Queens of the Dead 2025

Queens of the Dead is a 2025 American horror-comedy film and the feature directorial debut of Tina Romero, daughter of horror legend George A. Romero, who co-wrote the screenplay with Erin Judge. The plot centers on a chaotic night in a Brooklyn warehouse club where an eclectic group of drag queens, club kids, and frenemies must put aside their personal dramas when a zombie apocalypse breaks out. The ensemble cast includes Katy O'Brian as Dre (the harried club promoter), Jaquel Spivey as Sam (a former drag performer making a reluctant comeback), Riki Lindhome, Nina West (of RuPaul's Drag Race), Tomás Matos, and Margaret Cho. Blending outrageous humor, sharp social commentary—especially about community, self-empowerment, and influencer culture—and a queer sensibility, the film puts a unique, vibrant, and glitter-infused spin on the zombie genre. The "brain-thirsty, scrolling undead" are notably slow-moving, nodding to the classic Romero style, but feature a distinct, glam-gore aesthetic. The movie premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and was released in October 2025. Read More
