franksynopsis is correct about the "evolution" of zombies, particularly movie-zombies, in modern culture.
Knowledge of zombies in little DonDiego's world came from black and white motion pictures, many filmed before little DonDiego was born, in which the zombie was simply a slave to his voodoo-master, as often as not Bela Lugosi, and behaved as if in an hypnotic trance. His usual task was to capture defenseless nubile young white women for his master. Why this appealed to young DonDiego is a mystery best left unexamined.
Anyway, movies like I Walked With a Zombie :

Now zombies are more like this:

DonDiego like the old ones better.
In any case, everyone should prepare for the Zombie Apocalypse, . . . lest human beings go the way of the dinosaur:
