Queens of the Dead (2025) Movie Script

1






[ Sighs ]
And I'm telling you, honey.
That crowd was D.E.A.D. -- dead.
Wasted all my best lines.
Fuck bingo, anyhow.
I got my money, and I refuse
to let this look go to waste.
We outside tonight.
What was she looking at?
Well, you know,
it's Yum Party tonight.
What?!
You used to love Yum Party!
[ Man speaking indistinctly ]
So I'm a sentimentalist.
Kill me.
Right now?
I'm on my way to church!
Oh, the usual.
You know.
Put a little money
in the collection box,
light a candle for Nana,
pray.
-MAN: To God?
-Yes, bitch, to God.
After the day that I've had,
I need a word with Her.


[ Doors thud ]
Here you go, girl.
I know it ain't easy
working for tips.
[ Phone beeps ]
Lord! In here?
[ Gasps ]
Sorry, girl.
-ChoirDaddy69?
-[ Phone beeps ]
Well, I'm about to get
man-laid by a lay man.
-[ Giggles ]
-[ Phone beeps ]
[ Phone beeps ]
ChoirDaddy?
Are you here?
[ Phone beeps ]
It says you are.
It's me, your right swipe!
[ Chuckles ]
-[ Phone beeps ]
-I'm here to play your organ.
Mmm.
-Sofa?
-[ Phone beeps ]
Mm.
[ Phone beeps ]
Damn. Bitch look good.
[ Giggles ]
[ Phone beeps ]
-All right. Come on, now.
-[ Phone beeps ]
Anticipation is great and all,
but I gotta get my gels done
in an hour, so let's go!
[ Phone buzzing ]
[ Phone beeps ]
My God!
Somebody needs a Band-Aid
or something.
[ Phone beeping ]
[ Screams ]
Ohh! Ohh...
Ohh! Mm.
Oh, hi.
[ Chuckles ]
You are...stiff.
-[ Growling ]
-Ooh.
[ Grunts ]
-[ Crunch ]
-[ Screaming ]
-[ Flesh tearing ]
-[ Screaming ]
[ Grunting ]
[ Screaming weakly ]
[ Evil laughter ]
Dance.

Back door cracked,
we don't need a key
We get in for free,
no VIP sleaze
Drink that Kool-Aid,
follow my lead
Now you're one of us,
you're coming with me
It's time to kill the lights
And shut the DJ down
-This place about to...
-Tonight...
-Come on, girl! Aah!
-We're takin' over
Come on. Yeah! Aah!
No one's getting out
This place about to blow
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Blow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This place about to blow
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Mwah!
Blow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This place about to blow
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Blow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
This place about to...
Go, go, go, go insane,
go insane
Throw some glitter,
make it rain on 'em
Let me see them hands,
let me, let me see them hands
Go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter,
make it rain on 'em
Let me see them hands,
let me, let me see them hands
Focus! This is a hospital.
It's not a cabaret.
-No, it's not.
-Ah!
-Yes, ma'am.
-Go to room 420.
Your patient
is a little impatient.
On it.
[ Cart rattling ]
You don't wanna -- Okay.
Good morning, Sleeping Beauty.
I brought Jell-O shots.
Okay.
I gotta get out of here.
Wait, wait. Okay.
Hold on a minute.
-No. Where's my stuff?
-Here. Let me help you.
Um, wait. Okay.
Easy, easy, easy! Hold on.
Give me your hand.
Give me your hand. Easy.
-[ Groans ]
-You all right?
-Yeah, yes.
-Okay. Lay back down.
-All right. Hello, Jas--
-Jane.
Jane. My name is Jane.
I just --
I haven't done all the paperwork
because I've been...
busy not breathing.
Hm.
Well, Miss Jane...
I'm really happy
to see you awake.
You got anybody I can call?
Text? Snapchat?
No. No, no, no.
I'm not -- I don't --
I'm not from around here.
But I feel really good,
so I can just --
If you just give me my stuff,
I'll just get out of here.
Okay.
How about we make a deal?
One more of these Sunny D's,
and meanwhile
we'll try to figure out
how to get you all cleaned up.
What flavor's the Jell-O?
Cut!
For the love of God, cut!
Cut a line, cut a bitch...
cut a quick edit
for your blooper reel, maybe?
It's step, step,
stay in the corner.
-No!
-Know your place!
Honey, this stage
is too damn small.
Kelsey.
Kelsey!
I'm -- I'm so sorry, Ginsey.
There have been some dropouts,
and so Dre said
to give Nico a chance.
Yeah, leaving me
without a busboy!
Oh, I'll rub your bar down
anytime, Slim Jim.
-Be my guest.
-[ Giggling ] You flirt!
Kelsey, my bestie just texted me
about a last-minute gig nearby
that pays more than my rent...
-No, no, no, no!
-...so I gotta run.
-No. No, please, please.
-I'm so sorry, Captain Kelsey!
-I love you!
-Oh, no.
Oh, what the freak
is happening tonight?
Ooh! Okay. Um...
Everybody...take five!
And, uh, doors are...
really soon!
Where are you, Dre?

[ Siren wailing ]

[ Horns honking ]
-[ Phone ringing ]
-Ah. One second!
[ Grunts ]
Hey.
Yasmine!
Hey!
Uh, what's your ETA?
[ Weakly ]
Dre, I can't come.
I'm sick.
You're what?
[ Coughing dramatically ]
Yasmine. Come on, babe.
You gotta pull through.
You're the --
You're the star of the show.
You don't even have to perform.
You just hand out candy.
-Dre, I'm...
-I'll have you home by 10.
-Ah-choo.
-Fuck!
Okay. Okay, Yasmine.
Feel better, all right?
That's right.
I'm way too sick for your
low-rent, played-out bar party.
Hm!

[ Phone chiming ]
Perk up, Yasminis!
I know you were
expecting me at Yum,
but I'll be coming to you live
from the VIP lounge
at Glitter Bitch!
Glitter Bitch Vodka, darlings.
Sip-sip!

Mmm!
[ Spits ]
Who makes that God-awful shit?!
Mm! How's my eye? Smoky enough?
Texas barbecue smoky.
Olsen twins house-party smoky.
Total smoke show.
You didn't even look at me.
Do you have any bars?
You still owe me 150
from last weekend.
Add it to my tab-tab.
Jax. Girl.
Girl, you can just
give me the whole --
No. Because I still
need to make my money.
Bitch, I'm-a pay you!
Why don't you trust me?
No, and apparently this is
supposed to be a good batch.
Oh, period.
Well, I'll be the judge of that.
Uno, dos, tres. Vmonos.
Ah! Don't pass out
before my number.
I'm a professional.
Besides, things can change.
You gotta stay flexible!
All right. Says the girl
who can't do a full split.
Bitch, I can do a jazz split.
Like, that little half thing.
-Yeah, honey, nobody does that.
-[ Phone beeping ]
-Girl, it works.
-[ Pops tongue ]
What's good, y'all?!
It's your girl Nico,
a.k.a. Scrumptious.
your Bushwick baby queen.
Come on in, y'all.
Hey, Tabby. Thank you
for the gravestone, boo-boo.
They're coming
to get you, Barbara. Ooh!
[ Giggles ]
I'm debuting at Yum tonight
with my dear friends Yasmine.
Scrumptious? What the fuck?
Who's that?
-Mm-hmm...
-Uh, he's just a friend.
It's my dealer.
The one who gave me the Oxys.
They're performing
with Yasmine tonight.
-Yasmine?
-Yeah. You know Yasmine.
She's, like, the world-famous,
sort of famous
for being so beautiful.
-Mm-hmm. Yasmine.
-Cheekbones.
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Okay. You're familiar.
You've heard of her.
Oh, I know know Yasmine.
Kind of iconic
that you know her.
I used to be a fixture
at Yum Party.
She and I, we were a part of
this core group, Ride or Die.
Dre, the producer --
we were close.
And...
Oof. That was another life,
another time.
Wait. So you know
where they are.
Can you get me to Nico?
You just had a hot
makeout session with death,
and now you're trying
to find your drug dealer?
No, I'm just trying to tell them
they have a bad batch.
-Ow!
-No!
-Geez Louise!
-[ Knock on door ]
Sam, can you swing
a double tomorrow?
Sure thing, boss Lizzy.
Okay. Your dedication
is starting to worry me.
I told you.
I'm in my adulting era.
Okay, well, adults need dinner.
Ooh! Thank you, big mama.
-Not a mama yet.
-[ Intercom beeps ]
WOMAN: All available nurses
to the front desk.
All nurses to the desk
immediately!
She's trying...for a baby.
[ Chuckles ]
[ Scoffs ] God.
Straight people are so cringy.
Not straight,
but I'm still cringing.
-[ Chuckles ]
-Lizzy and wifey...
secret Disney adults.
-No!
-Mm-hmm!
The ears.
The whole damn thing.
Oh, my God.
Like, what did we fight for?
Right?!
If Marsha could see it...
[ Sighs ]
More Jell-O, please.
Ooh, I got you.
[ Line ringing ]
[ Phone ringing ]
Lizzy. Fuck!
We're totally fucked!
Sorry.
What -- What's happening?
Ah. Yasmine bailed.
DJ's MIA.
And, um, toilet still clogged.
I knew Jimmy
wasn't gonna fix it.
Didn't I tell you Jimmy
wasn't gonna fix it?!
LIZZY:
Dre, babe, take a breath.
Yum wasn't supposed
to be forever.
Remember? You know,
maybe it's time to move on.
I don't wanna leave Yum
on a low note.
I can't do that
to Kelsey and the girls.
It's my legacy.
When Yasmine's a no-show,
these Brooklyn gays
are gonna call me
a gaslighter.
It's gonna ruin my brand.
Yasmine's not coming, huh?
Sounds like you're
up shit's creek, babe.
Yasmine bailed?
Ooh, I knew it.
Thanks. Supportive.
I could send Sam.
I mean, I could ask him.
-No! No! No!
-What?
No. No. No,
Don't tell her that.
-He is good.
-You're being messy. I'm not --
-DRE: Yeah, he's a legend.
-Don't say nothing else.
A once-in-a-generation talent!
And such a motherfucking
pain in my ass!
Well, I think he would do it.
No, Lizzy. I -- I can't
hold his hand tonight.
Okay? I can't risk him
ditching me again.
-Okay, maybe you should j--
-Baby, baby.
You're solutioning again, okay?
And I just need to vent.
Remember?
Fine. Then I won't tell you
how I fixed your other problem.
You what?
The toilet. Barry's on his way.
You're welcome.
-[ Doors open ]
-No. Your brother Barry?
Oh, shit. Okay. I gotta go.
Everything's gonna be fine.
I will be there tonight.
-Hey, Lizzy, no. Fuck! No!
-What the hell is that?
That's a big-ass bunny.
[ Woman speaking on P.A. ]
[ Telephone ringing ]
Fucking Barry.
MAN: Don't get
your panties in a bunch,
but it's a man and a woman.
What the fuck is
so complicated about that?!
And nobody knows
the true dangers
-of these hormonal cocktails.
-Fuckin' ridiculous.
Turnin' men into ladies,
turnin' ladies into...
God knows what,
untoward things.
And you think
these Democrats in Albany
are gonna do a thing about it?
Come on. Democrats.
Not gonna do a thing.
Wish Pauli Benedetta
would be a man about it.
No diatribes tonight, okay?
Just fix the toilet.
Whoa! What? I'm here.
Everything's fine.
Nothing is fine!
Oh, great.
-Just --
-Sorry.
-[ Whimpers ]
-Just calm...
Kelsey.
Well, hello to you, too.



