Action-Packed Trailer: The Walking Dead

AMC has released a new trailer for its upcoming small screen adaptation of The Walking Dead, which premieres Halloween night, October 31 at 10pm. The new trailer seems to be more action-focused than the previous advertisements – it is almost edited together like a trailer for an intense action thriller. Executive produced and written by three-time Academy Award nominee Frank Darabont (Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile), The Walking Dead tells the story of "the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse." Hit the jump to watch the trailer now.
