   Are zombies able to move in the right direction?

   • While zombie movements are slow, stiff, and uncoordinated, zombies do seem to be able to plan movements in the right direction. That is, when a zombie wants to lunge toward you, it mostly gets the direction right. Once it gets its hands on you, it has no problem grasping and holding on.

   How do zombies walk?

   • Most obvious is the way zombies move. Their typical gait is wide and lumbering with their arms out, reaching for your brains. There are three main areas in the brain that control movement: the cortico-motor area, basal ganglia and the cerebellum. Damage to the cerebellum has the most visually obvious effect on a zombie’s walk.

   How do zombies move?

   • They tend to move slowly (most of the time) and lack smooth, coordinated actions. Yet they don’t seem to have trouble initiating movements. In fact, zombies are almost constantly on the move, they never have problems starting a movement (say reaching for a new victim), and they don’t stall in the middle of movements.

   What parts of the brain control a zombie's walk?

   • There are three main areas in the brain that control movement: the cortico-motor area, basal ganglia and the cerebellum. Damage to the cerebellum has the most visually obvious effect on a zombie’s walk. By definition it controls motor timing, coordination and error correction, in effect doing the quality assessment of your movements.

   Do Zombies still need their brains?

   • This means we get to keep our brains because, for the brain, movement is life. Unfortunately, the same is true for zombies. Because humans rarely run to zombies, the walking dead have to go to their food source. Which means the zombies also still need their brains. Well, at least part of their brains.

   Do zombies have fluidity of motion?

   • Moreover, the fake zombies in 28 Days Later exhibit fluidity of motion. They can run, jump, climb and quickly change direction-activities that the true Romero zombies are incapable of performing. Clearly, zombies suffer from cerebellar and basal ganglia dysfunction (duh!). Those are the parts of the brain that make fluidity of motion possible.