-[ Click ]
-[ Gasps ]
Ooh! Ladies! Looking gorgeous!
Finally!
She decides to grace us
with her presence!
DRE: Damn. Okay.
Kelsey, brief me.
So, Jimmy won't budge
on the 70-30 bar split...
La Toilette is a disast...
and our go-go boy just...
went-went!
That's it?
Okay. I'll deal with Jimmy.
-Barry, toilet.
-Yeah, I'm gonna snake it,
but there better not
be anything, like, freaky
and fuckin' untoward
in there, all right?
Dre, you came with Yasmine,
because I was trying
to film a little
entre vista, entre nuke...
[ Mumbling ]
What did she just say?
Okay.
Team Yum...let's huddle.
Grown man with man parts
coming through!
[ Groans ]
[ Clears throat ]

DRE:
So...you look great.
Yasmin's not coming.
-Fuck you, Jupiter.
-Fair enough.
But I already tagged her
on my scheduled post!
Ms. Dre, you're telling me
that I'm hosting
and headlining tonight?
Oh, and all for
the same Yum price?
Okay.
Ginsey Tonic...
you know exactly how to
entertain this crowd, all right?
It doesn't matter if you're
up there for 5 minutes
or 95 minutes.
You will have them
eating out of your hand.
Um, excuse me.
Don't forget about me.
I'm-a have them
eating out, too, bitch, who...
Girl.
And we have Nico here.
I love your vibe, kid.
Tonight we're gonna
launch your career!
Look. Just call me Scrumptious.
But exactly. Like, that's
what I've been saying.
I was born ready.
Wow. Beautiful.
I love it.
Look. You all are unique.
-[ Belches ]
-You're brave. You're fantastic.
This is gonna be
an unforgettable night.
Kelsey, open the doors!
-But we're not ready.
-We're never ready.
That's how it always starts.
Open the doors.

[ Camera shutters clicking ]
Power is a fun thing
It's bringing out
the best in me
Just a drop is all I need
And now I can do anything
Doesn't it feel good?
Doesn't it feel right?
Doesn't it, doesn't it?
You want this clout I have
You want this money, right?
You want the power back?
I wanna see you try...
This is kinda sexy.
Oh. Babe, look.
Let's bang some pics for Pride.
[ Yelps ]
I want to see you try
Okay.
[ Camera shutter clicking ]
-Try
-Hi.
I'm, like, obsessed with you.
I love you.
[ Chuckles ]
What's your name again?
-Babe, chin down.
-Oh, sorry.
-Chin down.
-That?
Could you look like
you like her a bit?
[ Both laughing ]
Higher. A little bit lower.
Just a little lower.
Higher. Now lower.
-Slay Mama. [ Laughs ]
-Slay.
Let me see them.
We should go
to the photo booth --
I look stupid!
Why didn't you tell me
that I was sweating?
[ Chatter ]
GINSEY: Speaking of crushes...
Oh, my God.
It looks like Bushwick's
beautiful people
are out tonight.
Hi, beautiful people!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes! They're alive tonight!
Oh, yes, they are!
Yes, they are!
So many beautiful...
[ Gasps ]
We had like 200 presales.
Where is everybody?
Well, the moon is opposing
your Neptune in Aries,
which could be
a very chaotic time,
but Saturn is no friend of ours,
the great Malefic.
And this is her work.
[ Chuckles ]
I can only laugh.
And so can Chani.
Thank you!
GINSEY: Tell me, tell me,
tell me. How is it possible...
-Yeah.
-...in a room full of
polyamorous
and pansexual studs...
Relax, all right?
You're gonna get your money.
The night is...young-ish.
Yeah, well, I better.
I'm down three G's
in the last hour.
Fuckin' Luge-coin.
I tried to warn you
about crypto, bro.
Well, your party's on
thin ice, bro.
Oh. Speaking of ice...
[ Gasps ] Ooh!
My fianc is a lawyer.
Ahh.
Maybe it's time you got
a job like that, huh, Dre?
[ Scoffs ] Yeah.
I'm not really one for the --
-Rat, rat, rat!
-Here's your clog, freaks.
Aww! I thought
I poisoned them all!
That's a big one.
No. Nature finds a way.
Dude, what the fuck?!
Throw it away!
-No, no, no!
-Not in that trash!
-What are you doing?!
-It's a trash can.
No. A dumpster.
Goes in the dumpster.
It's not gonna
come back to life.
You -- Jesus Christ.
-GINSEY: Not tonight, though...
-Disgusting!
-BARRY: You're disgusting.
-Yo, I cannot be the only one
who had a crush
on the crucified Christ.
Come on, now!
He was half dead,
but he was well hung.
[ Laughter ]
That's funny. I like this guy.
Who is this guy?
"She." And who are you again?
Eww. Bye.
Uh, I'm Barry.
Dre's my sister's wife, I guess.
I don't know. Wait. Was he
going to the green-room john?
I'm not done
cleaning up in there.
-"They."
-No, it was the guy
that was just here.
-Mnh-mnh. "They."
-Yeah, the one guy.
[ Sighs ]
She...is a drag queen.
They...are non-binary.
And you...are behind.
So kindly...catch the fuck up.
GINSEY: Come on!
This ain't a free show!
I can't keep up with this shit.
Hey, Dre.
You got some motley crew here.
Are you talking to people?
Aww. Cheer up, Dre.
Sparse is like a vibe.
Think of it as like exclusive.
You know what I'm saying?
[ Dre sighs ]
GINSEY:
...find yourself, honey. Oh, no.
You'll find somebody
to take home.
[ Gasps ]
Ladies and gentlethems.
We are fixing to have us
a resurrection tonight!
Samonc is in the house, y'all!
-What?
-Ooh-hoo-hoo!
[ Groans ]
Lizzy, what did you do?
GINSEY:
Let's get this ham in the oven
and the show on the road!
Welcome to Yum Party, y'all!
Sam!
Wow! Here you are.
Dre. Here I am.
Wait. Hold on. Who's this?
Listen, Dre, I know it's been
a minute since we talked,
but I wanna apologize
about the --
No. Stop. You're here now.
And it's gonna be great, right?
What could be better than the
long-awaited return of Samonc?
-Say who-c?
-Let everybody know, okay?
Get online. Live tweet.
Samonc is here.
Girl, Samonc is literally
inside this entire valise.
I need a green room.
You know the way.

Okay, Google. Who's Samonc?
S-A-M...
Was there really a woman
in his bag?
[ Door opens ]


[ Crash ]
Oh, Christ.
[ Rats squeaking ]

Fucking rats.

