A celebration of queer horror, BIG EASY QUEENS will make its world premiere at Popcorn Frights on August 11th. Full of zombies, gristle, and glitter,BIG EASY QUEENS is "a campy neo-giallo delight soaked in blood."
The horror-comedy feature includes all-new original music from its cast of local drag and cabaret artists Miss Bouvèé, Benjamin Shaevitz, Jennifer McClain, and Matthew Darren. Entirely made in Florida, BIG EASY QUEENS is directed by Erynn Dalton and written by Robert Leleux.
Deep in the steamy underworld of New Orleans, Mob Queen of the Quarter Minnie Bouvèé has arch-nemesis Poodles Makenzie’s crew brutally slaughtered. As she braces for the blowback, she begins to notice an unexpected creepy masked figure stalking her, leaving behind bouquets of gardenias and terrifying notes. Is this Poodles’ revenge, or the work of Minnie’s estranged sister who stole her man years ago and has suddenly reappeared in her life?
