PART 2 OF SLASHER FILM FEVER CONTINUES ON AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF "AMC VISIONARIES: ELI ROTH'S HISTORY OF HORROR" AT 10:00PM ET/PT

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - "The Walking Dead" season nine continues on Sunday, October 21st at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. On the all-new episode, "Warning Signs," Rick's vision for the future is threatened by a mysterious disappearance that divides the work camp where the communities are building a bridge. The episode is written by Corey Reed and directed by Dan Liu.

Last season brought the culmination of "All Out War," which pitted Rick Grimes and his group of survivors against the Saviors and their cunning leader, Negan. With Negan's life in his hands, Rick had a character-defining choice in front of him. By making the unilateral decision to spare Negan, Rick upheld the values his late son, Carl, championed in order to build for the future, but created conflict within his group.

Now, we see our survivors a year and a half after the end of the war, rebuilding civilization under Rick's steadfast leadership. It is a time of relative peace among the communities as they work together, looking to the past to forge the future, but the world they knew is rapidly changing as man-made structures continue to degrade, and nature takes over, changing the landscape and creating new challenges for our survivors.

As time passes, the communities confront unexpected obstacles, danger, and of course, walkers, but nothing quite prepares them for the formidable force they are about to encounter, which threatens the very idea of civilization that our survivors have worked so hard to build.

Based on the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics, "The Walking Dead" reigns as television's most watched drama for Adults 18-49. "The Walking Dead" tells the story of the months and years that follow after a zombie apocalypse, and follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. The series is executive produced by showrunner Scott M. Gimple, Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Greg Nicotero and Tom Luse.

Following the episode, viewers can catch an all-new episode of "Talking Dead" hosted by Chris Hardwick at 10:07 p.m. ET/PT, featuring "The Walking Dead" series star Pollyanna McIntosh and a surprise cast member.

Then, late night, "AMC Visionaries: Eli Roth's History of Horror" continues with a special two-night, slasher-themed event. On Sunday, October 21st at 12:14 a.m. ET/PT "Slashers, Part 1," Eli Roth discusses how slasher films killed in the '80s, why endless sequels almost ended the genre and how supernatural killers Chucky and Freddy saved them from extinction.

On Monday, October 22nd at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT, Eli Roth talks how the history of slashers became more sophisticated in the '90s and how the 2000s brought "torture porn" on "Slashers, Part 2."

Both episodes were written by Kurt Sayena and guests this week include: Rob Zombie, Jamie Lee Curtis, Bruce Campbell, Quentin Tarantino, Elijah Wood, Stephen King, Tony Timpone, Amanda Reyes, Bill Neil, Leonard Maltin, Kier-La Janisse, Greg Nicotero, Jennifer Soska, Sylvia Soska, Jen Moorman, Ryan Turek, Edgar Wright, Mick Garris, Dean Cundey, Tom McLoughlin, Lil Rel Howery, Joe Hill, David J.