Good night, sweet prince.
[ Thud ]



[ Lighter opens ]

Hey. The entrance
for the club's out front, pal!

Excuse me? You all right?
Miss! I'm talking to you!
Ma'am? Madam?
Your Ladyship? Sweetheart?
You okay?
[ Wheezing ]
All right. Live your life.
God. I fucking hate Brooklyn.

This is why I hate
doing favors for people.
It takes all fucking night.
[ Ominous music plays ]
[ Laughing ]
Samonc Allianc
Knowles Cartier!
Aren't you a sight
that makes my eyes sore.
Ginsey Tonic!
You don't look a day over 50...
pounds overweight.
[ Laughs ] Girl.
-[ Laughs ]
-Get in here!
-Hi.
-Oh, oh, honey. Oh, my God.
Now get me
out of this peep dress.
I'm practically pre-diabetic.
-Okay.
-I'm hot.
Is everyone hot? Okay. Great.
Uh, there's a sign.

So, Miss On-say Yon-say Bitch
who's in my seat...

...what's your tea?
You were starting to rise
and then suddenly fell off
the face of the earth?
Vanished. Went poof.
Shut your damn bus, boy.
Who raised you?
NICO:
Look, all I'm saying is...
"Samonc, a fan favorite,
no-show at Yum Fest."
Like, it's the first hit
when I Google you, so...
What's your name again?
[ Chuckles ]
Scrumptious.
It's a pleasure.
Oh. I've heard of you.
Okay. Don't be jealous,
Miss Bitch.
It's very unbecoming.

Okay. Next act ready in five?
-Thank you, five!
-Thank you, five!
Yo, I'm third, right,
Captain Kels?
'Cause I am not
going next, okay?
Why are you walking away from me
like you can't hear me?
I'm speaking at loud volume,
bitch, ooh!
And you?
Didn't anyone teach you
to call your mother?
I-I know. I'm sorry. I...
I've just been in my head
a lot lately.
Tell me what happened
that night.
I was backstage.
I heard the people
chanting my name.
My demons got a little loud.
I dipped.
Snuck out the door.
You balked. It happens.
Dre was pissed. She told you?
At full volume, pacing.
Now you just gotta
get back up on that stage.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
I've never had stage fright.
Never. Not even
when I was a kid.
Not until that night
and they wanted me.
They were hungry for me.
And I-I just couldn't.
Hey, hey.
Drag is not life or death!
It's fun! Come on!
What do you say you and me,
we go back out there,
we kill it?
Huh? Let's have some fun.
Samonc's
in the house, y'all
Samonc's
in the house, y'all
Samonc's
in the house, y'all
Unh-unh! [ Laughs ]
But she's not wearing my wig
No, she ain't wearing your wig.

[ Camera shutters clicking ]

Great work, babe.
30 thou likes.
[ Groans ] I don't even
have a verification badge.
I'm gonna kill myself.
Babe, you can buy verification.
Yeah, but I wanna
get it natural,
like my ass and tits, okay?!
My sister?
Brand ambo for Luge-coin.
Me? Working my skinny little
natural ass off for nothing.
The algo hates me.
Sucks, babe. You're way
hotter than your hot sister.
I know. Okay.
So, first I'm gonna
do a pouty face,
then you're gonna kiss my neck,
then I'm gonna flash you.
And then you're gonna, like,
do a little gasp emoji
sort of thing.
-I feel like that'll be cute.
-[ Growling ]
Okay. Ready? Kissy!
[ Camera shutter clicks ]
-[ Growling ]
-[ Screaming ]
-[ Flesh tearing ]
-[ Screaming continues ]
Diamonds on my mind
I'm freaking,
I'm freaking all night
Always on the grind
Look at me, look at me now
Just got a check
Fuck it, I could get it back
Mama got to earn
Bitches like you never learn
Dropping the top
Living it up
Lean in my cup
I flex in the club
Dropping the top
Living it up
Lean in my cup...


Look at 'em, look at 'em,
checking them thighs
Never think, never think,
never think twice
[ Music playing in distance ]
[ Breathing deeply ]


[ Gasps ]
Hey, baby.

-You okay?
-Are you okay?
[ Laughs ]
[ Groaning ]
[ Tapping ]
Fuck. [ Groans ]
So pretty.

You need a little inspiration?

Okay.
[ Giggles ]
Oof! That's all, folks.
[ Woman vocalizing ]


Yo, DJ, pump this party
Why waste your time?
You know
you're gonna be mine
You know
you're gonna be mine
MAN: Really freaky shit
happening in Manhattan.
Joey, what's it
looking like out there?
Joe-- Joey? Hey, Joey!
-[ Growling ]
-Get the fuck off of me!
-[ Grunts and shouting ]
-[ Flesh tearing ]
Ow!
You know
you're gonna be mine
You know
you're gonna be mine
Why waste your time?
You know you're gonna be mine
You know
you're gonna be mine
You know

I'm gonna get you, yes, I am
I'm gonna get you, baby
I'm gonna get you, yes, I am
I'm gonna get you, baby
I'm gonna get you, yes, I am
Shit, girl! Get it together!
I'll have what she's having!

[ Growling ]

Yo, DJ, pump this party

Heh. I still am single
if you wanna come try it, Jimmy.
Jimmy, Jimmy.
Something's not right, okay?
We got a problem.
Somebody out there is --
[ Camera shutter clicks ]
Aah! Bitch!
-Shit!
-What? Wait, wait!
No, no! Barry! Barry!

Hey! Everybody get back!

-Oh, my God!
-Oh, fuck.

-[ Music stops ]
-[ Screaming ]
[ Patrons shouting ]
[ Kelsey screaming ]
All right! Everybody out!
Everybody out!
Move it! Go, go, go, go!
Go, go. Go, go.
That was unintended.
Jax! Come on, girl!
I gotta pee so bad!
-Fuck, fuck, God, Jesus!
-[ Woman screaming ]
Girl, what the fuck
is going on out there?!
Kelsey. He stood on the bar,
and Dre -- and then --
-Girl --
-What the fuck is happening
in this bar right now?!
There's fucking blood
everywhere!
All right. All right, Nana.
Come on. You'll be all right.
Let's go.
Child, whatever's out there,
it's not that bad.
Come on.
[ Kelsey screaming ]
Uh, first-aid kit!
We gotta secure
the premises!
DRE:
Barry, you are a nutcase!
-Calling an ambulance.
-[ Door slams ]
BARRY: Fuck. Come on.
-All right.
-Ho...ly...fuck.
Who had an ax?
[ Barry muttering ]
What is this? A prop?!
NICO: I'm screaming.
That is nasty!
Okay. Um, I need
duct tape and...
Jimmy, I need vodka and
a clean rag. And I mean clean.
[ Nico shouting ]
You remember me. I'm Sam, okay?
You're gonna be fine, right?
Right? Okay.
Just breathe through it. Just...
-BARRY: Dre! Dre!
-Mm-hmm. Right. Right.
BARRY: We got to close
this fucking door!
Kelsey, tell me
something special about you.
Oh. I'm Captain of
the Gen-Z float...
-Okay, okay.
-...for Pride.
All right.
Aye aye, Captain. Okay. And --
-NICO: Here, girl.
-How's your crew?
NICO: Don't know what you're
gonna do with all of this.
They're incredible.
They're -- It's --
They're geniuses,
but the talent has been nonstop.
-[ Screaming ]
-I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
BARRY:
You're gonna be okay!
NICO: It is nonstop, baby.
I am nonstop.
I swear to God.
There's something very bad
happening out there!
You threw an ax at my intern,
you ass!
I know. I'm sorry.
It was an accident, sweetheart.
Can you just call Lizzy?
Please. Just call Lizzy.
-This does not feel good.
-For the sake of the talent.
-The talent?
-Uh-huh.
Well, it's been nonstop drama,
especially Nic--
Ohh! Aah!
NICO: Oh, my God.
That really is nasty.
[ Groaning ]
Honey, you want a drink?
That looks rough.
Can somebody please call 911?
I keep getting a busy signal!
-[ Emergency alerts blaring ]
-Bye.
What the hell?!
Oh, shit.
It's an emergency alert.
"Multiple aggravated assaults."
"All five boroughs."
"No motive established.
Shelter in place"?

I'm not trying
to stay here with y'all.
[ Breathing deeply ]
If you -- Just don't even...
"Shelter in place"?
-Okay.
-[ Grunts ]
Oh, you're not gonna...
Oh, God. Girl. Calm down.
I would give you a drink, but...
Stop. I'm pregnant.
Like, on purpose?
Oh. Sorry.
Something very bad is going on.
Andrea, I'm telling you.
That thing was not human.
You do not call me that.
BARRY:
That was not fucking human!
It didn't look right to me, Dre.
No. It was clawing at people.
It bit that little dancer kid.
That's why I threw the ax.
You think I'm fucking crazy?
Yeah.
BARRY:
Well, it had a face like a --
Like a corpse?
Yeah. Like an alien
or something.
Maybe it was a lizard person.
I read about them.
Oh, my God. This is a nightclub.
Someone gets out of hand,
you deal with it,
like a normal person.
That's not what
it looked like, Dre.
Disco lights,
uh, dark dance floor,
fucking fog machines.
None of you know what you saw.
Looks like we're not the
only ones who saw some shit.
Yeah, my feed is wall-to-wall
panic porn right now.
Not for nothing.
[ People screaming ]
Oh...
-Ooh.
-Good as new. See that?
-[ Loud banging ]
-[ Gasps ]
I got some -- I got
some chains behind the bar.
Yes!

