Was Peter the first one to call the dead "Zombies"?
I believe he was. It happens right before the biker gang breaks in.
"There are going to be hundreds of those zombies in here"

Yeah you are correct. They pretty much refrain from using that word in the series and I like that.

It's nice that they pretty much keep it label free. Makes it more realistic and less "genre".

Yeah I like how with each movie they've come up with a nickname for the zombies. Actually I may not be remembering that right as I recall in LOTD they called them "Stenches" and in the (the original) script for Day of the Dead John called them Bees (zombies) because they've got a mouthful of stingers. I can't remember any other instances at the moment though.

That's the first time I've heard it in the Dead series.

What if the word "zombie" were never used in the series? Would we still call them zombies?

I think so.
In NIGHT they were "ghouls", but I think by the time DAWN was made, the term "zombie" was already being used to label the dead who hunger for the flesh of the living. Just look at Italian zombie flicks... Zombie (or Zombie 2) was a sequel to DAWN.

Rotten piles of garbage. Puss brain bags of shit. Ghouls. Creatures. Things. Stenches. 'There's gonna be a thousand Zombies in here' was I'm almost 100% certain the only time someone has used the Z word.

Kaufman used it in Land of the Dead when he said that zombies creep him out.

Yes he did!! That was the reason I was only almost 100% certain. You know when you get that funny niggle about something...?

Kaufman used it in Land of the Dead when he said that zombies creep him out. I loved that line! I've read that it wasn't in the script, Hopper ad-libbed it.

Hopper is great but that ad-libbed line is stupid. Could've done without it.
