'The Walking Dead' sizzle reel is hot

It's still more than a month away until The Walking Dead premieres on AMC Oct. 31, but there's at least this tasty sizzle reel to hold us over. And if this isn't enough, the event of New York Comic Con will be the Walking Dead panel Oct. 10 at 2:15 when creator Robert Kirkman and director Frank Darabont, and the show's cast, will screen entire scenes from the pilot and will stick around for a Q&A with fans.


If you don't have a clue about the show based on the sizzle real, here's the official synopsis from AMC: "The Walking Dead tells the story of the weeks and months that follow after a zombie apocalypse. County Sheriff Rick Grimes (Lincoln) travels with his family and a small group of survivors, constantly in search of a safe and secure home. But the constant pressure of fighting off death on a daily basis takes a heavy toll, sending many to the lowest depths of human cruelty. As Rick struggles to keep his family alive, he will discover that the overwhelming fear of the survivors can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth."
