I think it's the fear of a worldview change.

The zombies do seem to put DESTRUCTION OF ALL GOVERNMENT AND LAW ENFORCEMENT AND EVERYTHING YOU EVER KNEW at the top of their to-do list.

I think more than that, though, it's the fear of being part of a collective than being an individual. That's what used to scare me the most.

People feel that in real life, though. How often do you hear people talk about "sheeple," or if not the word then the general idea?

Yeah, I know, that's why I think people fear zombies. They don't want to be part of that -- mindless shambling as a collective.

I was unspecific about what worldview was changing, but that's one interpretation, yeah!
