2. The one in the movie "Shock Waves."
A grade B horror movie, or lower, but it sure creeped me out. :shiver:

"Shock Waves, also known as Almost Human and Death Corps, is a horror movie from 1977 directed by Ken Wiederhorn. It features Peter Cushing as a Nazi commander who has created a group of SS men with gills, who can live, as zombies, underwater. The film also stars John Carradine and Brooke Adams in her first film. With its chilling scenes of Nazi zombies rising out of the sea, Shock Waves has become an underground "classic" horror movie"

7. oh yeah....
....but I've never seen a swimming zombie. There's a famous (to zombie movie nerds) underwater fight scene between a zombie and shark in Fulci's zombie/zombie 2/zombie flesh eaters. There are also underwater zombies in zombi 3, and I think zombies walk underwater in Land of the Dead, but I've only seen it once, so I'm not sure.
