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!<\/p>\n

In order to survive the night, the bigger than life drag queens, the club\u2019s staff and a gallery of colorful partygoers must put their differences and rivalry aside.<\/p>\n

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. \u201cQueens of the Dead\u201d honors Romero senior\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

This film has some seriously kick-ass cast led by lesbian star Katy O\u2019Brian (\u201cMission: Impossible: The Final Reckoning\u201d, \u201cThe Mandalorian\u201d) alongside Jack Haven (\u201cI saw the TV Glow\u201d), Ricky Lindhome (\u201cKnives Out\u201d), Nina West (\u201cRuPaul\u2019s Drag Race\u201d), Dominique Jackson (\u201cPose\u201d, \u201cAmerican Gods\u201d), Chayenne Jackson (\u201cAmerican Horror Story\u201d, \u201cGlee\u201d) and standup comedian Margaret Cho. Also starring is horror legend Tom Savini who collaborated with George Romero on several films such as \u201cDawn of the Dead\u201d and \u201cLand of the Dead\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
