Hey Winzo, thanks for the +1 and the recommendations!
I tried River Kelpie and Secrets of the Dead but found them to be underwhelming.
Zombie Master is in already but I didn't think of how Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth interacts with it though, that's awesome! I need to get another one of those now.
Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Entomb were on my list of cards I want to get for this deck already.
Scourge of Nel Toth seems cool...it's hard for me to find room for cards like this (creatures that don't really do anything except come back from the dead) but I love that it has flying. I'll think about it.
I checked out your deck Cecani Family Reunion it's pretty cool, got some ideas for sure. Thanks again.

Zombies are my favorite theing in MTG next to orzhov life drain, and this is a nice take on that theme. Have you considered adding in Grimgrin, Corpse-Born? Especially with the ability to play from your gy every turn, I could see him working very well.

teh_grimness, thanks for the upvote and kind words. I am interested in trying out grimgrin, I just don't own one currently. He has a very powerful effect for sure, and I'm sure it would be great here. Recently I have been trying to add more anthem effects to make the deck faster and more powerful, but it needs more removal too and he is my kind of removal. I'm more inclined to run him, than a generic removal spell like Doom Blade or whatever. What would you cut?

Personally, I'm not a fan of token creatures, so I would take out something like Noosegraf Mob or Empty the Pits, noosegraf seems a little underwhelming and I wouldn't use empty the pits as it requires you to exile your gy for it to really be effective. I would also consider throwing in a Gempalm Polluter, I took out my buddy in 60 card with one of those and 2 Lord of the Undead using my zombie deck

I was wondering, you said "A turn 3 Buried Alive goes for Gravecrawler, Prized Amalgam, and Scourge of Nel Toth which all can come into play for BBBB on turn 4 if there is at least one other Zombie in play already."
I had those four cards in my deck Zombie tunnel vision but I took out Scourge of Nel Toth beacuse somone told me It doesnt work the way you describe it. Say you play Buried Alive and go get the cards turn 3. Play Gravecrawler on turn four for B, Prized Amalgam is still in your graveyard. He doesnt pop up until "the beginning of the next end step", so you have to end your turn for him to crawl out of your GY. at wich point you cant play Scourge of Nel Toth beacuse its not your turn anymore. Correct me if im wrong beacuse I would love it if it worked.
BTW, Isnt Noosegraf Mob + Mikaeus, the Unhallowed more or less infinite zombies, as long as everyone keep casting spells?

Jaefarlii, thanks for noticing the typo in the description. I fixed it to more carefully explain how that Buried Alive sequence works.
I know Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Noosegraf Mob = an unending zombie horde, the card is just a little out of my price range for buying singles right now. I'm mostly interested in the card because it pumps the team and keeps everyone from dying....but that is a cool interaction too. Less immediate of a wincon than combining it with Triskelion but still good.
Thanks for the comments.

Yay zombies! +1 from me! I also have a Gisa and Geralf deck and I find that they are such a fun commander. There's a few cards I would recommend based on my own play experience:
Mikaeus, the Unhallowed
River Kelpie
Secrets of the Dead
Entomb
Zombie Master
Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
Scourge of Nel Toth