Is that what I think it is?
It's still legal in the city.
-Holy shit!
-[ Laughs ]
No! No! Neither of you
knows how to handle that!
Put it down! Hey!
-I do.
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.
-Okay. Show me.
Why don't we follow
protocol, okay?
We all remember the basics.
"Shelter in place"
begins with cocktail hour.
I wanna go home!
Yeah, w-we're good here, Kels.
Dre's right.
You all should stay here,
and I should get back
to the hospital.
WOMAN: ...that a young
woman attempted to...
Bye. Enchant.
..."gnaw my effin' head
off the effin' D train."
-[ Ice rattling ]
-GINSEY: Shh, shh.
This harrowing account and...
Oh. And now we're
going live to the mayor.
Shh, shh!
Y'all, y'all, y'all, y'all!
It's the mayor.
Are we doing this? Okay.
Ah. Terrific. This guy.
My fellow New Yorkers.
Nobody -- Nobody needs
to be outside right now
except essential workers.
You know, NYPD, Con Ed,
the pizza guy. Heh-heh.
WOMAN: Mayor, we're getting
reports that sound like
something out of
a horror movie.
Um, all right. All right.
All right. Look, look.
We've all heard the rumors,
but let me be perfectly clear.
This is not
a George Romero movie.
There is no such thing
as a zombie, okay?
[ Scoffs ] Told you.
So just shelter in place,
stay calm...
WOMAN:
Your turn, May-May!
[ Woman giggles ]
[ Mayor chuckles ]
Look. This will all
blow over, all right?
Stay strong, New York.
Strong, New --
[ Long beep ]
Well, that was the mayor
joining us from...
-[ Vomits ]
-Oh, God!
-Will you stop doing that?
-[ TV shuts off ]
Or, like, pass some of those
surging hormones on to me?
I wish. You take anything?
Uh, yeah, I have
an estrogen guy, okay?
Or at least he tells me
it's estrogen.
You know, you could get a script
and not just "a guy."
Oho, yeah, like
I could go to a hospital,
like this hospital,
like, where everybody
fucking dead-names me
and pokes me and prods me?
-I am not interested.
-[ Intercom beeps ]
WOMAN: Attention,
all staff and patients.
Report to the cafeteria.
I repeat. If you are able...
[ Growling ]
[ Woman screaming ]
Fuck that.
We're getting out of here.
Thanks.
LIZZY:
Mr. Miller? You're awake?!
JANE: Is that an arm?
[ Gasps ]
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
-Fuck, Lizzy! What the fuck?!
-Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
I don't know! I don't know!
Oh, my God!
Fuck you!
[ Growling ]
[ Grunts and groans ]
What the fuck?!
[ Alarms blaring ]
That was kinda sexy.
Softball. Third base.
College World Series.
Come on. Let's go.
Oh, my God.
I'm running with a jock.
My father would be so proud!
-You have got
the Midas touch

You have got
the Midas touch


[ Growling ]
NICO:
Mnh-mnh. Not this.
DRE:
Okay, gents. Give me that.
MAN: Travel-sized energy
and vitamins. Everyone --
[ TV shuts off ]
We are going to stay here
and let whatever's happening
out there play itself out.
Nico, Ginsey,
I need you to gather supplies.
Water. Anything edible you
can find. Please and thank you.
Barry, why don't you...
secure the premises
or whatever?
-I did.
-Hey! Who put you in charge?
Barry, how about you and me
go secure the premises?
That's a good idea. Yeah.
Okay, okay.
But leave the front door loose.
Lizzy could be here any minute.
I got you.
-Sam, you got Kelsey?
-Yeah.
Aye, aye, Captain Dre, but first
I'm gonna go powder my nose.
-Bitch, really?
-NICO: What?
The free drinks
go right through me.
-[ Sniffs ]
-Mm-hmm.
DRE: So everybody knows
what they're doing, right?
NICO:
Ooh! Well, there you are, ho.
-[ Growls ]
-Holy shit.
It's one of those things.
Get back! Get back!
Barry, no! It's just one
of our dancers.
-Name's, uh...
-Jax.
-Look at him!
-We party together. Sometimes.
-Ooh!
-What the fuck's wrong with him?
Whoa!
Well, he look fine.
Uh, what did they take?
NICO: Well, Xannies for sure,
but I don't know what else.
They party, like, a lot.
Oh, my God.
SAM: Jax?
-No, I wouldn't do that.
-I wouldn't do that.
-Jax? Jax, I'm Sam.
Do you know where you are?
[ growls ]
-[ All scream ]
-Oh, shit! Oh!
Uh, no meth, no LSD?
Um, no, honey.
I am not that retro.
I'm gonna smoke
this fucking thing!
Barry! What the fuck?!
-No! Stop! They're my friend!
-No.
They're not your friend anymore.
We gotta put it down!
Barry, that's crazy!
Sam, tell him!
I don't know, Dre. I ain't
never seen no shit like this.
Fuck you! Look at him!
We gotta kill it!
What about what the mayor said?!
ALL:
Fuck the mayor!
[ Growling ]
Eeee!
Look.
They're just on something.
-No. I'm with Barry.
-Of course you are.
Okay, my cousin who's
a firefighter posted what to do
when you encounter aggressive
or nonverbal behavior.
Okay. And?
What did it say?
-[ Growling ]
-Do you really want to know?
ALL: Yes!
"Destroy the brain."
Hashtag decapitate.
Hashtag headshot.
Hashtag impalement.
-No, no, no!
-NICO: Oh, shit.
Shoot it in the fucking head!
-Jimmy, stop!
-Dre, this is my bar!
Yeah, but this is my party
and my talent,
and we're not
fucking killing anybody!
KELSEY:
Can't we at least kick them out?
-Yes.
-Um, hello? Dre? The go-go cage!
-Okay. Great idea.
-Get in the cage!
-Yeah! Yeah!
-Watch out, Dre.
Push him back!
[ Growling ]
-Oh, my Lord!
-What the fuck is this thing?!
DRE: Hey, look!
It's Nico, your friend!
BARRY:
Push his fucking ass!
Jaxxy.
Jaxxy, you want some drugs?
DRE: Oh, look! Drugs!
-Here. Come get a pill, baby.
[ Indistinct shouting,
Jax growling ]
Come on, boo.
Come get some drugs.
Get in the fucking cage!
-NICO: Girl, get your ass...
-BARRY: Lock the door.
-Oh!
-Get that door locked!
Go, go!
-Oh, shit!
[ Growling ]
[ All breathing heavily ]
Good job.
-[ Jax growling ]
-[ All scream ]
-What the fuck?
-Bitch.
[ Spitting ]
You believe me now?
-[ Exhales deeply ]
-[ Phone chimes ]
What is that? Is that
another emergency thingy?
No, it's just Skins.
Kinda like Grindr.
Wait. I'm sorry.
What was the name of it?
-It's an invite-only thing.
-But who's on it?
I'm single.
I'm looking for--
Gym rats and twinks only, Nana.
Sorry.
-I know. Such injustice, right?
-The world's going to hell
and you're thinking about
getting some?
Apoca-plypse sex is hot.
SAM:
Easy on the medicine, boo.
Mm! America's next top bottom
here is only 30 feet away.
25 feet.
20. Oh, shit, y'all.
-They go to the back.
-Green room.
-Wait.
-Here. Take this.
I'm gonna make sure
the front's closed.
All right. Be careful.
Hey, wait for me!
No. No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't put any weight on it,
okay?
-You stay here, where it's safe.
-Okay.
-We'll be back.
-I'll be fine.
Don't worry about me.
I'm f-- I'll be totally fine.
[ Chuckles weakly ]
I'll be fine over here.
[ Growling, hissing ]
Yum, yum, yum, yum.

-Oh, shit. Look out!
-Oh, my God!
It's one of those things.
I'm gonna shoot it.
-Wait!
-Ew! No. Don't shoot.
-God!
-Oh, my God. It's her!
Looky looky what the rapture
dragged in.
Oh, fun.
It's the sea witch.
You know what, champ?
Go ahead and shoot.
No.
Come on in, Yasmine.
[ Sighs ]
I had an ax in my leg
It was bloody
It was bleeding on the floor
Yeah, oh, yeah
And now I'm all alone
in a scary-ass room
[ Metal rattling ]
Oh.
Why do you think
we should help you
after you hung us out to dry
tonight?
Oh, shut up, Ginsey.
I know you put a hex
on my podcast.
Wait.
Who's that?
Samonc?
As usual,
you don't finish anything.
Not even getting dressed.
This is ludicrous!
Hello?
You could've got us killed
coming through the window.
-What is this?
-Right. We always keep the --
[ All screaming ]
[ Indistinct shouting,
zombie growling ]

Get the fucking tape!
[ Shouting, growling continue ]

Jimmy!
Jimmy!
-Oh, my God!
-[ Groans ]
DRE:
Oh!
Jimmy, you all right?
-Jimmy?
-SAM: Jimmy?
[ Liquid gurgling ]
-Oh, my God!
-Sam, do something!

