00:01Previously on Dragula...
00:03Welcome, lost souls, to our cursed ghost town.
00:07Tonight, we've condemned our remaining drag monsters
00:10to summon ghastly new looks and characters.
00:13Sigourney, I just wanted to check, are we okay?
00:15No, my feelings are still hurt.
00:17Congrats on showing up for episode five.
00:19Glad you're finally here.
00:20JK is trying to fight me because I've been safe too much,
00:23and for some reason, that's a problem.
00:26I think that insecurities are acting out.
00:29You know, I know who I want to be standing at the top with me.
00:33And who you want to play.
00:34Whoever makes sense in the moment.
00:36If they're all focused on the wrong fucking things,
00:38I can basically do whatever the fuck I want over here,
00:42and then get to the finale and really fuck some shit up.
00:44And the winner is Abora and Sigourney.
00:48Blackberry and Cynthia, you are both up for extermination.
00:52Sigourney did four exterminations and made a finale.
00:56Let's remember, this is a competition.
00:58It is comparative.
00:59Blackberry's gonna stay.
01:00She's got a better track record.
01:01This is one of the scariest moments of my fucking life.
01:04I'm not going anywhere.
01:06Not today.
01:07Not tonight!
01:10The Phantom of the Opera.
01:20Moulin Rouge.
01:21Cabaret.
01:22Evita.
01:23All legendary stage spectacles that have entertained audiences for decades.
01:29But none of them hold a flickering, fishnet-clad candle to the musical masterpiece of Season 6's Rat House vs. the Snake Pit.
01:39It truly brought the audience to their knees.
01:44It was our first full-blown stage musical, and while the episode made millions for us,
01:50some of you squealed, complained, and even had the audacity to throw tomatoes at our darling little production.
01:57And that was your first mistake, ugly.
02:00Because if there's one thing you can count on, it's this.
02:03If we get the chance to torture you, we'll do it with ghastly glee.
02:09But we're getting ahead of ourselves.
02:11We don't want to ruin the surprise, so...
02:14Slip into something slinky.
02:16Grab your gutter belt and your poils.
02:19Because tonight's performance will leave you shivering with antissa.
02:25Say it. Say it.
02:28Patient.
02:35Good morning.
02:37It's a new day in the dungeon.
02:40So what horrors await us today?
02:43Oh, just seeing who comes back.
02:45I don't think we can go wrong here.
02:46I mean...
02:47Both are talented.
02:48Both are friendly.
02:49I really, really think that my sister Cynthia went home.
02:54I don't know.
02:55It just kind of makes sense with the way things have been going, but you never really know.
02:58Cynthia's been in the bottom twice, but Blackberry had two weeks in a row of, like,
03:03a major malfunctioning prop that affected her look.
03:05And it seemed to shake her really badly, too.
03:07Yes.
03:08Absolutely.
03:09I've never seen her that insecure.
03:10She's definitely the kind of person who, like, does drag really well.
03:13So, like, once it doesn't go the way that she plans it, I saw it click very quickly.
03:17Yeah.
03:18And she was like, oh, shit.
03:19Yeah.
03:20I don't know if Blackberry's been slipping a little bit.
03:22I feel like she's been kind of all over, like, up and down.
03:25I've seen really, really great things.
03:27And then I've seen some things that are questionable.
03:30I've heard through the grapevine that consistency wins the patch.
03:33So, I don't think two malfunctioning props are going to get in her way because she deserves it.
03:39Out the way!
03:40The doll is here!
03:42I knew it!
03:44I knew it!
03:45Look at that, bitch!
03:46Really?
03:47No!
03:49Gag boots.
03:51Now, I'm super, super happy to see my sister.
03:54I'm glad she's still here.
03:55But I really thought this was the time that she was going to stay in the ground.
03:59She won't die.
04:00She really won't.
04:01Bitch, I'm back and I am not going to be stopped.
04:04Nobody can stop me at this point, bitch.
04:06Nobody.
