  1. GLAAD has their head up their ass again? What a surprise! I’d be shocked to learn if any one of them knows the definition of “satire”. There are much better ways to go about making a statement than torpedoing a poor young filmmaker’s project.

  2. Curtis says:

    yawn. GLAAD is barking up the wrong PC tree on this one. The movie looks pretty stupid (a teaser trailer/scene should make me want to see the film not fall asleep – where were the damn knives?), but offensive, I don’t think so.

  3. Makes me wonder if GLADD has even seen this movie. Usually these posts are put out there off a title and a trailer alone. They feel they need to say SOMETHING unfortunately it’s at the expense of a film. This looks like something that I’d wanna see! if it was called “Pissed-off Drag Queens with Knives” no one would care.

    Too bad the movie looks so bad. What a waste of a good title!

    they should be objecting to how painfully unfunny and awkward that trailer was.

  6. Gawd! Lots of lost potential here. The film could have easily been a drag queen version of Showgirls, but sadly as Nomi Malone liked to say in the movie “it sucked.”

  7. Will someone explain to me why this film (besides it’s poor quality) is offensive to anyone? I don’t think most drag queens or trans people would find this offensive.

    • What’s so offensive is that GLAAD wouldn’t know the definition of “camp” if John Waters shoved a copy of “Pink Flamingos” up their collective asses. While I’m happy that an organization like GLAAD exists, they seriously take their shit too far sometimes.

  8. I just re-read the headline, and it made me laugh a little.

  9. The clip is fabulous! I can’t wait to see the movie. I think it looks good. Serious!

    OK, forst of all if we yanked everything that mislead people we would remove ALL showes. I mean for real!
