Biography:
Zombie is a common character archetype, not a specific individual, appearing in numerous films and television shows. These characters are typically reanimated corpses, often driven by an insatiable hunger for human flesh.
While the exact origins of the modern zombie trope are debated, George A. Romero's 1968 film, *Night of the Living Dead*, is widely credited with popularizing the contemporary interpretation. Romero's zombies were characterized by their slow, shuffling gait, decaying appearance, and ability to transmit their condition through bites.
Since *Night of the Living Dead*, countless variations of the zombie have emerged. Some are fast and agile (e.g., *28 Days Later*), while others retain some semblance of intelligence (e.g., some depictions in *The Walking Dead*). The cause of zombification also varies, ranging from viruses and parasites to scientific experiments and supernatural forces.
The zombie, as a character, serves as a powerful metaphor for various societal anxieties, including disease, social breakdown, consumerism, and the fear of the unknown. Their enduring presence in popular culture reflects our ongoing fascination with mortality and the fragility of human existence.
