The zombie dead By Wayne Tully

Zombies are the creation of film era scare tactics of the early 60's, even long before these times zombies existed in many forms, but for our purposes we shall stick with the most fondest memories of zombies, which is in films.

Zombies appeared by the death of living people, much like a virus that seemed to take over the bodies of the dead like a parasite.

In the films they were everywhere, no matter how many guns you had and bullets to shoot, the living dead always survived at the end of the film, in fact that was the point, the slow movemnets of the zombies made them appear laughable at times, but when they over ran the remaining survivors in the films story they became not laughable but a true horror genre that has stayed true to it's form ever since the days of the original night of the living dead back in the 60's

Later on in some zombie films they tried to explain what caused this zombie like virus, especially in the return of the living dead series were a mysterious green vapour descends on graves of the once dead and re-animates them as zombie flesheaters(or brains,brains!!)
