The iconic scream queen directed the latest episode of “Scream Queens.“
There are so many horror shows on TV right now that no matter how many of them I devote myself to watching, there’s just no possible way for me to watch them all. I’m currently keeping up with “Ash vs. Evil Dead,” “The Walking Dead,” and “The Exorcist,” but other shows have fallen by the wayside for no reason other than a lack of time in the day. One of those shows is FOX’s “Scream Queens,” which I haven’t watched a single episode of this season. Need. More. Time.
Now that I’ve revealed that I have no idea what’s going on in “Scream Queens” this season, I wanted to tip you off to a couple fun homages you might have missed in last night’s episode. How do I know about these homages? Because Jamie Lee Curtis, who both starred in and directed the episode “Rapunzel, Rapunzel,” just tweeted that she intentionally paid tribute to the movie that made her a household name and THE be-all, end-all scream queen: Halloween, of course!
Straight from @JamieLeeCurtis‘ fingers:
Any @ScreamQueens fan noticing a couple 🎃 homages?

The other one was the scare in the fabric shop. Tried to homage Laurie walking home and bumping into the sheriff!

In the episode:
A man from Dean Munsch’s past checked in to the C.U.R.E. institute with plans to win her back, causing a jealous Brock to further question his relationship with Chanel. Meanwhile, Zayday and Chamberlain devised a plan to discover the origins of The Green Meanie killer… with shocking results.
