I like zombie skins. They are like one of the monsters in Amnesia. :o

I wonder, what would they do if someone killed their king.
Inevitable, who cares. Now an onion...

An init timer setting would probably be the best of both worlds for how quickly they reanimate, that way you could have then reanimate instantly, or you could even have it be years between reanimations, or whatever you prefer.

If you manage to get a somewhat established fort you can deal with the problem somewhat effectively by walling around your refuse stockpile and putting a few serrated disc traps at the entrance. I also added a few to the butcher shop/tanner and at a couple strategic chokepoints along the way. Eventually the corpses stay dead long enough to get hauled to the refuse stockpile and then they just needed to be dragged back in off the traps every now and then.
