Vampire fiction being leftwing tracks, but zombie fiction being rightwing doesn't seem as clear-cut. There's definitely a "finally I get to be a real man doing survival-stuff and justifiably kill humanoid beings with personal weapons" aspect to it that feels rightwing, but there's also all the anti-consumerist and anti-corporation themes that are common to zombie fiction.
