    For two full seasons, Kate has avoided becoming a culebra. But now? Well, we’re not sure what that pool of sacred blood has turned her into, but it can’t be good.

    Robert Rodriguez’s Take: “As Season 3 unfolds, Kate Fuller — once a Bible-thumping teenager from small-town Texas — finds herself transformed by something dark and powerful. She’s not the sweet girl we met in Season 1.”

We’re still a ways off from the Season 3 premiere of From Dusk Till Dawn, so here’s a preview at what’s coming up with pictures by the maestro himself, Robert Rodriguez. It’s good to see Rodriguez hands on and continuing to guide the ship in exactly the direction it belongs: more action, more blood, and more demons.
