It should have been an epic night out; promoter Dre has organized a night full of party fun.

However, when a sudden zombie apocalypse rolls over Brooklyn, the party turns into mayhem. Drag queens, club kids, and even a homophobic plumber are stuck in an old warehouse, and their only chance of survival is to work together.

The classical zombie movie is given a queer make-over, with thrills and fun galore. It's a search for what it means to survive when the world's about to end and all that remains are your friends, your chosen family and your courage. Or, in other worlds, when sh*t hits the fan, you'd better have your girls, gays and theys ready. Will you make it?

Tina Romero is extremely well placed to put a fabulous queer twist onto the genre, after all she is the daughter of the legendary "zombie-inventor" George A. Romero.

All in all, a fabulous way to close the festival with the entire LGBTQ+ community!
