If it's a Dead Guy on Display, it may simply be to raise morale. Usually an Asshole Victim because the dead villain really deserved it, or a case of Pay Evil unto Evil.It's more common as a threat than as an actual action, both because the villains usually lose or die before they have the hero's corpse to play with and because it's an easy way to show their depravity without actually having to show anything.Affably Evil, Wicked Cultured, and Noble Demons usually avoid this whenever possible because Even Evil Has Standards, so desecrating the dead may point to a Complete Monster.It's usually a For the Evulz or Kick the Dog moment proving just how depraved they are.The message sent is often dependent on what kind of character does the desecration: It isn't always the physical corpse that's being desecrated the spirit of the victim can be targeted for further abuse, a grave or monument can be defaced, or the works of the person can be destroyed even if they could be utilized for the betterment of society because it's more important to erase the creator. Spite, revenge, intimidation, and depravity are common motivators for desecrating the dead - for both Heroes and Villains. Sometimes they're so angry that death just isn't enough, sometimes they need a Dead Guy on Display to show the public that an enemy is truly, thoroughly defeated, and sometimes they're so evil they want to play with them some more. In this case, however, a character makes a deliberate decision to humiliate or punish the dead person even further. Sometimes a character has a pragmatic reason to kill a dead person again, or is too emotional to stop themselves even though their victim is long past resistance. Sometimes, though, the deceased gets a lot more attention. If they're important (or just important to the plot), you may see them being buried or inspected at a local morgue, but due to the Law of Conservation of Detail they are usually quickly forgotten. Usually when someone dies in fiction their body is ignored. Brunt, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, ' Body Parts'
