Horrors of Netflix: Vegas in Space
If there’s one thing that comes close to tickling the fancy of a moviegoer more than midgets, talking dogs or Mickey Rourke, it’s drag queens. You dress a man up in a wig, tuck his sack back, put him in a leopard jump suit, apply an inch of over-the-top makeup and you’ve got something the entire world wants to see (right?). Vegas in Space takes things a step further, because they put drag queens on a movie set accented with an obscene amount of plastic wrap, cardboard cutouts and hula hoops. How do you not want to watch that? Just brush aside the subpar acting and witless dialogue. There are men walking around in stilettos!
Of course, you couldn’t care less about the plot with all that other wonder and merriment going on, but in the interest of full disclosure, I’ll give you a synopsis. Basically, three space travelers are sent on a mission to Clitoris, the universe’s first prefab pleasure planet. The problem is, they’re male, and only females are permitted to touchdown on Clitoris. So, they all take a gender reversal pill and *poof* they’re women. Once safely there, they begin work to discover who stole the empress’s jewels, the only thing that can stop the devastating earthquakes that are rocking planet Clitoris.
But like I said, you won’t care about any of that, because Vegas in Space is less of a movie and more of a platform to showcase the uniqueness of the drag queen fashion sensibility and to camp it up for the camera. If you don’t like watching men strut their stuff in wigs, aside from being in total denial, you probably won’t like this movie. Now, if you do decide to watch it, I have some recommendations. First, don’t watch it in your underwear like I did. You’re watching drag queens, put on your evening wear for God’s sake. Second, don’t expect the title to make any sense. I didn’t see one slot machine or roulette table the entire time I was watching. And third, don’t be upset that the queens have nicer legs than you do. Drag queens are genetically engineered to be free of chunky thighs.
Vegas in Space can be found on Netflix’s Watch Instantly or Amazon.
