Assimilating Brains

I've had a thought that's obviously been touched on before: Borg are the zombies of Star Trek. They're slow, mindless, they can change you into one of them, and their power is usually in numbers. The analogy probably doesn't stretch too far, but it does go to show that creativity is a slippery beast, difficult to catch.

"You will be assimilated!"
"Brains..."
"Shut up, Trevor."
"BRAINS!"
"...You're not helping."


Mokalus of Borg

PS - I wonder if zombies ever wish for a more fulfilling life?
PPS - Probably not.
