I've run a Zombie / Skill Drain deck for quite sometime now. Yours is pretty close to mine but I'll offer these suggestions that have worked well for me...

-1 Despair from the Dark
-1 Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast
-2 Magic Drain

+2 Newdoria
+2 Magic Jammer

You can usually afford to pitch an extra Skill Drain or a Zombie to be retrieved with Book of Life as a payment for Magic Jammer. What you can't afford it to have your Skill Drain destroyed and pay for it again later and in the mean time have your opponent's monster effects be active.
 
Toy around with it but I'm not sure you need more than one Call of the Mummy.

Have you figured out a side deck yet? After the first duel your opponent is going to be gunning for that Skill Drain. You're going to need to protect it. Fake Trap might come in handy here and since you're playing 10 trap cards might be space in your deck well spent.

If you see your monsters are over powering in the first duel but getting knocked down by Widespread Ruin, BTH, and Sakuretsu Armor then you may want to side out you Book of Moon and Swords of Revealing Light for a pair of Dust Tornados or perhaps even a Bait Doll. What I've found pretty typical playing this type of deck is that after the first duel my opponent sides out and loads up on BTH or recently Trap Hole. Bait Doll is a good solution to that problem.
 
At this point you'll just have to play it agaist enough people to see how it works out.

What you have to consider is what most people are side decking. As I said, you know they'll be gunning for your Skill Drain so after first duel you'll need a bit more protection. You don't have to worry nearly as much about Mobius as Skill Drain can negate his effect (and can even be activated in chain to his effect activation thereby negating it) It's the extra monster destroyers that will likely be sided in that you may be concerned about.
 
Exactly, why Brain Control? By that I mean why do you have it in the deck?

Your monsters are already powerful enough, you're not likely to become over powered. You already have Pyramid Turtle and Call of the Mummy not to mention Book of Life to get those powerful monsters on the field. Skill Drain is going to negate any effect of a monster they have on the field....so why do you want their monster?

Not to mention that you're already paying your life points away with Skill Drain, Premature Burial, and My Body as a Shield. Don't pay yourself to death for monsters you don't need.
