Well, most people when they think of deadites from Evil Dead they think they are similar to the run of the mill Zombie but they are not. In order to spread some light on the difference I offer this in my journal, the differences between a deadite and a zombie
deadite
A human, animal, or object that has been possesed by a disembodied Kandarian demon. The inhabited host will display massive abnormalities physically, as well as supernatural abilities such as levitation and voice throwing. They also can infect another host by biting them. To dispose of a deadite one must blow their brains out with a shotgun, or dismember the host's body, always making sure to destroy the brain.
"Ash quickly realized the deadite was playing dead and told Aurthur to get an axe."(Which proves a deadite has some level intelegence"
Zombie
The Walking Dead. Scientific name Homo Coprophagus Somnambulus.
A deceased human being who has partially returned to life due to undeterminable causes. The brain retains base facilities, namely gross motor function. In its near-mindless state, it grasps no remains of emotion, personality, or sensation of pain. In rare cases, some of the reanimated have reflexively preformed routine activities from their past lives.
The rotting bodies of the undead operate on a fraction of the level at which our bodies normally function. Circulatory, respiratory, and digestive systems are unaffected by reanimation. Labored breathing, choking, and moaning are reflexive but no oxygen is carried through the blood. The nervous system functions primarily within the brain and brain stem. Sensory reception is minimal at best and seemingly unecessary in the pursuit of prey. The undead are incapable of fatigue and will persist at any cost. They will even crawl when their legs have been removed. Even if the head is removed from the body, it will continue to live. The only way to stop the reanimated is to destroy the brain. To prevent reanimation in the recently departed, decapitate the corpse and burn the body. The only observable action a zombie takes part in is killing living creatures, especially humans, and eating them.
