* FriendlyZombie: Parodied in "Zombie Kids", featuring two teenage zombie boys. They are intelligent zombies and enjoy typical teenage activities like watching movies, but are also interested in eating brains. However they won't attack people on sight and can be talked out of any hostility. In fact most humans treat their hunger for brains as being irritating teenage behavior rather than anything life threatening.
