Default Zombies in GURPS

Does anyone have or know where I could find a good write up for zombies like the type seen in The Walking Dead and other modern sources (animated dead that it takes a head shot to reliably "kill", somewhat slow and rather dull witted but persistent, don't feel pain and are fearless).

I'm on my phone in a waiting room, so IDHMBWM, but check the end of the list at this link:http://gurps.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_published_creatures

There's also Undead, though that's 3e. Obviously it would require some modification.

If you do a tag search for Zombie, you'll find a boatload of stuff to be useful I think.

There are lots and lots of zombie templates for free right here at the fora, including at least one entire thread for them. If you want them to require headshots, be sure to add Injury Tolerance (No Vitals) to any template that only has IT: Unliving (as the majority I've seen do), because IT: Unliving doesn't assume No Vitals.

I assume the upcoming GURPS Zombies will have a few new templates, but we'll have to wait a bit longer.

Since your three threads combined seem to be leaning towards THS, do you have THS Orbital Decay? IIRC there is another zombie-like creature there.
