"however "Cell" was not about Zombies,"

Right, OK...

From Publishers Weekly
What if a pulse sent out through cell phones turned every person using one of them into a zombie-like killing machine? That's what happens on page six of King's latest, a glib, technophobic but compelling look at the end of civilization—or at what may turn into a new, extreme, telepathically enforced fascism.
Amazon.com Review:
Witness Stephen King's triumphant, blood-spattered return to the genre that made him famous. Cell, the king of horror's homage to zombie films
Then of course Mr. King dedicated the Book to Richard Matheson (author of I Am Legend) and George Romero (director of Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead and Land of the Dead) and has even said this book is an hoomage to the Zombie Genre.

Guess it’s one of those agree to disagree moments :) No one came back from the dead, which I associate with Zombies.
