I gotta tell ya, it is bizarre to think of Romero zombie fans as "traditionalists," but it's true.
This whole running zombie thing, though, I think it is a degeneration of the horror genre, overall. Faster must be scarier, right? and since we're in a hurry, we can't very well wait for a zombie to grab someone; might as well speed up the process.
Remember that "mummies" used to be the same way. Generally they were slow too, and what was scary about them was that if they were after you they NEVER stopped; they just kept on keeping on, so to speak.
