Almost every Zombie product whether it's from a game, movie or TV show isn't even really about zombies. Zombies are nothing but plot devices and the real story is either about humanity or "Humans are the real monsters". It's pretty clich, unoriginal and stereotypical for a long time or even since its birth. They don't really respect the horror or terror that is a zombie.
The only zombie product(that I can think of) that respects the monster well is Resident Evil. RE does a great job in explaining the origin of where their zombies came from, how they evolve and treat the monsters like the game and story depends on them. Comments? Opinions? Thoughts? --- I'm Veggeta X's alt ... Copied to Clipboard!

In fact, it's the point for most fantasy and sci-fi. There were never monsters. There were humans who acted monstrously without abandon and by distinguishing them as monsters in stories, we were taught to slay the monsters in our society.
Instead we give them TV shows and presidencies, now. --- "i am making Jerky that some day will be sold in every store in America Very few of you are good enough for my jerky" - krosser, Last of the great smu ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zombies really are not that scary. Actually they are if presented right. TWD zombies aren't scary and most of Romero's zombies aren't scary. RE's zombies are fucking scary especially knowing the lore. The basic T-Virus zombiefied is basic but if not killed properly then it comes back more ferocious, agile, stronger and definitely more scarier. And if they stay dormant for a long time then they further evolve into a Licker. --- I'm Veggeta X's alt ... Copied to Clipboard!

Always thought the slow shuffling zombies was stupid. Not much of a threat. Now Dresden Files zombies are a threat. Runs faster than a regular human, as it wont have any limits, since it was brought back by a necromancer each limb can still move regardless of how it is attached or attached at all.

They are demons more than zombies but it's almost the same thing and they are more based on illogical shit than logical science shit. --- I'm Veggeta X's alt ... Copied to Clipboard!

Because zombies are not interesting characters on their own.
They don't have a personality. They don't have emotions. They don't do anything but eat things. They're less of a monster and more of a force of nature. --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zombies have no personality. They are just dangerous environmental hazards. It's hard to have them be the only bad guy when they could effectively be replaced by a lava flow coming toward the protagonists. Even Resident Evil has Umbrella as the real bad guys.

Romero respected zombies. They were more than just a plot device. TWD was a soap opera with humans fighting each other with an occasional zombie here and there.
