Mulder himself David Duchovny.
Here is how DEADLINE explains the series:
Set in the late 1960s, Aquarius stars Duchovny as a Los Angeles police sergeant with a complicated personal life who starts tracking a small-time criminal and budding cult leader seeking out vulnerable women to join his “cause.” The name of that man is Charles Manson. The twists and turns of a complicated undercover operation will lead Duchovny’s character and his young partner to the brink of Manson’s crimes that will that will eventually lead to the Tate-LaBianca murders in subsequent seasons.
Color me interested!

This is where I think horror has gone wrong. Anything you can do on screen that’s FICTION I’m fine with. Make it violent, bloody, vicious et al… What I loathe is when horror glorifies and feeds the fame fire of real world killers. That’s immoral. Fake = good.
Is this the one that is supposed to be done by Rob Zombie and Bret Easton Ellis?
