      The idea of a zombie, essentially a corpse bought back to life through magic, goes against all scientific knowledge so would not really be able to exist outside of a film studio

      Not in the common understanding, no. But the question of reanimating dead bodies is an interesting one. In theory, if we could replicate all the bodily functions, we could bring the dead back… Of course, we’d need to undo the decay that’s happened from when a person dies!
