no it wasn't a disease or an infection or anything like that.
nobody really knows what caused it. everybody who died in 2009 specifically rose from their graves if their bodies were in good enough state to push their way out. nobody before, nobody after. we thought it was like the films, at first. if you got bit, you were infected etc. turned out that was bullshit. worst anybody ever got was a rash, far as i know. most folks from my home town were smart about not getting bit.
So it relied on being dead before the start of this pestilence? And you say there are movies that use the same premise. People viewed those for enjoyment?
hahahhahahahaha if you're an alien i absolutely do not think these are the best movies to gauge insight into the human condition. they're pretty fucked up.
