DECAY, GARBAGE, AND NATURE GONE WILD
So, how will the world appear after it has been overrun with flesheating zombies, and human population has been decreased to a minimum?
In The Walking Dead larger cities and more populated areas (as Atlanta in S01) are dominated by garbage, decay and filth. Wrecked cars, plasticbags, old newspapers and human remains all join hands in a chaotic and messy union, and essentially leave the audience with a sense of abandonment. Someone has left this place in a hurry!
