Watch the grisly new trailer for The Walking Dead season 5


The Walking Dead's season 5 premiere is just a month away, and AMC is building up anticipation with a new trailer that shows just how desperate Rick Grimes and his fellow survivors have become. In the wake of a season 4 finale that saw the gang trapped at the hands of a new threat, Rick is out for revenge.
"It's not over 'til they're all dead. They don't get to live," says Rick. "No matter what anyone says, no matter what you think, you are not safe. It only takes one second and it's over. Never let your guard down." And based on the sheer amount of violence in this trailer, that seems like pretty good advice. --Scott Meslow
