Who doesn't love a good zombie story? There's a constant sense of ominous danger, because anywhere and anyone could be a death trap, and dying isn't the worst thing that can happen to the protagonists.
There's plenty of opportunity for emotional drama when a hero's loved one turns, and the baddies can be slaughtered with no pesky moral questions of how many people you can kill to save your team before you become the bad guy.