04:07The snakes have spoken.
04:10You know, Blackberry did have a win.
04:12But the thing was, was she was showing progression.
04:16And I have been showing progression.
04:18And track record, it doesn't matter.
04:21I wouldn't say it doesn't mean shit.
04:22Not a single one of us should be comfortable.
04:23Definitely moving forward, like...
04:25It's what you do in that week.
04:26Absolutely.
04:27We're getting too close to be like, well, you had a great run.
04:30You know, you gotta win week one.
04:32No, you gotta win.
04:33And Blackberry didn't even have half of an outfit the other week.
04:35So, like, what?
04:37Whoa.
04:38I really don't think that this show should be based on track record.
04:42And that's coming from me, who has an excellent one this time.
04:46I do believe that if you do good work, you should be allowed to continue.
04:51I am very excited to see you back.
04:53I will say I am absolutely gagged.
04:56I'm truly gagged.
04:59It's sad to see her go.
05:00I showed her the door.
05:01I'm surprised, but I'm very excited.
05:04But I'm very, very happy.
05:06But it is absolutely time for sister to put up or shut up.
05:09How are the snakes?
05:10Tell me the snakes.
05:11Tell me the snakes.
05:12Tell me.
05:13No.
05:14Okay.
05:15So, being in the coffin tied up, that part wasn't bad.
05:17It was when the snakes started like...
05:19Wait, tied up?
05:20They tied you up?
05:21They tied me up.
05:22I said, okay, here we go.
05:23Got a lot of kindness with that.
05:24But then they bring in small snakes, which were still big.
05:27And then they bring even bigger snakes in.
05:30And then they bring a big huge snake on me.
05:32And then I was like, are they about to put Dahlia in this casket with me, bitch?
05:36I was nervous.
05:38And I will say, it is one of my biggest fears.
05:41I was not...
05:43I wasn't having it.
05:44Bitch, I am a warm body.
05:46These snakes were gripping to me as if I was going to be their lord and savior.
05:50I just, like, don't like big snakes.
05:53Leave that shit to Florida.
05:54I don't think my anaconda don't want none.
05:56I'm happy you're here, but it doesn't mean it hurts any more to lose...
06:00No, of course.
06:01To lose our first season five sister.
06:02Oh, get used to it.
06:03Oh.
06:04I think season four has had its time.
06:06But what were you going to say, Cynthia?
06:08At the top?
06:09I was going to say, like, it could be anybody's game at this point.
06:12Or anyone's end.
06:15Currently, Sig and JK are fucking terrible.
06:18And I'm living.
06:20I wouldn't say that it's heated up because of me.
06:22I would say that it's continued because of me.
06:24Because they probably could have worked this out at some point.
06:27But I didn't allow them to really talk.
06:30I just kept them pissed off at each other.
06:32So...
06:34So, Garni, I think you've worn beautiful gowns.
06:36I think it is your time potentially next,
06:39because I've seen high conceptual thoughts
06:41from every single person here.
06:42And I think coasting on, like, pretty gowns
06:45is not going to be enough.
06:46Hmm. Hmm. Interesting.
06:48And that is how I feel.
06:49I guess you'll be feeling that on your way home?
06:51I'm not the next to go.
06:53There's no way.
06:54There's no way.
06:55I'm supposed to be here.
06:57This is...
06:58This is meant for me.
07:00Let's not forget that I'm the one
07:03that has been dealt every single curse.
07:06And yet, I am still here.
07:08Every single curse?
07:09Show determination and strength.
07:11I think I was the only one that cursed you.
07:13And Eva put me down in the bottom episode one?
07:15Wasn't a curse, it was a vote.
07:16So you got one curse.
07:18Oh, okay.
07:19Do I think Sigourney Beaver is playing the victim?
07:21Why?
07:22Yes, I do.
07:23All season fucking long.
07:28I said exactly what I thought.
07:29Yeah.
07:30And that's that.
07:31Mm-hmm.
