I'm thinking that all skeletons and zombies (with the exception of zombie lords and maybe Bladed/Serrated Skeletons) are evil. I tried out Wall of Moonlight on poison zombies, and it didn't affect them.

AFAIK, all basic skeletons and zombies are mindless undead with no free will; they are animated to do the will of a spellcaster.

You do have to have a certain type of spell to raise zombies. Look at Animate Dead and some of the higher-level necromancy spells. The reason you don't get zombies when you cast Raise Dead or Resurrection is because those spells are designed to bring the spirit back into the body being raised, which is why they are higher level clerical spells than Animate Dead.
