I am reminded of the first episode of walking dead.
Also: LOTLETH TROLL

I don't know how prominent the Bloodthrone Vampire / Bloodghast Sac engine was in standard back in the days of Zendikar, but I think Gravecrawler can be a very, very viable replacement for the ghast.
The unfortunate part is the "Zombie" part, when Bloodthrone is most definitely a vampire and not a zombie, which means that you'd need a second zombie on the field for the Zombiecraft effect (a nickname I give to crawler's Metalcraft-like effect).
I'd also suggest that Blood Artist would work wonders with them two, but that'd mean you'd need 4 pieces of this increasingly complex puzzle.
If there is going to be a reprint of Nantuko Husk or Phyrexian Ghoul in the Return to Ravnica block, then I think this will jump in price.
I'm saying this now: invest in Gravecrawlers! Who knows what Golgari's got up their sleeve!

This card is ridiculous....buy a set now before RTR comes out, you can still get them for $6 each online. I love using it with Mortarpod but when that rotates out in October, it looks like GB is getting some great replacements. This is going to combo very nicely with Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord and Lotleth Troll. LOLTROLL for short.
Usually leads to a turn 4 or 5 win if you have one in your opening hand with a sac engine.

Golgari came out at just the right time. This will be sure to find its way into my Standard deck to work with Blood Artist and Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord.

Actually my favourite Zombie card in my Blue/Black Zombie deck. I always used to growl when I get this thing onto battlefield. :)

Gravecrawler + Carrion Feeder + Bridge from Below = A lot of zombies and one fat Carrion Feeder.
Attack with small hoard of zombies, eat anything (including Carrion Feeder himself) that would kill a blocker and ice your bridges, Unearth Carrion Feeder, nom some Gravecrawlers, repeat.
Not efficient but way fun.

Just in case this wasn't already broken enough, slap a skullclamp on it to get a reusable {1}{B}: Draw 2 cards.

I think Ash Zealot was made just to stop this becoming too dangerous... it's like the perfect counter for it.
@Mcknuty: No it's not obsolete, it's still very useful. Not every deck runs Ash Zealot plus this only costs 1 and keeps coming back. That's great for a 2/1.
