“It’s life or death!” “It’s both. It’s always both.” Brooklyn zombie mash! IFC Films has debuted the official trailer for a horror comedy movie called Queens of the Dead, a queer zombie comedy made by filmmaker Tina Romero (daughter of the legendary zombie master George A.

The film premiered the 2025 Tribeca Festival – where it won an Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature – and later screened at the Fantasia Film Festival up in Montreal a few months ago. Queens of the Dead is now set to open in theaters starting in October (of course!) before it’s streaming on Shudder. The fun ensemble cast includes Katy O’Brian, Jaquel Spivey, Tomas Matos, Nina West, Quincy Dunn-Baker, Jack Haven, Cheyenne Jackson, Dominique Jackson, Margaret Cho, Riki Lindhome, & others.
