In this episode of Streamin' Demons, Jo and Amelie sink their perfectly painted claws into Queens of the Dead, the buzzy new horror-comedy from Tina Romero — yes, that Romero family. Set in a Brooklyn nightclub during a zombie outbreak, this film brings together drag queens, club kids, influencers, and more to fight back against the undead… all while navigating real friendships, fierce costuming, and a whole lot of high heels. But don't get it twisted — this isn't your basic zombie flick. Jo draws the Romero lineage back to Night of the Living Dead, while Amelie hones in on the movie's emotional core. Together, they rave about the color palette, makeup precision, queer representation, and yes — the power of found family. From disco-ball stilettos to heartfelt monologues, Queens of the Dead balances camp, satire, and sincerity with glitter-drenched flair. Plus: memories of gay club culture, commentary on influencer excess, and the wild world of soup at strip clubs. (You had to be there.) It's horror, it's heart, and it's high camp — and Jo and Amelie are here for all of it. Check it out in theaters Oct 24.