-GINSEY: Oh!
-Shit!
-That's not good.
-Really?
Is he dead, Sam?
Is he dead?
Sam, is he dead?!
-[ Growling ]
-[ All screaming ]
NICO: Wait! No!
Oh, my God! Wait!
Wait!
I got the bulletin board!
[ Indistinct shouting ]
Get the fucking tape!
-Get something!
-NICO: I got it! I got it!
-Hold on! Hold on! Watch out!
-Give me the tape!
Give me the tape!
Give me the tape! Aah!
[ Shouting continues ]
I need tape!
NICO: Y'all, it's still
coming in here!
Bitch, get out!
Don't you even think about
coming in here!
That was my go-go boy!
I hired him!
Oh, my God. This is
my favorite bulletin board!
No!
[ Sobs ]
Slim Jim!
Oh, my God!
What the fuck was that?
Oops.
I was chased.
Mnh-mnh.
I'm fine
I'm just fine
Sitting by myself in my room
and I'm doing my own...
There's gonna be a whole lot
more --
[ Machinery whirring,
blade buzzing ]
Dre!
Sam!
-Dre!
-Kelsey!
-Oh, my God.
-Jimmy. Oh, Jimmy.

[ Coughing ]
DRE:
The door! The door!
What the hell?

Wow.
You all look healthy enough.
Greetings.
We're here for Kelsey.
Poppy!
Sweet angel.
-Are you hurt?
-Yeah.
Is that a bite?!
Damn it!
Did she get bit?
Better not be a bite.
Do you hear me?
-Do you hear me?
-It's not a bite.
No. No.
Nobody touched her.
-It was --
-I got an ax wound.
-All right. Quit bragging.
-What?
Who attempted to fell
this precious woman?
That one.

-[ Grunts, groans ]
-Oh.
BARRY:
Fuck, lady! Jesus!
Punched me in the face! What
the fuck did you do that for?
Who is this?
What is this person?
Piper Callahan, Esquire.
Oh, that's firm.
My group calls me Pops.
-Hi.
-KELSEY: My girlfriend.
Fiance.
Right.
Fiance.
[ Group murmuring ]
GINSEY:
Okay. I need a drink.
Too much.
Manhattan is under siege.
It's only a matter of time
until we're surrounded.
-We gotta make a move.
-And where do you plan on going?
-Queens.
-Ew.
-Oh, God.
-We got a boat to catch.
The ferry?
NICO: How the hell
did you get a ferry?
It's a co-op.
-[ Chuckles ] Shocker.
-Hey, twinkle toes.
I don't need
your running commentary.
The boat leaves at dawn
whether we're on it or not.
Okay. But, like,
how do we get to the boat?
POPS: [ Chuckles ] I don't think
you get it, party monster.
Women, NB, and family only.
Um...
That's all of us.
[ Chuckles ]
I don't think so.
-Certainly not this one.
-What the fuck did I do?
Weirdly, he is family.
And no, we're --
we're staying here.
We have some other people
that might show up.
That's good enough reason
to leave right there.
No. My wife, for one.
She's coming.
-She's probably dead.
-What the...
GINSEY: Shut your mouth,
you bag of hair.
What? It's true.
Shit's crazy.
Lizzy's gonna get here.
I have hope.
Yeah.
You're goddamn right she is.
I don't hang a lot on hope.
I like to make a plan
and execute.
That's how I made partner at 34.
Ooh.
I don't dance around
for decades,
hoping for the best.
-Wow.
-KELSEY: Poppy. So not chill.
Sweetheart, it's time to go.
-[ Zombie snarling ]
-Oh, my God!
-[ All screaming ]
-Aah!
Fuck!
Oh, my God!
I'm done finding storage
for these fucking things!
-They really don't bring me joy!
-The fuck is wrong with this?
-You don't know how to use it.
-I'm done with it.
-Fuck that thing.
-You might want to look away.
Why?
[ Drill whirring ]
-Oh, shit.
-Unh-unh.
-No. No, no, no.
-[ Whirring continues ]
Holy fuck!
[ Bone cracking, all screaming ]

Oh!
Oh, that's the coolest thing
I've ever seen!
[ Laughs ]
[ Zombie groaning weakly ]
[ Body thuds ]
Oh, look.
That was clean.
Yeah.
You ate that.
I need a drill.
-[ Siren wailing in distance ]
-Hey. You okay?
Yeah, yeah.
It's an old dance injury.
Okay. We're almost there.
We just gotta get to Barbara.
Who's Barbara, your wife?
No.
Barbara's my Impala.
Not a Subaru.
Nice.
[ Engine starts, revs ]

What's your status, soldier?
Deep bite,
definitely broke the skin.
You gotta do it, Pops.
You gotta euth me.
What?!
But not the drill, man.
Copy that.

Wait.
C-Can't we just wait and see?
She's got bit.
She's probably infected.
Possibly infected,
and it's "they."
I can turn any moment.
We got to do it.

Tell Cassanda I always loved
her.
-Pops.
-Oh, God, no!
Piper!
Can we be reasonable about this?
[ Ax clatters ]
POPS:
All right. New rule.
No preemptive stuff.
You're with us until you're not.
Understood?
Because...
Because shit's bad as it is
already.
Right.
That's what I said.
Why is everyone mad at me?
Two of the four of us
are compromised.
So I...need some time to think.
Just clean that up
and shut that fucking door.
Yeah.
I'll go secure the premises.
Oh, God.
That was a lot.
I'm sweating.
[ Line ringing ]
Come on, Lizzy.
[ Siren wailing in distance,
ringtone playing ]
[ Zombies moaning ]


So it's going on right there.
Breathe.
Ooh.
There it is.


I'll be back.


Dre?
You all right?
Can you help me?


Jax?
Jax, come on, girl.
I know you're still in there.

Oh, Jax.
[ Moans weakly ]


[ Line ringing ]
[ Phone buzzing ]

[ Moans weakly ]
Come on, girl.
Say something.
[ Muffled grunting ]
-[ Roars ]
-[ Gasps ]
[ Grunting ]
I'm sorry.
-Go to bed, girl.
-[ Grunts ]
DRE:
Almost there.
-Just one more step.
-SAM: [ Humming ]
DRE:
[ Breathing heavily ]
Fuckin' Jimmy.
Ooh
-[ Exhales deeply ]
-[ Laughs ]
You have a beautiful voice, Sam.
It's nice to get a compliment
from you for once.
Compliment you all the time.
Used to.
It's been a beat.
Yeah. Well, you used to show up
and kill it every night.
It's been a while
since I've seen that, too.
No. We're not about to do that,
not right now.
Oh, just be honest.
You were gonna flake on us
again, weren't you?
Mm-hmm.
You know last time you did I had
to refund everyone's tickets?
It's like $9,000.
Why is it always about money --
Wait. How much was it?
$9,730.
It's my first sellout.

I needed my friend that night.
Yeah.
Well, what I needed from you
was to show up
and kill it like you'd done
a million times before.
[ Grunts ]
Yum was finally
the hottest party in town.
Finally getting your due,
and you threw it all away
for some clock-puncher gig
Lizzy got you?
-Come on.
-Chapters change.
Clearly.

Clearly.

Did you even want me here
tonight?
No, Sam, I didn't want you.
-I needed you.
-[ Hinges squeak, door thuds ]
It's worse.
-Sam? Dre?
-[ Footsteps approaching ]
What the hell is wrong with you,
Nico?
I know how we get to this boat.
Bitch, what the fuck y'all doing
down here?
Come on.
Bring your ass.
Um, hello?
I know you heard me.
[ Door rattles ]

NICO: Earlier tonight.
The third photo?
What? I'm a little shiny.
It was hot, okay?
No, that's not what I'm saying.
That's you with that thingy
and a food truck.
It could fit all of us.
Oh. Yeah.
Girl, how could you forget
a food truck?
Sweetie, do I look
like I eat waffle?

