Which are better, fast or slow zombies?

The older Zombie movies such as Dawn of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead and Day of the Dead all featured slow zombies. The rotting flesh, stiff joints and probable lack of limbs naturally makes them slower. However, what about a recently turned zombie? Surely they don't instantly turn into this clumsy reck of an ex-human being? A freshly turned Zombie sprinting past the old decrepit Zombie is far more fun and to me makes far more sense. I can't understand how somebody can be scared of a Zombie walking towards them at a snail's pace, why can't they just run away? Ok, so Zombie movies aren't supposed to be realistic but I would like to see some sort of feasability.
