Are they cheaper and easier to create? Oldschool practical effects looked so much better (although, many a times less realistic). These just feel CHEAP and AMATEURISH (it's Youtubers level, to be honest). So why use it?
If not only for saving huge amount of money.
I own you.

Both look unrealistic. CG also looks cheap.
I own you.

I think the reason nobody is reacting to this premise is because it doesn't make any sense. You say CG is often more realistic than makeup; then you complain that CG is cheap and amateurish. Which is it?

Looked like red dust blowing out of the wounds. Very amateurish.
