ABOUT THE FILM:

On the night of a colossal warehouse drag show in Brooklyn, a zombie apocalypse erupts, transforming the venue into a battlefield. A diverse group of drag queens, club kids, and frenemies must set aside their personal dramas and unite to combat the brain-hungry undead. As the night unfolds, they discover that survival requires more than just flamboyance—it demands resilience, unity, and a touch of glitter.

Tina Romero’s directorial debut is a riotous blend of horror and comedy, infused with queer sensibilities and sharp social commentary. With standout performances from Katy O’Brian, Jaquel Spivey, and Margaret Cho, QUEENS OF THE DEAD delivers a fresh take on the zombie genre, celebrating community and transformation amidst the chaos.
