* ''Series/{{CSINY}}'': A man who'd been injected with tetrodotoxin and buried alive on Halloween night in "[[Recap/CSINYS04E06 Boo]]" claws his way out of his hemp coffin and shallow grave. Still dazed from the drug, he shuffles his way to the street and happens to fall in with a crowd all dressed and acting like zombies. Since he's dirty, disheveled, and moving slowly with glazed eyes due to his ordeal, he fits right in... until he drops dead for real and no one in the crowd can identify him, that is.

* This is the default Movement option for zombies in ''TabletopGame/AllFleshMustBeEaten'' - the classic slow zombie shuffle. However, there are two other options: "Life-Like", where the zombie moves at a human pace, and "The Quick Dead", where they're actually ''faster'' than living people. All three are tied to the zombie's Dexterity score, as well, with faster speeds giving higher Dexterity.

** ''Film/TheRezort'' makes clear that only fresh zombies are capable of running and, as they dessicate from exposure to the heat, develop the regular slow gait. As the zombies that walk around the Rezort are the "slow" types (until they break loose and begin infecting people), they most definitely have been around for a while. [[spoiler:And then it's revealed that the Rezort's [[IndustralizedEvil method of manufacuring zombies to keep the cash flowing in]] includes placing the zombies in gigantic microwave ovens that dehydrate them in a hurry so they will become slow and easier to handle.]]

Zombies usually shuffle around with both arms out in front of them, groaning "[[BrainFood Braaaaaains]]" or something similar.[[note]]The groan depends on the zombie; vegetarian zombies usually say "graaaaaains", for instance, while zombie plumbers say "draaaaaains", zombie jockeys say "reeeeeeins" (or [[TheHyena lots of hideous laughter]], [[VideoGame/Left4Dead2 depending on the species]]) theoretical physicist zombies say "braaaaaanes", masochist zombies say "paaaaaains", dyslexic zombies say "Briaaaaans", and vampire zombies, though rare, are known to say "veeeeeeins". It's normally brains, though. [[GratuitousFrench Or]] [[FanFic/AllHeEverWanted Cerveeaauuuux.]][[/note]] Aside from the groaning, this is not unique to zombies. [[{{Mummy}} Mummies]] usually do this as well, and even FrankensteinsMonster has been seen to lurch in this variety of the UnflinchingWalk.

Although often portrayed this way in fiction (in fact, it was [[Film/TheCabinetOfDrCaligari a fictitious sleepwalker]] who [[TropeMaker made this trope]]), [[SleepWalking sleepwalkers]] do not walk like this. They walk with their eyes open. If they did not, they would wake up with a nasty headache, or in the hall after they smack their heads on the nearest sharp corner. There have been accounts of sleepwalkers having held conversations, and sleepwalkers who do chores, get dressed, eat, have sex (an actual diagnosed condition, called "sexsomnia", often mistaken for rape) and people have even been known to drive their cars for miles while sleepwalking. More ominously, some occasions of accidental death and even murder have been proven to have been committed while sleepwalking.
