The old mindless shambling zombies of Romero were a metaphor for slow impending death that is unavoidable by all. How they creeped and lurked around every corner. You could easily bypass them by zipping by or destroying them but you knew Death is still coming for you. Death would prevail given time.
The new zombies(zoombies) relate more to fear and panic. Don't get me wrong, the slow zombies still personified fear and panic but you could stratagize and take some time to get around/avoid them(death). Now with the more fast paced Zoombies you have less time to think about how to avoid death. Much how modern society is now. Fast paced with little to no time to think what you're going to do to save your own life let alone the ones you care deeply for.