07:32And then it was the,
07:33guess you're going home quip for the 40th time.
07:35Sig, I do think that you do say a lot of things,
07:37like, well, your funeral, well, it's your time next.
07:40It's like, I mean, we don't know how this is gonna go.
07:43No, we don't know how this is gonna go,
07:44so it could be anyone.
07:45I have better things to do than smash my head into a wall.
07:47Sorry.
07:48Are you sure?
07:49I can't even go.
07:50I can't even go.
07:51I can't even go.
07:52I can't even go.
07:53I can't even go.
07:54I can't even go.
07:55I can't even go.
07:56I can't even go.
07:57Take me away.
08:08It's just a jump to the left, ugly.
08:11And then straight into the grave.
08:13What the?
08:15This week we're resurrecting a challenge that the fans hated,
08:18and it will push your performance abilities
08:20to their final gasping limit.
08:22You'll all be starring in a scene
08:24from the Belay Brothers Horror Picture Show.
08:27What was hated?
08:30Our twisted tribute to the midnight movie
08:32that warped a million minds.
08:34That means acting, twirling, swirling,
08:37singing, and dancing.
08:39Just raw, exposed talent.
08:41Or complete bloody disaster.
08:44Each of you will take on a role in our original musical number.
08:49And it's up to you to breathe unholy life into it.
08:53We want eerie elegance, theatrical depravity,
08:56and performances that could raise the dead.
08:58Or at least get them to throw popcorn at the screen.
09:00Yeah!
09:01Yeah!
09:02So learn your lines, hit your marks,
09:03and for hell's sake, stay in key.
09:09Oh my god!
09:10Oh my god!
09:11It's time to take the stage.
09:13Let's see if you're ready for your big scream debut.
09:16Oh my god!
09:17Oh my god!
09:18Oh my god!
09:19Oh my god!
09:20Oh my god!
09:21Oh my god!
09:22Oh my god!
09:23Oh my god!
09:24Oh my god!
09:25Oh my god!
09:26Oh my god!
09:27Oh my god!
09:36My look for the Belay Brothers Horror Picture Show
09:39is inspired by different elements from the original film.
09:42There's spacey, retro vibes mixed in
09:46with this clown custom character that I made.
09:49And I have a plan to sort of deconstruct the look a little bit
09:53for the musical part of the challenge.
09:55So, technically, they're getting kind of two looks.
09:58I've been doing musicals since I was 10 years old,
10:00on and off.
10:01And drag was kind of like my replacement for theater.
10:04And getting to sing on the Dragula stage
10:08and to get to play another character this season
10:10is just another reason to be so excited.
10:13So, I'm, yeah, I'm pumped.
10:17My group look, my inspiration,
10:19was something very cutesy, very innocent-y,
10:22very, like, half up, half down ponytail.
10:25You know, something fun and flirty, but still conservative.
10:28And this look is for the individual floor show,
10:33which is separate from the performance.
10:35I'm trying to do something sassy and unique,
10:39but recognizable.
10:40And, of course, there's a boa.
10:43Hopefully, if this turns out right.
10:47I want to make it very clear that it's Rocky Horror,
10:49so I'm going to do something that's a la Frankenfurter,
10:52that's a safe concept that can be executed very well.
10:55My inspiration this week is a mad scientist.
10:59A lot of body modifications and still sexy.
11:02I'm not the most excited about where I stand
11:05in the competition right now,
11:06so I'm really banking on going over the top
11:09and just really having a full over-realized look
11:13and making sure that all my props work.
11:16I'm going to be having this jacket
11:18that is basically filled with these bulbs here.
11:20It's like from the 90s when I was a child.
11:23I used to always have one of these in my bedroom.
11:25And what I'm going to do is kind of fill in these holes,
11:29made room for these, and I'm going to glue that,
11:32and I'm literally just going to be fucking mad on this floor show,
11:36and I'm so excited to show it.
11:40Step up. I'm coming.
