Twin Peaks & Other Cult TV Classics Head to Italy’s Horror Channel

LONDON: CBS Studios International has licensed a trio of critically acclaimed series, including Twin Peaks, to the Horror Channel in Italy.

Starting in June, Twin Peaks will be shown digitally remastered for the first time in the territory. Starting in July, the channel will be airing the sci-fi horror series War of the Worlds, starring Jared Martin and Lynda Mason Green. Highlander joins the schedule in September. The fantasy adventure series is inspired by the film of the same name.

Adam Robinson, the director of programming for Chello Zone, commented: “Since its launch in Italy last year, Horror Channel has proven to be a huge hit with fans. These first-class TV series complement the channel’s line up of must-see horror movies and director’s night specials, and keep Horror Channel the number one destination for viewers in search of chilling entertainment. It’s only fitting that Horror Channel premiere the digitally remastered Twin Peaks in Italy, and in celebration of the 21st anniversary of the original broadcast in the country.”
