Produced by World of Wonder's Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato and directed by Adam Shankman, the 92-minute film stars RuPaul and leans fully into absurdist comedy. According to Variety, the producers describe the project as both entertaining and healing—turning disaster movie conventions into collective therapy through laughter.
