An especially disgusting episode ends with another tragic death
Horror does not have to mean anything.
But ultimately, larger meaning in horror is just a bonus so long as were frightened.
For the most part,Screamthe TV series has failed even by that minimum standard.

But this thing is still called Scream, so were allowed to havesomeexpectation of terror.
Fortunately, The Vanishing worked.
Lets talk about it!
The Vanishing wasted no time getting gross.
We began with the gruesome autopsy of a corpse that hadalreadybeen autopsied in the past.
(Screamreally gets a lot of gross-out mileage from its corpses.)
But yeah, even in death, Piper just cant catch a break.
Im just going to accept that medical examiners can identify specific animals hearts just by eyeballing them.
But that does not mean Chill MomTM isnt a major creep.
As Sheriff Acosta looked on, they realized this particular pig heart was a message meant for them both.
Meanwhile, Emma and Audrey werestillexperiencing the fallout from Audreys epistolary friendship with Piper.
I feel like she wouldve done that stuff without Audrey having to get out her stationery.
In other words, Emma needed to relax in my opinion, which is correct.
They were hoping more for the ending of the American remake ofThe Vanishing.
Know what I mean?
Thus concludes the astute references toThe Vanishingfilms you were hoping to find in this photo recap.
NEXT: Claustrophobia has its perks
Inside his buried coffin, Noah wasnothaving the best time.
Very few people would enjoy being buried alive, and Noah definitely wasnt one of them.
See, even psycho killers are capable of a lending a helping hand sometimes.
But something about this barn looked scary, and that something was the SCYTHE holding the doors shut.
And, you guessed it: Inside they found a fly-covered pig corpse.
Pig corpses are kind of this seasons theme, for no other reason than they are disturbing and disgusting.
Not since the ayahuasca episode hasScreamgotten so surreal, but this was a welcome change from the norm.
And even if Zoe was a figment of Noahs imagination, the emotions were realer than ever.
I liked this part a lot.
This was back when their childhood friendship was on the rocks because Emma had become pretty and popular.
Still, it was an important moment in their friendship.
There were MORE screams coming fromunderthe casket!
Adorably enough, buried beneath it was a smaller casket containing a cell phone.
(Insert BlackBerry joke.)
Unfortunately, they were too late.
That cell-phone video hadnt been a live feed.
It had been a replay.
Zoe had been dead for a while.
Not gonna lie, guys.
This one was just sad.
In art-world terms, the killer had refined his themes but the results remained odious.
But guess who was creeping in the bushes watching her?
Just a creep standing creepily watching others be creepy.
I think this show really wants us to think hes the killer, but come on.
In other words, here was an episode ofScreamboth scaryanddeath-filled.
Stay tuned, friends.
