10 Terrible CGI Moments That Almost Ruined The Walking Dead

10. The Truck Falling Onto The Walker Herd

The season 6 premiere of The Walking Dead featured by far the biggest zombie herd to ever appear on the show, and while the CGI used to bring this mass of the undead to life was fine, the shot of a truck falling and freeing the walkers didn't fare so well.

As seen in the gif above, the way the truck tumbles off the cliff is stilted and unnatural, while the smokescreen that follows its fall doesn't even seem finished. Even the shift to black-and-white cinematography can't obscure how off it looks.

Even worse, once the smoke has stopped billowing you get a good view of the walkers shambling across the quarry and falling into its depths. Unfortunately, these shots seem completely detached from the action happening in-camera, not helped by the flares and photoshop-level fog obscuring what feels like a 2D rendering.

It's an utter mess of a sequence, and makes the walkers look like little more than PS2-era background sprites rather than a group of menacing monsters encroaching on our heroes.
