RuPaul’s Drag Race alumni Heidi N Closet, Cara Melle, Trinity the Tuck, and Crystal Methyd star in Tubi’s all-new horror-comedy “SLAY” available to stream for free on March 22nd.
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.
The horror-comedy is written and directed by Jem Garrard, they had this to say about the film:
At a time when hate and intolerance towards the LGBTQ+ community is on the rise, I wanted to write a horror comedy with heart that showcased drag queens and queers as the heroes. Drag queens have always been a symbol of resistance and resilience, so seeing them kick-ass against a bunch of blood-sucking vampires felt like a comical, yet pointed allegory. I’m beyond thrilled to have Trinity the Tuck, Heidi N Closet, Crystal Methyd, and Cara Melle leading this film. Each one is an artistic powerhouse in their own right, and together, they create on-screen magic. I’m excited for audiences to fall in love with their performances – they bring so much heart and humour to the movie, while lip syncing, ass-kicking and keeping the stakes high (pun fully intended).
