Maybe this topic has been discussed in these forums, but why doesn't anyone on The Walking Dead call theses resurrected corpses zombies?
Even if none of the survivors have knowledge of Haitian voodoo folklore, surely many must be familiar with 1978's Dawn of the Dead or the many reincarnations of these mindless shufflers that have since appeared. Somebody should be calling them zombies.
Here's a rundown of the other names the zombies have acquired in the series.
