Briefly

The 1st family of zombies comes to Jersey. Director Tina Romero talks new movie 'Queens of the Dead.'
""When Tina Romero set out to make a zombie movie, she knew she'd follow some of her father's rules for the undead. First, the zombies would be slow and shuffling, unlike the running ghouls of "28 Days Later" or the fast-moving hordes of "World War Z." Second, to kill them, you'd have to kill their brain. Third, a single bite from a zombie would turn you into one.""
""Yes, this is a big gay zombie movie made very much by queer people for queer people," Romero says. "But I hope that everyone feels invited to this party, and that people who maybe are unfamiliar with drag, unfamiliar with the queer scene, can come to this film and find empathy and find a place of relation, and have a good time. Because I do think there's more common ground amongst us all than people realize.""
Tina Romero directed a New Jersey-filmed zombie comedy titled Queens of the Dead that blends shambling, brain-kill zombies with drag culture and club-kid energy. The film follows characters scrambling around a Brooklyn warehouse party who must shelter in place as undead attacks spread across New York. The cast includes glamorous drag queens and club kids, and the tone balances zingy one-liners and laughs with social commentary. The movie emphasizes chosen family and queer community celebration while inviting broader audiences to find empathy and common ground. Release date is October 24.
