Orgy of the Walking Dead 2 poster

A classic zombie movie

A zombie was a fictional monster found in Earth literature and movies.

Orgy of the Walking Dead was a classic zombie film. (VOY: "Future's End, Part II")

Lily Sloane, in 2063 upon hearing a description of the Borg by Jean-Luc Picard, imagined them as "bionic zombies." (Star Trek: First Contact)

In 2153, the starship Enterprise NX-01 responded to an automated distress call from the Vulcan D'kyr-type combat cruiser Seleya, which had disappeared in the Delphic Expanse the previous year. An away team, after boarding the Seleya, discovered that exposure to trellium-D had corroded the synaptic pathways of the crew and left them violent and deranged. A similar fate had befallen the crew of the Vaankara. (ENT: "Impulse")

The affected Vulcans are not named zombies on screen in the episode. The term comes from the scripts of "Impulse" and "Damage" and from the costume tags of the performers and the text commentary of "Impulse".
In an early script of Star Trek: First Contact, the character of Ruby claimed all people in town, including herself, were zombies, except Zefram Cochrane, who she thought was a great man.

In 2259, when the extradimensional lifeforms from Bannon's Nebula were attempting to communicate with Ensign Nyota Uhura, she hallucinated Hemmer as a zombie. (SNW: "Lost in Translation")

Later that year, an away team from the USS Enterprise snuck a shuttle past the Gorn by playing dead, something that was mentioned to be an old zombie movie trick. Spock admitted that he had never seen a zombie movie before. (SNW: "Hegemony")

In 2380, the crew of the USS Cerritos was exposed to something called the rage virus, which caused crewmembers to behave like zombies, even going as far as eating each other's flesh. (LD: "Second Contact")

In 2381, while on a cave mission on Grottonus, D'Vana Tendi mentions the time when they were trapped in the turbolift following the rage virus incident, which Beckett Mariner referred to as a "zombie outbreak." (LD: "Caves")
