It's possible that the dead will resent being awakened from their slumber, and will turn on the caster.

Zombies do not retain any of the special abilities of their former lives.

This removes the effect of insanity from the person specified.
This spell creates a magic light, equivalent in nearly all ways to a torch. If you are using a light source, it will instead make your light source last at least as long as the light created would have.
This spell attempts to summon an elemental that will serve the caster. The elemental, even if successfully summoned, is certain to resent its servitude, and will eventually (or perhaps even immediately) attempt to kill the caster. Until that happens, however, elementals are extremely powerful servants.
This spell is used to gain control of an elemental that has already been summoned to this plane. It can be an elemental under another player's control, or it can be one that has been abandoned.
