I'm not understanding why some people seem to think that this is a film when it is very clearly a Halloween special of The Boulet Brothers Dragula TV show. Even if you are unfamiliar with the programme, it should be very clear that this IS NOT A FILM. It even explains the concept at one point, that here we have 7 drag performers competing to earn a place in the forthcoming fourth season of the show. It's not like trying to understand quantum physics.
I'm a huge drag fan, and whilst I love RuPaul's Drag Race, it's great to see a show that showcases the darker side of the artform. Yes it looks like it's been done on a budget at times, but that's so often a part of drag; creating something special from not very much.
If you have not watched The Boulet Brothers Dragula before you may not get a lot out of this special show, but established fans will find a lot to enjoy. Even if you haven't seen the show, maybe give this special episode a watch, it might convert you to being a fan of horror drag.
score 7/10
