[neverending]

The "reality" of a voodoo zombie- whether it's a person in a death like state, is debatable. People have doubted the veracity of Wade Davis' claims. But the LEGEND of the voodoo zombie was that a person died, and was then revived by a voodoo priest. Thus- the defining characteristic of a zombie- folklorinc, pre or post Romero, is that of a reanimated corpse- whether it feeds on flesh or not.

And it was Doc who made the distinction, not V- and he's still wrong. A reanimated corpse is a zombie- whether it eats flesh or not. His flesh eating does not make him a ghoul. A ghoul is a demon.
