A wild night at a party in a Brooklyn club that specializes in bigger than life drag shows and queens. The party planner is stressing out hoping that everything will go according to plan, but even she cannot imagine that her biggest problem is going to be an unexpected zombie attack!
In order to survive the night, the bigger than life drag queens, the club’s staff and a gallery of colorful partygoers must put their differences and rivalry aside.
In her directorial debut Tina Romero, daughter of horror icon George A. Romero, adds to the genre her father created plenty of glam, camp and glitter. “Queens of the Dead” honors Romero senior’s legacy but also reinvent it. The film is full of dark humor, LGBTQ pride and a powerful message on how a united community and self-empowerment can overcome pretty much everything in life.
This film has some seriously kick-ass cast led by lesbian star Katy O’Brian (“Mission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning”, “The Mandalorian”) alongside Jack Haven (“I saw the TV Glow”), Ricky Lindhome (“Knives Out”), Nina West (“RuPaul’s Drag Race”), Dominique Jackson (“Pose”, “American Gods”), Chayenne Jackson (“American Horror Story”, “Glee”) and standup comedian Margaret Cho. Also starring is horror legend Tom Savini who collaborated with George Romero on several films such as “Dawn of the Dead” and “Land of the Dead”.
