The Screaming Woman is a 1972 American made-for-television horror-thriller film starring Olivia de Havilland and directed by Jack Smight.

De Havilland plays Laura Wynant, a wealthy former mental patient who has travelled to her country estate to recuperate.

Laura is confined to her home under doctor's orders but, in a fit of desperation, experiences enough recovery from the arthritis to provide strength in her hands.

The husband is petrified, giving the authorities just enough time to arrive on the scene and save Laura and the buried woman.

A television adaptation more faithful to the source material was broadcast as "The Screaming Woman", episode 5 of season 1 of The Ray Bradbury Theater, on 22 February 1986.
