Thats an important debate, though, Grav. The ones in 28 Days Later aren't dead - so are they zombies? Same with the zombie vampire things in I Am Legend. I can't think of many other examples of fast zombies outside video games.
I'm thinking of actually starting a thread with a poll. IS IT A ZOMBIE IF IT ISN'T UNDEAD?

Obviously frying pans need to be outlawed. How many more poor, defenseless rabid mountain lions have to die? ;)

The ones on Walking Dead seem to be fast only when they are in packs. Singly, they're slow M-Fers.

Yeah, I was on that whole Night of the Living and Dawn of the Dead thing.

I never thought zombies would be subject to advances due to technology. Even zombies are sacred no more. :(

10 tips for surviving a zombie outbreak

Aren't they though?!
I'd be tempted to become Infected just so I could run like that.
Even with Robert Carlyle as bait I couldn't manage it otherwise.

Never underestimate the power of a good skillet. Kill a mountain lion and fry up some steaks after. Always keep your pan properly seasoned!

You can kill a bear with a skillet too.
At least if she's really a Native American boinking your father.

Or so says John Irving.

Tsk tsk - all this violence!

I'm going to start a support group for the Undead. They really seem
to need one. Last few weeks have been a real pr nightmare
for zombies (ie. Face-eating guy in Miami-zomibe in Maryland
and the Canuck pron star who recently ate another dude's torso....)

oooh! topical!

Yes, they are not zombies. Good point. That wacky bunch in "28 Days Later" was all virused up or something, and while some movies do get their zombies from/through a disease or some such, they do usually die before becoming too troublesome.

Fear not people, the Center or Disease Control has spoken.

No, really, they have ...

It started as a joke, and, as it turns out, includes a lot of really good pandemic preparedness information.

I got curious, and...yep.