11:41My congregation, a blood moon stains the heavens tonight,
11:46but have no fear.
11:47The Lord's light surrounds us.
11:49No wicked force shall ever confound us.
11:52Stay pure, my flock.
11:53We are guarded by grace.
11:55Through him we are safe.
11:56No temptations to face.
11:58Then why does the wind feel so good near my holy place?
12:02Holy place?
12:05Holy place.
12:06That's your entrance.
12:07Holy place.
12:08You say, oh, God.
12:09You enter.
12:10You have to see something.
12:11You enter and then I say, I react to you.
12:13Okay, let me start.
12:14I would say we should enter maybe like near my, you know,
12:17holy place and, you know, we're here.
12:19Yeah, because she has to see us.
12:20Holy place.
12:21Holy place.
12:23Oh!
12:24Sorry, darling.
12:25God isn't here.
12:26Oh, God.
12:27Just endless pleasure.
12:28That's okay.
12:30You guys are just very prepared.
12:32Rehearsal's going good.
12:33Abora and the vampires are, ah.
12:38We're the blood moon fanging, looking for a fang bang, feeding on the blood of a cure.
12:45They need some work.
12:47Okay.
12:48So our roles this week were assigned by mother Swanthula Boulet.
12:52And honestly, it's very clear they want a good musical this time because all of our roles
12:57are kind of eating.
12:58Look, okay.
12:59We all saw the musical My Season.
13:01Welcome to season six.
13:02It was rough.
13:03It should have been yours.
13:04I agree, but I still want a redemption of a great musical.
13:23Sure.
13:24All the way around.
13:25You think this is going to be it?
13:26We can all say yes.
13:27No.
13:28Yeah.
13:29The role I wanted is a big role, but it doesn't have to sing much.
13:32So while I cannot sing, I can fumble my way through this.
13:36So it looks like vampire number three and the reverend are kind of the strongest look.
13:40Biggest part.
13:41So is this an Eva versus Jay battle to the death?
13:44Ooh.
13:45I mean, it would kind of make sense.
13:47Yeah.
13:48Because, I mean, the walls are very thin and I've been hearing plodding behind my back.
13:52Yes, because you've done incredibly in this competition and it's a musical theater.
13:56So something that you are very strong at, but we also know that this is around the episode
14:01where things start to dip.
14:02So I just hope that you're able to get through this without fumbling.
14:06Well, that's how we know we're doing good is Jay's out to get us.
14:09Well, I mean, don't be so concerned about where I'm going to dip because, I mean, like,
14:13I've been doing musical theater since I was 10 and I'm really looking forward to this.
14:17If I may, you just made yourself, like, a bigger target in my mind.
14:20Like, this is a musical talent and you literally just said that you've been doing musical theater
14:23and theater since you were 10.
14:25All this targeting bullshit, this competition is about talent.
14:28So what can really we do to affect each other's performance except for psychological bullshit?
14:32I don't know.
14:33Dahari has been playing everybody here.
14:34Dahari has been playing everybody here, haven't you, sister?
14:37No.
14:38You don't think so?
14:39I don't think so at all.
14:40Let's talk on it.
14:41Let's talk on it.
14:42Bitch, fuck her.
14:43That bitch is going around.
14:45She's telling everybody one thing and then another and then another and no one's calling her out for it?
14:51What the fuck?
14:52I think you're going to be lovely, but let's not count out the fact that you do have more.
14:56Like, you have more, but you also have a lot more to do and there's more room for you to mess up.
15:01Sure.
15:02Like both of you, I have done theater and musical theater forever, so I wouldn't count me out.
15:06This is Jaharia trying to get into Eva's head.
15:08Jaharia's played with everybody but Eva.
15:10Sorry, bitch, it's your turn.
15:11Yes.
15:12Here's the thing.
15:13I thought if it's on her mind, maybe, just maybe, she would fuck up.
15:17Cynthia sees all.
15:18I know how things are working and I'm just sitting there looking pretty.
