Why Directors Don't like to Hire Zombies

You think they would be good for taking directions as you kind of move them yourself, but no. They tend to wander towards the lighting rigs and try to attack the camera operators. They are worse then working with children.
Then you have the Zombie's Handlers, (67% of the fee goes to them the rest to the butcher for the pig brains to keep the zombie fed and not snacking on the crew) and you have to keep them supplied with clown make up so that the Zombie can identify them.
They do however seem to be soothed by the ever so calming sounds of giggling madmen. So I like to keep a few juggalos in the building just for that purpose.
Will I work with Zombies again on my next movie?
Sure, but I am not paying them next time they bite into the co-stars.
