We all pretty much know what lust zombies are guilty of in life. If you're not sure, ask your parents.

The thing about Lust Zombies is that they lust for more than just physical interaction with humanity -- beyond munching on another person's brains. They lust for human companionship.

"I don't know what's happening to me. I'm not alive. I'm not dead. I'm just...I'm just so lonely." - Julie, Return of the Living Dead 3 (1993)

Of course, that's never going to work, because they're dead and cold and rotting and people aren't. Unless you're into that sort of thing, in which case you'll probably soon become a lust zombie yourself. Where were we going with this? Oh right...

Lust zombies are particularly dangerous because they're smart. They know the right things to say, they can, with some effort, conceal the fact that they're zombies. This works for a little while, until a lust zombie gets a hangnail, it gets infected, and things spiral from there.

For some, lust zombies are a sort of ideal state for fetishists. Indeed, lust zombies who embrace their true nature are fond of piercing themselves in weird and creative ways that they wouldn't normally survive in real life.

But at heart, lust zombies are just looking for love. Aren't we all?
