You yourself do not even know what it means, since you believe that a human being that eats human flesh with no higher brain function is just a normal old cannibal.
The modern concept of zombie is not the core concept, the Haitian folklore is. Concepts change over time, the concept of a zombie is no longer necessarily undead in today's fairytales. If you can't somehow wrap that around your head, then you are wasting both of our time and I don't see a reason to continue this conversation any further.
Perhaps you yourself are lacking higher brain functioning? Sounds like I'm talking to a zombie in denial.
You need a dictionary and a lesson in etymology more than you need to worry about the categorisation of derivative concepts of zombie.
If self awareness was a disease you'd be the healthiest person alive.
