A horrible creature. The zombie is so scary that you cannot stand looking at it.

404 - Life not found (2011)
> x zombie (@ Maintenance Closet)
A horrible creature. The zombie is so scary that you cannot stand looking at it.
Baluthar (2003)
> x necrimera (@ Monster's Lair)
The monster is a jumbled chaos of zombified heads, limbs, tails and skin. In some places it has fur, in others scales, and in many others it has pale, bloodless human flesh. Its surface is punctuated with sharp spines, hanging teats, blotches and wounds. With every movement it makes, it appears to be fighting against itself in an endless battle for dominance over its own body.
Beat the Devil (1999)
> x zombies (@ Food Court)
A line of zombies, each dressed in the uniform of their respective restaurant shuffles silently towards Gluttony, keeping him fed.
Dr Horror's House of Terror (2021)
> x zombies (@ The Cemetery of St. Louise de Marillac)
Underneath their ragged clothes, the zombie's skin is a bit green and flaking. Every now and again, a bit of bone pokes through. For some unexplained reason, a lot of them don't have lips and you can see their hideous blood-stained teeth! You vaguely recognize some of them as extras from the film.
[if 1st time, add:] Hang on a minute. This doesn't make any sense. You were only working with some of these extras the other day, and those graves look pretty fresh. How come they're so...decomposed? Hmm. Probably best not to worry about it.
> x Chloe (@ Studio Lot South)
Her face is already going a bit green to be honest. She looks annoyed to say the least.
> x zombies (@ Studio Lot South)
Led by a relatively whole, but understandably annoyed, Security Guard, underneath their ragged clothes, the zombie's skin is a bit green and flaking. Every now and again, a bit of bone pokes through. For some unexplained reason, a lot of them don't have lips and you can see their hideous blood-stained teeth! You vaguely recognize some of them as extras from the film.
> x zombies (@ The Cathedral of Bone)
The zombies shuffle mindlessly around a plucky Security Guard. Their special ability, a sort or relentless gradual grinding down of their opponent, is not bad. They are very strong and a bit clumsy. They do a very low amount of damage. Obviously, they are also very slow.
Dude, Where's My Scapula? (2016)
> x zombies (@ Gallows)
These folks are alright. They're very single-minded about things though, and right now, with no task assigned to them, they've taken to crowding around the gallows and moaning.
> x zombies (@ Clearing)
These folks are alright. They're very single-minded about things though, and right now, they're dancing to some music.
Escape from the Arboretum (2002)
> x zombie (@ inside shop)
The zombie is one of Vlads minions who work in the shop and live in the
Arboretum. It isn't very observant and does a pretty useless job in general.
The zombie is tethered to the shop counter by a length of chain.
[if no cardigan] The zombie seems to be shivering, probably because it's not wearing much.
[else] The zombie is wearing a black fluffy cardigan.
The Ghost Ship (2015)
> x zombies (@ Crew Deck)
They are a mixture of different cultures and genders, but the thing that stands out is their dessicated skin, gaping wounds, and wide open eyes.
The House of Mystery (2018)
> x zombie (@ Cemetery)
Undead and out for flesh.
> x left zombie (@ Cemetery)
The left zombie is [waiting or about to attack].
> x zombie (@ Cemetery)
The zombie is [vulnerable or going for an attack].
The Mage Wars: Statue (2003)
> x Limech (@ Fringe of Darisia, behind gates)
Dunamei looked into the rotting face of his old friend. Black fluid dripped out of the corners of his crusted maw. His chest exposed a crude surgical gash, sewn back together with thick rope or twine. The stench of death was strong.
Zombies! (2004)
> x zombie (@ Warehouse S)
The lumbering undead hulk is shuffling lethargically nearby. The sickly guttural noises and incessant chant of 'Brains!' spill from its drooling maw. On second glance you notice, this is no ordinary zombie, this is the shipping girl of your dreams Tina!
