Could a zombie-like virus occur in real life?

I think like this film is equal to other sci fiction.  I think no one’s expecting the dead to rise again, but there are so-called neurotropic, some existing neurotropic viruses For instance, “the rabies” . 

Like the "zombie virus" movie, rabies is transferred through biting. Once inside your body, the virus travels directly to your brain and makes you go nuts and go and bite more people.For this reason I think that in the future if there could be something similar to the movie, "as a war with chemical weapons."
