finished watching Queens of the Dead
Don't know anything about drag culture or their stereotypes, so I can't go into the politics of it all, nor judge the in-jokes I'm sure I didn't detect.

What I know is that I did like the movie. The characters felt human, their personalities and relationships run the show way more than the zombie shenanigans, the kitsch aesthetics and humor work. It doesn't try to be hilarious, scary or reinvent the zombie movie, it's just lighthearted fun with a bunch of likeable characters.
