Him: However, zombies are simply not sexy.

Me: Not as such, no. The reason you get the hot chick in tight jeans running away from Leatherface (not technically a zombie, but it works for the example) is to show you first how awesome, how carnally stimulating the chick is, and how all of the nubile young flesh arouses certain impulses and reactions

"mind"

Jessica Biel in a see-through wife-beater and a pair of hip-huggers tends to elicit emotions associated with cannibalism... as such... yes.

Word. Ima eat me some Jessica Biel.

Uh... yeah. *clears throat* Biel. It's what's for dinner.

Waxing poetic as usual, I see.
Well it's an interesting train of thought. Zombies can indeed be sexy though, albeit in a twisted way:

"Have you ever tasted love like this? Cool and smooth?"
-Voltaire, 'Dead Girls'

"Yeah, I like to get them freshly dead, so they're nice and warm."
*disgusted expression* "If you want to do that, why don't you just go fuck the living?"
-A couple of friends... don't ask.

Just as an example.
There's a bit of sick curiosity in everyone, and exploring the nature of necrophilia (without actually going into the squicky details-- that's just in bad taste) can be rewarding for writing.