-DRE: This is insane.
-Is it nearby?
-Yes.
-Not really.
-Two blocks.
-Two blocks.
What the fuck?
That is some grade-A
cyberstalking, twink.
Cheers, Coach.
If you were to procure
this conveyance,
I can get you to the waterfront.
But I can't guarantee that
you're gonna get on the ferry.
Y'all, let's fucking go!
Oh, I'm getting on that ferry.
POPS: From the canal road,
we head north a few blocks.
-But that's west.
-No, no. That's north, hon.
-West, you senile cow.
-No, it's north.
Looks west to me,
because if you go here...
-I got y'all.
-Y'all!
The subway map is tilted.
Wait. What the fuck are you
talking about the map is tilted?
[ Indistinct conversations ]
-Quiet!
-You're fucking insane.
It's a solid route.
So who's going?
Well, as assets,
I have three electric scooters.
But I'm staying here
with my girl.
I mean, this kid says
he knows the area, so...
Oh, yeah. I'll go for sure.
'Cause you're motley as fuck.
-Yeah.
-SAM: I'll go.
-Sam.
-Really?
All right.
So then who's the third?
-I gotta have...
-I'm not good at anything.
[ Group murmuring ]
-And Lizzy's coming, so I...
-I think I should probably
-at least change my outfit once.
-Yeah.
[ Murmuring continues ]
Un.
Deux.
- Trois.
-Gah.
Shit.
That leaves you all here
with, like, you know, no men.
-Oh, my God.
-Honey, the lipstick has spoken.
Fuck.
POPS: Things are getting
dicey out there.
Not just hostiles.
Cops too.
Yeah.
They're fucking with everybody.
Except first responders.
You got to look the part.
Oh...my...God.
-You know what this means.
-A fucking makeover?
-Yay!
-[ Laughs ]
And look at me all locked
and loaded and whatnot.

Oh, my God
Mix it up
They linin' up
down the block
-All right, now.
-Oh, my God
-Mix it up
-Okay.
They linin' up
down the block
What the hell is this?
What are we doing here?
We're about to change.
Stand back
'cause I'm bringing that fire
No.
[ Indistinct conversations ]
-Yeah.
-Very cute.
-It's giving that?
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-Nnh!
-Oh, my God
Mix it up
They linin' up
down the block
I'm like, oh, my God
-How's this?
-I got everything you want
[ Voice echoing ]
This could be cute. Like...
Hold on tight.
Mama's about to work.
-Bring me that tape.
-That's a little tight.
We're gonna Fawcett flick. Hey!
Fawcett flick...
He looks like he could be
a member at Nails.
-Get that out of here.
-Okay. Let's try this.
-Highlighter yellow.
-This one's good.
She'll stand out in the crowd.
-It's a say-something moment.
-Yeah.
-What is this now? What is this?
-A little bit, yeah.
-Mama made me match my...
-You're gonna look good.
-What's it gonna do?
-We're doing it, Barry.
Okay. Let's see.
Stripper Firefighter.
Bob the Bedazzler.
And...
Super Mario...
at the Caulk on Second Avenue!
Fuck yeah.
Mnh!
You look like
the Essential Village People.
Sometimes it does take
an essential village.
Ginsey, what the hell
are you doing?
[ Chuckles ]
My mind's made up.
Mama's coming with you.
-You are not going out the --
-Baby.
Big Bear was right.
[ Laughs ]
-This is woman's work.
-What are you talking about?
-I'm all ready to go.
-Hush up, hon.
-I'm ready to go --
-Buh-- Shh!
Your princess is in
another castle.
[ Chuckles ]
I'm scared shitless.
But the hardest part
is showing up.
I'm here with you, Sam.
POPS:
Just hurry.
If you're not back in time,
we're heading out on foot.
And I can't walk.
[ Sighs ]
Good night, Kelsey.
Pay my bar tab.
Hey, um, just...come back
in one piece, okay?
Hey.
You be careful out there.
Period.

Period.
I like that.

-NICO: Ooh.
-[ Zombies moaning ]
Oh, my God.
GINSEY:
Decaying while they hit refresh.
SAM: When there's no room
left in hell,
there's an app for that.
Wow.
That was deep.
All right, bitches.
Come on.
-Oh, my God.
-I love your jacket.
-Oh, she look cute.
-I hope you win.
[ Laughs ]
Oh, my God.
Girl, this is like the most
fucked-up TikTok I've ever seen.
-Keep going.
-Why does he look like that?
-You bitch. Wait up.
-Sam, hurry.
-I'm coming. I'm coming.
-Hurry, Sam.
NICO:
What the hell is happening?
-Oh, my God.
-Excuse me.
Do you smell that
or is that just me?
[ Whimpers ]
-[ Grunts ] Ooh. Ooh.
-Oh.
-Oh!
-Wait a second, y'all.
This is nice.
Okay.
It's giving budget, y'all.
See, that's what
I'm talking about.
My girl Yasmine know
where to go.
Nah.
They designed all this stuff
to look all chic
and shiny on a little screen,
but it's just...
All fake.
-Like lipstick on a pig.
-Okay.
But, y'all, they got Haribos.
-Ooh! Throw me one!
-Top-tier gummy.
NICO:
You got it, girl.
-What a waste of mints.
-Okay, bitches. Who could drive?
Ooh.
Right here.
Yeah.
-Thank you.
-I got this.
I'm'a be honest. I don't know
what to do with all this.
But I'm gonna eat it
'cause I'm hungry.
-Is it a dick toner?
-Listen. And this is a clitoris.
-That looks good.
-You eat it like...
-You go, like, right...
-MAN: Hey!
-Not so fast.
-Yeah. What youse up to?
Hey. Easy. Easy, bro.
We're first responders.
MAN:
Oh. Is that right?
'Cause it seems to me
like youse are up to something.
-Oh, shit.
-Nah, bro.
We gotta go downtown.
Just got called up
by the station.
[ Deep voice ]
Court Street, ASAP.
Okay.
Why don't you give me the keys?
Don't.
Give him the keys.
Now, now, now!
-Okay, okay! Here! Here.
-[ Keys jingling ]
Now, there's just
one more thing.
You have the right to remain...
-Bushwick!
-...Bushwick!
-Aah!
-[ Screams ]
-All night long!
-[ Coughing ]
'Cause we don't shelter
in place.
-No, no, no.
-We shelter...
-In your face!
-...in your face!
-Aah!
-[ Coughing ]
-Are you fucking kidding me?
-Whoa. Okay. Thank you.
-That's rude.
-[ Coughing ]
I saw somebody die tonight, and
probably more are on their way,
and you're just fucking out here
pranking?
No, no, no.
Slutty Margaret Thatcher
is right.
This is an emergency.
And we should take emergencies
so, so seriously.
Like an emergency.
[ Engine starts ]
MAN: Don't forget to like
and share, huh?
I love you!
[ Indistinct conversations,
laughter ]
[ Tires squeal ]

Those fuckers.
Those fuckers.
Are y'all dead-ass
not even about to mention
how you just tossed away
our best chance of survival?
Look. I think the best thing
we can do is go back to Yum.
And then we can do a plan B.
[ Chuckles ]
I'm not going back with y'all.
Man, y'all don't give a fuck
about me.
You just see me as some drug-
dealer street rat from Bushwick.
Nico, nobody thinks that.
Man, you don't treat me
like no real queen.
Y'all won't even...
What?
Y'all won't even call me
Scrumptious.
Fine...Scrumptious.
Let's go home to our friends.

My only friend here is dead.

Nico!
Nico!
[ Sobs ]

Does anyone have a ring light?
-I don't.
-[ Electricity crackling ]
-Aw, Jesus Christ.
-Come on.
-Really?
-Yasmine!
YASMINE:
It wasn't me!
BARRY:
The fuck are we going?
You know, uh, Kelsey mentioned
that she was engaged.
You're, um...not exactly
what I was picturing.
Well, you're exactly
what I was picturing.
-Oh, yeah?
-Yeah.
Soft butch, shy smile,
charming, exploitative.
-[ Rat squeaking ]
-DRE: What?
Ooh!
Did you hear that?
-[ Rat squeaking ]
-Oh, fuck!
Ugh! God!

-[ Grunts ]
-[ Thud, rat squeals ]
Nice shot.
Golf team, Division I.
That's how I paid for Berkeley.
-Nice.
-That's pretty hot.
Good backswing and everything.
POPS: What are you, like 35
and still promoting parties?
Yeah. Well, I guess I'm not one
for the rat race.
-You mean a real job? Flake.
-The fuck?
BARRY: Hey.
Dre's pretty tough, actually.
Yeah. I said flake,
not snowflake, you moron.
-It's here.
-All right. I see that.
I mean,
I'm sure she could scrap,
but could she handle a 401(k)
or a disaster plan?
No.
And I'm sure you're no better.
Hey, you don't know me.
I got three years' worth of MREs
back at Staten Island.
Yeah. A fat lot of good
that does you here.
Yeah. Well, a fat lot of good
your 401(k) does you.
-I was gonna get that.
-Yeah, okay.
And what do you mean
I'm exploitative or whatever?
I would say opportunistic.
That was the wrong word
that I used.
Ladies! Okay?
We don't got time for this.
We got bigger problems.
Everyone here is cool with me,
okay?
-Let's just get along.
-You know what?
We don't give a rat's ass
about your approval.
Guys like you have
total contempt for us
unless we're here saving
your behind.
BARRY:
What are you talking about?
You're the one who won't let me
on your rescue boat.
Yeah. We were doing pretty good
until you barged in here.
Or should I say scooted in
with your little pink outfit.
Yo, Dre!
Come check this out.
There's some good stuff
down here.
-What are you doing?
-Look at this.
-All this shit.
-That's actually pretty good.
POPS:
Oh, fuck. That's not funny.
Open the door.
Oh, shit.

