On the activated ability shouldn't it say you may cast... this turn or until end of turn?

This works as written, and makes you have to cast it right now as the ability resolves

As dude1818 says.

The "this turn" "until end of turn" wording is used mostly for effects where either timing or card selection is out of your control (e. g. triggered abilities or effects that exile cards from the top of your library to cast - often a random draw).

Here you choose both timing and card selection by activating the ability at a moment and targeting a card of your choice.

An additional benefit is that you can activate the ability at instant speed and cast the Zombie card as it resolves, so this wording also simulates the "as though it had flash" aspect of the static ability.
