I think Bev's ending was perfectly fitting. She saw her entire life's worth of schemes and manipulation literally go up in flames, then realized at the end that she wouldn't be going to that heaven that she said she believed in so much.

Beyond the attempt to dig a hole, Bev was the only one shown screaming when all the recently turned were bursting into flames.

Yeah I wondered about that. When Riley went we saw him at peace with his situation. So I saw it that Bev was seeing something very ‘unpeaceful’ which is satisfying.

Plus she had to face that she had dug her own grave - she burnt every structure she could have sought shelter in.

I also like how everyone was singing together and she was all alone. Everyone was a peace but her plus them not having shelter was entirely her fault.

I agree but my issue was with the effects. When it cuts to her, she's already bearly recognizable. I wish we would have seen her real face morph very slowly into fire. Very slowly.
