Romero's daughter's new zombie horror film debuts its trailer, showcasing a fusion of drag queens, intense drama, and grisly demises
Get ready for a spine-tingling, laughter-filled night as the new horror-comedy film, "Queens of the Dead," is set to hit US theaters on October 24. Directed by Tina Romero, this film promises a unique blend of giggles, glam, and gore.
The story revolves around an eclectic group of drag queens, club kids, and frenemies who find themselves in a terrifying situation when their nightclub is overrun by the undead. Forced to put aside their drama, they must use their unique skills to survive the night, fighting off zombies with unconventional weapons like glue guns, cocktail shakers, and hair curlers.
The film's protagonist is a disillusioned party promoter named Dre, played by Katy O'Brian. As the promo opens, she is seen trying to salvage an event, unaware of the horror that awaits her and her friends. Dre's wife is portrayed by Riki Lindhome.
The main cast also includes Margaret Cho, Jack Haven, Cheyenne Jackson, and several other talented actors and actresses such as Tomás Matos, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Quincy Dunn-Baker, Dominique Jackson, and Nina West.
In the film, Nina West's character encourages a character named Sam, played by Jacquel Spivey, to "kill it" on stage. Interestingly, Sam admits in the dressing room that he has never had stage fright.
