10 Terrible CGI Moments That Almost Ruined The Walking Dead

2. The Trash Wasteland

One of the most derided additions to The Walking Dead so far has been the introduction of a group of strange survivors, dubbed by fans as the "Trash People". Getting their moniker not only because fans would like to see them binned as soon as possible, but because they literally live in a trash heap, Rick eventually makes his way to their settlement in season 7.

TWD always does a surprisingly good job at making digital backdrops look authentic, to the point where a lot of people probably don't know that a lot of major scenes are shot on sound stages, rather than in the Georgian wilderness. Predictably though, the show drops the ball every time it needs to really sell a major backdrop, most egregiously exemplified in the shots of Rick standing against a poorly-composited landfill that the Trash People call home.

It's by far one of the least believable green screen shots in the entire show, made even worse by the fact that everything in the backdrop is so static, except for the clouds which only draw attention to how lifeless the whole thing feels.
