'Fear the Walking Dead' recap: It's L.A.'s turn for zombie apocalypse

Fans of “The Walking Dead” horror drama know in gruesome detail what befell Georgia residents when the zombie apocalypse struck. Now Los Angeles is in the spotlight as a prequel, “Fear the Walking Dead,” premieres on AMC.

When the pilot episode opens, teenage drug addict Gloria (Lexi Johnson) has died, reanimated and partly devoured two junkies at a boarded-up Eastside church.

Now Gloria targets 19-year old Nick Clark (Frank Dillane), who’s not sure if what he sees is real or if he’s lost his mind during a nightmarish heroin trip.

Fleeing in terror, Nick escapes the church and runs barefoot down the street.
