Killer Drag Queens on Dope

This is as simple as it gets; the title is the plot. Ginger (Alexis Arquette) and Coco (Omar Alexis) are two drag queens that snort coke, drink daiquiris, and do hits for Uncle A (Don Edmonds in his last performance). Actually Uncle A is sending Bobby (Mario Diaz) to do the hits, but Bobby has his "girlfriend" do them.

When the mark asks Ginger to sit on his face, she does, but with a pillow under her to snuff him out.

Ginger dresses as a nun in her next hit. "You have been judged a sinner, and you must atone." The last hit goes bad due to a Lovely Linda doll that CoCo goes cuckoo over, letting the mark escape. Everything unravels from there leading to a grand finale with Ginger in a roller derby outfit on skates as she saves Coco and the day, and the doll.

Funny as hell with some great lines.

I just saw the remastered DVD that Laguna Productions will be releasing on February 6, and they did a color correction, fixed the sound design, and put on some other post touches that make the movie look a lot better.

It's a fun, campy, goofy flick. Don't take it too seriously. Just go with it and have fun.

I've watched the first half of it so far, and it's pretty funny. And the cast looks like they had a good time making it.

So if you want to have a fun movie night, get the DVD and have some friends over to watch it. You'll be surprised at how much fun you have.

'They're hell on heels!'

I had read some really mixed reviews about this film, most were bad reviews, but as a lover of bad, trashy films I thought I'd give it a go. I thought the story sounded good but my main motive was to see Alexis Arquette and Haji ('Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!) in the film.

I am very glad I saw this, I loved it from just the opening scene! If you are a fan of trashy and low budget films with silly dialogue, bad acting and camp humour I urge you to see this! Don't listen to the bad reviews, they're probably written by people who only like crappy Hollywood blockbusters!

The storyline is almost fully explained within the film's title! Ginger (Alexis Arquette) and Coco (Omar Alexis) are drug-addicted contract killers who work for a wheel-chair bound, one-eyed lunatic named Uncle A. Uncle A doesn't know that they work for him though, he thinks that Ginger's boyfriend Bobby is doing his dirty work. Uncle A is after a one-of-a-kind collectible 'Lovely Linda' doll, and it seems he will stop at nothing to get his hands on it!

Alexis Arquette (as his drag alter-ego Eva Destruction) looks great in this, and the brief but funny cameo from Haji is good. The only thing I would say that lets the film down is the sloppy ending, it could've had a much better ending, but you'll have to see for yourself. Also on my DVD, an annoying copyright title kept popping up throughout the film, but the film was so good, I'm prepared to forgive all that!

Positively dreadful--if you are looking for a campy ala John Waters you will be extremely disappointed.

It is so completely boring. Lousy plot, acting, cinematography, acting, production, sound, etc.

If you have to watch such a movie you are in very sorry state and need years and years of therapy.

I was completely disposed to like a movie with a title like that, but.....as much as I tried to make mental notes excusing this sad movie, but finally it is boring, stupidly written, produced and while they spent serious thought on their provocative title--wish they had not run out of gas in the very first frame.

Movies of this genre (in the manner of John Waters et al) have a very special place in the movie world. They bi-pass the stultifying effect of commercial studios who are aiming for the big bucks.

Since no one has commented on this yet, I thought I would save someone the time and trouble and try to steer away innocent bystanders. "Please look-away, I'm hideous!"

It really does look and feel like a home movie, probably all done with a hand-held camera, awful lighting, bare sets that echo with each footstep, and erratic editing. I've done better with iMovie.

It really quite useless to go much further in the plot than to say that Ginger (Alexis Arquette) and Coco (Omar Alexis) are hired drag queen assassins... oh yeah... and they are on dope. There you go... you've watched the movie.

Good points... uhmmm... Alexis does look pretty good here and it's only 83 minutes.

Coco... please check out Dermablend girl... you'll thank me in the morning!
