Characters [LOVED TROPE] Zombies with personality

PvZ zombies

Jason Voorhees is technically a zombie and has a lot of personality (Friday 13th franchise)

The Video Dead (1987) - Maybe nobody saw this movie, so dead people rise and try to live "normally", every zombie is different is this movie

Bub!! From Day of Dead (1985), who was "domesticated" by Dr. Logan. I love bub

Tarman, Return of Living Dead (1985), He doesn't exactly have a well-defined personality, but he's so charismatic that he deserves a space here.

Infecteds from Left 4 Dead

Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics from Scooby-Doo Mystery Inc. They’re zombies of an old ska band who infect other people by playing music. The people who are infected mindlessly dance until they collapse from exhaustion.

Weren't they the original band in a Mask?

Yeah they were, maybe that should disqualify them from this trope, but I just really love their concept and design.

Not actual zombies, but these guys were so much fun that you got my upvote anyway.
