I'd prefer if they managed to hack some legs off, or set them on fire and turn them to dust.
Because if you destroy the brain there not going to be able to do anything, besides you could kill them with a lawnmower.
Once you die, bacteria start eating you up and the brain a very juicy part and possibly the first to go.
Of course, zombies which are created from something like the T-virus in Resident Evil, would have a fully functioning brain.
And a zombie should require some brain function to manage the somewhat complex process of walking... take out the brain and you may take out this control center... or miss it and just hit some memory area.
I still prefer putting them back under.... ashes to ashes.