JANE:
Where are we going?
Oh!
I...I should know my way by now.
I've been here so many times.
I'm just...
Wait. No. I'm sorry.
I'm lost. I'm lost.
I got to -- I got to call Dre.

-I forgot my phone!
-What?
I am always losing
important shit.
-God.
-It's fine. It's fine.
I have mine. I have mine.
What's -- What's Dre's number?
Oh, my God.
I don't know.
I don't know
my own wife's number.
I don't know
my own wife's number
in some kind of, like,
weird apocalypse.
-How am I gonna be a mom?
-It's okay. It's okay.
Plus I can't remember my phone.
I can't remember
my wife's number.
Lizzy, what the fuck is that?
Oh, my God.
-Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
-Oh, my God. It's a mom!
-Lizzy, we have to go. Drive.
-No. It's pregnant.
-It's holding a baby.
I have to help.
Lizzy, helping whatever that is
is not gonna make you
-a better mom.
-No, no, no. But it will.
It will not.
Lizzy.
Lizzy!
What a stupid-ass move.
What are they thinking?
They're gonna get themselves
killed.

Gins, I don't think I should
be going back there either.
What?
What are you talking about?
Y'all don't need me.
Dre sure doesn't.
GINSEY:
What is it with you young ones?
It's like you need
a personal engraved invitation
to say you belong.
I need you.
We need you.
Samonc brings us laughter
and joy and--
You keep talking about her,
about Samonc.
I locked her up so long ago,
I don't know if she exists
anymore.
[ Chuckles ] Baby, she's...
she's been here all along.
She's, like,
pouring through the cracks.
She's, like, leaking out
all over here, Sam.
-[ Hissing ]
-Oh! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!
I think I've been bit!
It is one of them,
and I have been bit in the butt!
I have been bit!
Is it on my butt?!
-It's a little hole, but it's --
-Where is the hole in my ass?!
[ Screaming,
shouting indistinctly ]
-Calm down.
-Sam! Oh!
-Holy God!
-Get off my friend!
Release him, you bitch!
Oh, my God!
Hurry, Sam!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!
-Aah! Damn!
-[ Zombies snarling ]
You have 30 seconds.
I will drive this car away.
I will get it!
Shit.
Hi! Hi!
[ Moaning, hissing ]
No. I'm okay.
I come in peace, okay?
-I'm a nurse.
-[ Moaning ]
I see that you're holding
a baby.
-[ Wheezing ]
-You can just hand me the baby.
It'll be fine.
Yes. Okay?
-Can you hand me the --
-[ Hissing ]
Oh, my God. What is that?
Oh, my God. That's not a baby.
That's not a baby!
Oh, no.
No. There's more of them!
There's more!
No! Abort! Hide!
DRE: What kind of door
doesn't have a key?
POPS: You know what?
I'm not alone in here.
-What do you mean?
-Who's in there?
-What are you talking about?
-Oh, fuck.
-[ Rats squeaking ]
-Something not right about this.
-Why do they look like that?
-Fucking rats!
There's fucking tons of them.
Don't let them bit you!
-Kick them off!
-It's on your back!
BARRY: Oh, shit! It's climbing
up your fucking leg, Pops!
-Oh, shit!
-Oh, my God! Get it off me!
-Get it off!
-That's very bad!
Sam, they are well dressed
and hungry!
Okay. Okay.
Go, go, go, go, go.
Let's go.
Get in here.
-Come in here, Sam. Hurry!
-[ Screaming ]
[ Zombies growling ]
Come on, Barry.
Help me get it open.
We're gonna get you
out of there.
No!
No. There's too many.
You got to --
You got to save yourself.
BARRY:
We're not gonna leave you!
Yeah. Just...
Just get Kelsey to the boat.
Just get Kelsey!
Keep fighting!
We're not gonna leave you!
The password to the boat...
is...
-DRE: Don't do it! Don't do it!
-..."Labia"!
-[ Screaming ]
[ Electricity crackling ]
BARRY: Oh, that's bad.
It's really fucking bad.
[ Electricity buzzing softly ]
Dre.
She's gone, okay?
We got to go.
"Labia."
I don't know what that means,
but remember that.
Come on. We got to get
the fuck out of here!

Kelsey.
BARRY:
Come on!
-[ Groaning ]
-Come on. Come on. Come on.
[ Zombies snarling in distance ]
-Oh, God.
-You okay?
-I'm okay. Are you okay?
-Yeah.
We're good. We're good.
Oh, my God, Sam.
[ Whimpers ]
GINSEY: We're gonna be fine.
We're gonna be just fine.
-SAM: Oh, God.
-GINSEY: Oh, my God.
Where'd they go?
How are we gonna
get out of here?
[ Zombie snarling ]
[ Screaming ]
Oh, my God!
Not the neighbor chick!
Ginsey, help!
-[ Snarling ]
-Fuck! Ginsey!
Oh, my God!
Get off of him!
Holy shit! Oh, my God!
Get off of me!
[ Zombie snarling ]
Aah! My --
Holy fuck! You bitch!
Ginsey!
Get off of Sam!
Get off of him!
[ Screaming ]
[ Thud ]
[ Gasps ]
Get -- Get up, Mama.
[ Exhales sharply ]
[ Weakly ]
I don't think I can.
I finally landed
in my death drop.
-[ Chuckles weakly ]
-No, no, no.
I'm-- I'm'a come down
to get you.
-You just hold on, okay?
-No, Sam. Listen to me.
Samonc is not something
you can build a wall around.
I need you...to show the world
who you are.

-[ Voice breaking ] Please go.
-Ginsey, please.
-Ginsey, please. You got to --
-Sam, I need you to go.
Please -- Please go!
I cannot have you see
what happens next.
[ Sobbing ]
Go, Sam.
Please, please, please.
-I love you.
-Please, Sam!
Just go.
Please go!
-[ Screaming, sobbing ]
-[ Whimpers ]


[ Zombies snarling in distance ]


[ Door rattling ]


Barry...w-what's going on?
We, um...

Piper's gone.
-What?
-What the hell happened?
What do you mean, she's gone?
There was...rats.
There were so many of them.
They were crawling up her legs.
-They -- They fucking...
-She, uh...
-Biting people, and then she...
-...had a thing.
...thing.
Do you mean she's dead?

Yeah.

No.
[ Voice breaking ]
Poppy!
[ Sobs ]

-[ Screams, sobs ]
-[ Fist thudding ]

[ Breathing heavily ]



[ Zombies growling ]


[ Line ringing ]

[ Ringing stops ]
Lizzy?
Lizzy, hey.
Hey.
[ Static crackling ]
-Who's this?
-[ Zombies growling ]


-[ Thud ]
-Oh, my God!
-JANE: Fuck, fuck, fuck.
-Okay. Here's the thing.
We are close.
I know we're close.
And they are slow.
I say we run for it.
No.
I will never make it.
Oh, my God. Your knee.
What's wrong with it?
-Is it a meniscus? What is it?
-I don't know!
I never went to a doctor.
I fucking hate doctors!
-It's just...
-What?
It started hurting one day
and my dance teacher,
-she gave me Oxycontin and --
-Okay. That's so fucked up.
-She was trying her best!
-Oh, my God.
[ Voice breaking ] Oh, my God.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
-[ Metal creaking ]
-Okay. Listen.
If we get out of this,
you have to let me help you.
I don't need a mother, Lizzy.
No, but you need a nurse.
[ Zombies snarling in distance ]

YASMINE:
To Pops.
-GROUP: To Pops.
-[ Glasses clink ]
[ Zombies growling ]
Fuck.
You know what?
Dre, what are you doing?
I am doing what we do.
Don't you know the situation
we're in?
-It's life or death.
-DRE: It's both.
It's always both.
[ Switch clicks ]

Yes! Finally!
Oh!
Pop it

I guess we're dancing.
[ Zombies moaning ]


Come on.
Poppy would've wanted it
this way!
Give me what you got
-[ Zombies moaning ]
-[ Exhales deeply ] Okay.
[ Glass squeaks ]
What's happening?

They're starting to leave.
-Oh, my God.
-What the fuck happened?
They're leaving.
-[ Exhales deeply ]
-What the fuck was that?
[ Zombies moaning ]


Hey, bitch,
you gonna really find out
All that shit
you was talking about
Better run
when you hear that
Well, fuck it.
Said hey, bitch,
you gonna really find out
All that shit
you was talking about
Better run
when you hear that
[ Zombies moaning ]


LIZZY:
What the hell was that?
So...nurse.
Yeah?
Do you prescribe?
[ Chuckles ]
Yeah, I prescribe.
PT, PT with an NBTPT,
and a side of CBT.
-That's it.
-[ Both chuckle ]
That's your prescription.
I guess it beats calling a drug
dealer every couple of weeks.

[ Phone buzzing ]

Hello?
Girl, what you doing?
You're with who?
Where y'all at?
Oh, hold on, girl.
I'm coming.


