Zombies are truly unique. They rip pieces of flesh off themselves and throw them at you for their attack. To kill them, you must gib them. If you do not, they will simply fall over and get up later. You will need to bring their health to zero in a single take, meaning you need to do 60 damage at least, this is most easily done with explosives as demonstrated in the stock demo1.dem, but can also be achieved via Quad Damage attacks with other weapons.
