Zombies are “untreated” bodies and usually virus based, which activates the “ick” factor in the human brain. Plus they’re out in the open and you feel more helpless to keep them away.

Mummies are wrapped, dried, residing in their designated resting place and ancient. Also much easier to avoid unless you’re poking around where you shouldn’t.

Mummies also animate because of a curse, whereas zombies have a whole host of possible mechanisms of animation.
