'Walking Dead' zombies still terrifying in season 5

AMC has just unveiled a teaser clip from the fifth cycle of the hit zombie series, which is slated to return to the air this October.

The network is rewarding the patience of its fans with a clip from the next season of "The Walking Dead." Under a minute long, the new video shows Carol (Melissa McBride) and Tyreese (Chad Coleman) with the baby Judith fleeing through the woods from a horde of zombies.

Titled "A," the season four finale of "The Walking Dead" drew an audience of 15.7 million, making it the third most watched episode in the history of the now cult series. The show's all-time record is still held by the fourth season premiere, which was watched by 16.1 million fans.

On the whole, season four was watched by an average 13.3 million viewers per episode, marking a 24 percent increase from the previous year.

The fifth season, consisting of 16 episodes, will arrive on AMC in October, although the exact premiere date has not been announced.