Uh, is your friend doing okay?
'Cause, uh, she looks -
uh, they look a little --
Yo, yo.
Hey, hey.
I'm still here.
Yeah. Right.
Okay.
Yeah, you let us know
if you start feeling...
feeling it, you know?

Hey.
You all right?
-Yeah.
-Listen.
Lizzy loses her phone
like once a week, right?
Yeah. Yeah.
Do I look worried?
I mean, I'm scared shitless.
It's a fucking nightmare
out there.
But I'm not worried about Lizzy,
okay?
She's tough.
She's smart.
She's gonna be here.
I promise you, all right?
Yeah. Yeah. You're right.
Yeah.
And she's sly too, you know?
She was playing that baby card
pretty hard
to get me to come over here
tonight.
What?
I'm gonna be an uncle.
It's fucking incredible.
I'm so excited for you guys.
Listen.
Whatever that kid is -- boy,
girl, they, them, whatever --
I'm teaching that kid
how to plumb, okay?
It's important.
-Lizzy's pregnant?
-Pop it
Yeah.
You didn't know?
No.
No.

All right.
You didn't know?

She is.
It's exciting.
This is good.
This is good.
-DRE: Having a baby.
-BARRY: Yeah.
That's wise.
-But now, the timing.
-Yeah. You want to hug it out?
Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah! [ Chuckles ]
Family now, motherfucker.
Ah!
Having a baby.
I'm got to get diapers...
and a crib.
-Yeah.
-We should build a crib.
-I can do that.
-I'm gonna be a mom.
That's great.
Have a shot.
Yeah. Okay.

Thank you.
[ Zombies groaning ]



Samonc!

Ginsey?
SAM:
We're gonna have to go on foot.
But I know how to clear
the streets.
Dre, get ready for the wildest
party we've ever thrown.
This club is about to be
at capacity.
We got to armor up.
Do I have to do anything?
Yes, bitch.
-You too, girl.
-Nice.
SAM: If we want to get
the hell out of here,
we got to let those
motherfuckin' monsters in.


[ Electricity whirring ]

Get it up, get it up,
get it up

Get it up, get it up,
get it up

Get it up, get it up,
get it up

Get it up, get it up,
get it up

Get it up, get it up,

[ Zombies moaning, hissing ]

SAM:
Dre? Showtime.
Let 'em in.
[ Metal jingling ]


[ Zombies groaning ]

Holy fucking shit.
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
[ Zombies moaning ]
[ Growling ]






Back door cracked,
we don't need a key
We get in for free,
no VIP sleaze
Drink that Kool-Aid,

Now you're one of us
You're coming with me
It's time to kill the lights
And shut the DJ down
Tonight we're takin' over
No one's getting out
This place about to blow
Oh, oh, oh
Blow, oh, oh oh

Aah!

[ Thud, zombie grunts ]

They're behind you.
Sam! Behind you!

[ Explosion, zombies snarling ]
[ Grunts ]

Shit.
-[ Grunts ]
-[ Zombie screeching ]

Oh, God! You're so beautiful,
but you're so fucking scary!
[ Screeches ]
-[ Thud, bones cracking ]
-[ Hissing ]

That's how you use that thing.
Nice fuckin' shot.
[ Hinges creaking,
music playing in distance ]
The street's clearing.
Tiger, you okay?
Okay.
Stay stealth and follow me.
KELSEY:
What the fuck?
[ Breathing heavily ]
[ Thud, metal jingling ]
[ Zombie hissing, snarling ]
What the fuck?
Shit.
Barry, come on!
Oh, fuck.
-Dre, bring your ass! Let's go!
-We got to go! Let's go, Dre!
Oh, shit.
[ Grunts ]
-[ Zombie hissing ]
-Um...

Biathlon...

championships.
Third place.
-Thanks for asking.
-[ Zombie hissing ]

Take my shoes, yeah.
I can, uh, get out of here.
Whoo.
Whoo!
Holy shit!
[ Both laughing ]
-BARRY: Oh, shit!
-I can't believe it worked.
There was a woman
with a fucking wig like this.
She almost ate my face off!
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Dre should have been out here
by now.
-YASMINE: She's not out here?
-BARRY: What the fuck?
-Damn!
-Wait, wait, wait!
SAM:
No!

Dre!
Sam, what are you doing?!
[ Grunting ]
Come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on.
-There's so many!
-Shit. Oh, no!
[ Zombies snarling,
music stops ]
[ Voice echoing ]
YASMINE:
Hi, Yasminis!
-It's time for some BTS.
-The hell?
You won't believe it.
This night has been cuh-ray!
But don't I look fabulous?
Yeah. Survivalist looks
definitely good on me.
I need my followers
to stay alive.
Excuse me. Let's go.
Hold that. Let's just go.
You need to run, dump, hide.
Love you all.
Survive, survive.
[ Chuckles, smooches ]

Come on, Dre!

[ Zombies snarling ]

Good night, Yum.
[ Arrow whistling,
glass breaking ]
It's been a party.

BARRY:
You all right?
I thought you was
right behind us!
You all right?
BARRY:
Oh!
-Okay.
-SAM: Quite enough. Let's move.
We got to go.
Let's get the fuck out of here.
We're gonna have to go on foot,
all right?
-Okay. Yeah, yeah.
-Sorry.
Okay. Come on.
Come on.
DRE:
[ Groans ] God!
Move your asses!
Come on, y'all. Damn.
-Whoo!
-Hey, hey, hey, come on.
T, come on. You're with us too,
Come on. Hey, where you going?
[ Zombies growling ]

-What you doing? Come on.
-I'm not gonna make it, man.
-No, no, no. You are. You are.
-I'm not gonna make it.
I'll give you a fighting chance.
I'll just hold them back...
for as long as I can.
You go.
-I don't want to leave you.
-No. You got to go.
[ Doors rattling ]
Go!
[ Zombies snarling, hissing ]
Fuck.
Come on. We got you, man.
We got you. We got you.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

-Barbara?
-[ Horn honks ]
NICO:
Here we a-a-a-a-are!
What's my name, bitches?!
-Oh, shit! Scrumptious!
-Scrumptious!
NICO:
[ Laughs ] Stupid bitch!
-Lizzy?
-Dre?
-Oh!
-Hey. Be careful.
-She's with child.
-I know!
-You do?
Yeah. Barry told me.
He ruined it.
This is bad timing, but I'm...
I'm so happy!
-[ Laughs ]
-I knew you were gonna make it.
I knew you'd be here!
[ Grunts ]
-Hi!
-Mm!
-You look beautiful.
-Thank you, boo!
Okay. This is really cute
for y'all, but we got to go.
SAM: You right. You right.
Come on. Come on, y'all.
YASMINE: Oh, my God, Captain
Kels, not you still injured.
See, that's what I'm saying.
Like, what was you gonna do?
That was pretty amazing.
I do have some notes, though.
Bitch.
Coming back to save me?
Pretty extra.
Yeah, I know.
Everybody loves a happy ending,
right?
[ Laughs ]
Yeah.
Come on, bitch.
Titanic me.
YASMINE:
Okay, Samonc. I see you.
Whoa!
Damn!
Okay!
Queen shit!
[ Indistinct conversations,

[ Horn honking, birds crying ]
[ Indistinct talking on P.A. ]
[ Wind blowing,
helicopter whirring ]
...thank you for riding
the Staten Island Ferry.

Walk up in the room,
all eyes on me
When I step up on the spot,
baby girl, you're gonna see
When they say your name
They know they getting stunts
and shenanigans
I drop into the spot, they go
wild, they cannot handle it
Chest out, popped, and some
the shoulders real back
Look left, look right,
now you're ready to attack
When they hear
that click-clack
Then they know
it's goin' down
From the stage, baby girl,
you the talk around town
Show 'em all
what my mother gave me
Can't keep it to myself

Tease and please,
and go on and go crazy
Come here.
Let me give you a show.
Baby, make an entrance
Come on and strike a pose
Put down those defenses
Make sure everybody knows
Hit that beat with your heel,
make the dummies squeal
Do a drop, make it pop,
show me how you feel
Purr, kitty cat
Let the queen out my cage
And tap, tap, tap,
I'm'a work the stage
Make an entrance
Strike a pose
Put down those defenses
Make sure everybody knows
Make an entrance
Strike a pose
Put down those defenses
Make sure everybody knows
Steppin' out on the town
with my girls all around
Turnin' heads left and right,
make 'em drop to the ground
When you see her whole land,
she not ready for your reign
Wave hello
and keep it pumpin'
Ain't no time
for playin' games
You want to make an entrance,
baby girl, take some notes
Get your pumps laced up,
move straight to their throats
Do your oaths, get your life,
keep that chin up high
Pop for me, sis,
now shake that thigh
Pump, pump, pump
Hit a pose, pose, pose
Do a twirl, twirl, twirl
Do that, girl, girl, girl

Show 'em all
what my mother gave me
Can't keep it to myself

Tease and please,
and go on and go crazy
Come here.
Let me give you a show.
I'm proud of you, girl.
You answered.
[ Laughs ]
Uh, is there a car outside?
