* In ''Literature/OldYeller'', "hydrophobia" (rabies) is effectively this. While everyone knows it's a disease, the exact mechanism for how it works and spreads is not clear. It causes herbivores to become weak and shambling, while carnivores become blindly aggressive; a bite will turn someone into a ZombieInfectee, and once that happens there is no hope and no cure. Travis and family have to MercyKill the infected and [[BurnTheUndead burn their bodies]], hoping to keep the disease from spreading.

* The zombies in ''Film/ZombiesZombiesZombies'' are a cross between an ArtificialZombie and a plague zombie: created when an experimental cure for cancer is accidentally combined with an experimental cure for crack addiction. The resultant drug is stolen by the janitor, and then taken by a hooker he frequents who is looking for a high. The drug kills the body and then reanimates it, but the condition can be spread by biting.

* ''Film/TheSadness'' revolves around the Alvin Virus: a pathogen that affects the parts of the brain that regulate sex and aggression. An outbreak in Taipei quickly results in most if not all of Taiwan being overrun by deranged, bloodthirsty maniacs that commit unspeakable acts for the sake of it.

* ''WebOriginal/HamstersParadise'': The harmsters are plagued by a disease called Severe Infectious Harmster Transmissible Tumor (or [[FunWithAcronyms SIHTT]] for short), a form of transmissible cancer spread by either biting or by eating the flesh of the infected ([[MonstrousCannibalism which is fairly common among harmsters]]). After the Second Harmster World War, a strain termed the Neuro-Ocular strain (NO-SIHTT) emerges, which infects the victim's brain to make them disoriented and aggressive and allow it to propagate even further. This eventually results in a ZombieApocalypse that wipes out the weakened harmster civilizations, but which ironically also eradicates the disease when its own success strips the world bare of viable hosts.

* The "zombies" in ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'' and ''VideoGame/Left4Dead2'' [[TechnicallyLivingZombie aren't actually dead]] (it's more akin to a strand of rabies) and don't actually eat the uninfected; they just want to rip their bodies to shreds and stomp on the remains. Also, the method of infection changes wildly due to rapid mutation, but more a few times it demonstrates to also be airborne, which results in problems when the rescuers are not immune and thus get infected by the survivors (since the "[[TheImmune immune]]" survivors are technically [[TyphoidMary asymptomatic carriers]]).
