A creature/being that behaves very similarly to a zombie, but does not abide by certain common zombie rules and/or does not fit the stereotypical image of a zombie.
Examples include The Last of Us' "Cordyceps" infection, Resident Evil 4's "Las Plagas" infected, and 28 Days Later's "Rage Virus"

A creature/monster that behaves near identically to a zombie, but has enough differences from a stereotypical zombie that it can be difficult to class them as zombies (e.g., Clickers from The Last of Us)
