Fast Z's or slow Z's, the undead are some scary fuckers.

The first "fast" zombies I can recall are in Return of the Living Dead, but I imagine someone here can cite an earlier example.
I'm totally fine with the quick Z's and they can make for some pretty good frights, but the slow ones really get to me. I liken it to the tide. It just keeps coming. No matter how many sandbags and barriers you set up, the water WILL do what it wants and go where it chooses. A slow Zombie outbreak is the same concept. Hide from them, run, fight, board up the house and stay in the basement with Mr. Cooper. Do whatever you want, but the Z wave won't be stopped. With the slow undead, the terror mounts as opposed to being a sudden rush.
I love Zombie flicks no matter the type of Z, but maaaaaan do those slow creepy relentless ones bug me!
