Agreed.

"After a booking mistake, four drag queens find themselves performing for a mostly unwelcoming crowd, but when vampires attack, the crowd looks to the queens to save the day."

I watched it a couple of days ago and it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I was expecting it to be really, really bad, as I've seen acting challenges on Drag Race, I also don't really like Trinity the Tuck, but I made it through. It was schlocky, but for the type of movie that it is, I didn't hate it.

I'll admit, the camp appeal of trannies versus vampires sounds like it might be a fun cheesefest.

But still, the four queens on the movie poster look obnoxious as hell. I dunno, I'm kinda sick of drag queens at this point. But I'll give this one a watch.

I JUST ADDED IT TO MY WATCHLIST...YOU SOLD IT JUST ENOUGH.

Okay, just watched the trailer. The vampires are rednecks. That loses some of its appeal.

That's a good trailer, isn't it? πŸ˜œβ€‹

reply

No. It looks like Priscilla, Queen of the Desert meets the Wolfman. I would have preferred something more hip and urban. The vampires should have been more along the lines of The Lost Boys.

Hmmm...I'll just quote myself now (first reply in your thread).

Okay, yes you did. I've never seen From Dusk till Dawn so it didn't register.

MY GRANDMOTHER AND AUNT TOOK ME OUT OF SCHOOL EARLY TO SEE IT...I FUCKING LOVE IT...I HAVE OWNED IT ON VHS...DVD...BLU-RAY...I WATCH IT OFTEN...IT IS EASILY TOP 100...NOT EVEN A DEBATE IN MY MIND.

reply

It's got some top names in it. I mean, Juliette Lewis & George Clooney. You know most vampire movies are a bit cheesy though.

WRITTEN AND DIRECTED IN COLLABERATION BY TARANTINO AND RODRIGUEZ...TWO OF MY FAVORITE DIRECTORS...


FROM DUSK TILL DAWN IS TOP TIER AWESOME FOR ME.

reply

Damn, okay. I'll make a note and catch it. I think I'll pass on "Slay" though.

reply

SLAY LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING I WOULD HAVE LIKED 20 YEARS AGO...I AM UNDECIDED ON WHETHER TO GIVE IT A SPIN...IF ONLY PATRICK SWAYZE WAS IN IT.

reply

Like I said, I would watch "Slay" if not for the redneck element. I can't endure that unless it's a great movie.
