Depending on how you define "zombie", Lazarus was a zombie. But I don't define zombie that way. Even more than Lazarus, would be the saints that rose and went into Jerusalem when Jesus died. But again, they were made alive again...so they would not be zombies as we think of zombies...but they would have been living men that had died.
............ ??? so, if one is "dead in their sin" but still walking around here on earth, are they zombies?

There are drugged-out demonics that gave rise to zombie legends, there have been people with the desire to consume blood, there have been people that had genetic disorders that made them animalistic. Witches are very much real and aliens are real but nothing more than fallen angels in a pseudo-scientific guise. So, yes. Most of those exist, in some form.
The English word "zombie" is first recorded in 1819, in a history of Brazil by the poet Robert Southey, in the form of "zombi".[SUP][2][/SUP] TheOxford English Dictionary gives the origin of the word as West African, and compares it to the Kongo words "nzambi" (god) and "zumbi" (fetish).

The people in the Caribbeans or the ones that live around coastal areas, has known about Jellyfish poisoning that lowers the heart beat so that it can't be detected; and which the person seem to be dead, but they aren't, but in a comatose state and during this period, the brain is lacking oxygen and which a person recovered from this, they will be slow moving at fist until their brain fully repair itself or maybe never be repair at all. God had made dietary laws of food that we are not to eat, and these fishes and shellfishes are some of them things that we aren't suppose to eat. But later down the line, people had found ways to abstract the poison but not all, but leave just enough that will not show any harm, but still does harm us a little, but we put it off as retardation from genetics or something else.

Yes, but the modern version fictional "zombie" in movies and TV do not exist in the Bible. The Nephilim or Giants mentioned in the Scriptures were not the walking dead as we understand that fictional creature today. The Nephilm are spiritually dead because they are half demon / human hybrids, but their flesh was not rotting on them while they were still alive and they did not eat brains and or infect other people by biting or scratching others.
Read this article here for some good Scriptural points as to why aliens are un-Biblical.
How Do Aliens And UFO's Fit With The Bible's Teaching?
Granted, aliens do exist, but they are not what they appear to be, though (For they are actually demons). I think the best way to understand this is if you realize that owls spoken of in the Bible sometimes refers to evil spirits (demons). Why is this important? Because certain owls have black almond shaped eyes like the popular grey aliens do. In fact, I remember seeing a movie trailer involving alien encounters and the appearance of owls.
Also, when people have encountered aliens or ghosts, they sometimes will smell brimestone which is something that is associated with Hell, too.
In additon, those who are involved in the occult at some point in their life will also sometimes have alien encounters, as well. In other words, you reap what you sow.
There is of course a lot more I could share on this, but I will let you research it for yourself.

I think Zombies is a metaphor for zombies as we see today. With smartphones, technology, TV, etc.
Often 'living dead' or 'walking dead' is a person who dont use his brain very often. Simply checks facebook 200 times a day.
Not paying any attention, using a smartphone when driving, with family, or even walking. thus 'walking dead'

I don't see how you can not see it. But then again, if you want the existence of aliens to be true because maybe you like science fiction or maybe because you are looking for others to help to save us, then by all means, go ahead and believe in them. For if you want them to be real, then no Scripture will truly ever convince you.
Do you think ghosts are real, too?
Put yourself in the mind of a detective for a moment. The Bible says that Satan appears as an angel of light. Meaning he is going to appear as something good (i.e. light). A dead love one coming to you as a ghost can appear good to you. An alien while scary to some, is considered to be our outer space friends by many who are involved in UFO cults. And yes. There are people out there who practically worship these aliens.
So you might want to right it off as a coincidence that both ghosts and aliens both have smelled like brimstone with various encounters, but to me that would be like ignoring how there is blood all over the crime scene.
How do they transform so as to look like other beings? We don't know. But they have the ability to do so. In fact, the rich man in Hades, could see, hear, and feel. I am sure he could smell, too. As for a logical explanation as to how the demons could carry the smell of brimstone: Well, I imagine one way is that the smoke of Hell (Which smells like brimstone) could get on them. In other words, the spirit world is another dimension. It appears to be just as physical and real as this one. For the angels are not formless creatures. They appear as men; And these demons can appear physical enough to effect other people by possessing them. How do they do that if they are spirit?

Close, but not exactly. The Modern day Zombie that is understood by fiction today are generally mindless and have one goal and desire. To eat the flesh of the living. They also spread their infection by biting or scratching someone. Zombies in movies and TV today are not looking to seek death. They are just acting on a base instinct to feed on human flesh. I don't see how that is a description of this verse. Nor anything about how they are spreading some kind of zombie disease, either.