15:28It's the day of the musical and I'm so excited.
15:32The rehearsals have been stellar.
15:35Everyone has just risen to the occasion and I think we're going to knock this out of the fucking park.
15:39This floor show is mad important for me because this is the only way that's going to keep me in this competition is my floor show and my performance at this point.
15:46I was in the bottom last week and I'm not ready to go home.
15:49I know, Cynthia.
15:50You must be fucking clawing at the walls for a win right now.
15:53Yeah.
15:54The only thing that I can do is prepare, prepare, prepare all the way up until I hit that stage.
15:58Absolutely.
15:59I can't stop preparing.
16:01No.
16:02And that was my fault last time was I was like, oh, this works now.
16:05It will work up there.
16:06Going up there.
16:07It didn't work.
16:08No, bitch.
16:09I'm going to make sure everything is fucking going on.
16:11You know, I just have to learn from it.
16:13And that's all I've done my whole life is learn.
16:16Cynthia Penelope doll.
16:18I do love that.
16:20Even this is going to sound shady at first, but just power through.
16:23Even after coming from the bottom with no wins, you do not get down at all.
16:27No.
16:28You're the Cynthia doll that walked in episode one ready to kill shit.
16:31And that's impressive.
16:32It's such a dark world out there.
16:35And I just don't want to be another problem.
16:38And see, that in itself is also a lot of growth because there was a moment where you weren't listening to fucking nobody.
16:44Well, that was when I was mad.
16:46I did not care.
16:49I have to be solid shimmery gold for the floor show today.
16:58So I started with a water activated gold base.
17:01And now to make sure that the contour stays, going in with a glitter gel to cover everything.
17:07I'm making sure that I set my makeup down fiercely.
17:10The setting spray makes it so the base is solid and then you can smear the glitter on without losing the makeup underneath.
17:15Attention competitors, the floor show is about to begin.
17:29Ah!
17:30Ah!
17:31Ah!
17:32Ah!
17:33Ah!
17:34Ah!
17:35Ah!
17:36Ah!
17:43Ah!
17:46Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
17:49Ah!
17:51Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
17:56Welcome, my fellow Transylvanians, to our new favorite way of torturing you.
18:19Namely, making you listen to our cast sing live.
18:22That's right, uglies, tonight we're mixing one of your least favorite things, a Dragula
18:28musical, with a film theme that's responsible for turning half of our cast into sweet transvestites.
18:35That's right, darlings, it's our Boulay Brothers horror picture show, The Musical.
18:41Here to help us judge tonight's floor show is a man who has given himself over to absolute
18:46pleasure, and who is our resident Rocky Horror expert, director Darren Stein.
18:52Darren, my darling, welcome to Transsexual Transylvania.
18:58Thank you for having me.
19:00Don't dream it, drag it.
19:02And our next judge is a writer and director of many incredible drag musicals.
19:07She's a queer cult drag icon and co-host of the Midnight Mass podcast with Michael Verratti,
19:12the one and only Peaches Christ.
19:14Peaches, are you ready for the sonic transducer to seduce you?
19:19Oh my god, am I ready?
19:21Look, I'm thrilled to be back, and ever since I heard about this week's challenge, well,
19:25I've been shivering with antici...
19:27Sand.
19:35Mason!
19:39Now, the curtain is raising and the RKO radio tower is glistening with light, which means...
19:45It's time to do the time warp...
19:48...again!
19:48Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
20:18Ha, ha, ha.
20:48Ha, ha, ha.

22:20Ha, ha, ha.
22:22Ha, ha, ha.
22:24Ha, ha, ha.
22:26Ha, ha, ha.

22:36Ha, ha, ha, ha.
22:38Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
22:40Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
22:42The blood of the pure
22:44From the planet of Fangora
22:46Where pleasure is along
22:48When you think you've had enough you want more
22:50By Pandula and Drachmorda
22:52Fangora claims the altar
22:54Stip the saints, choke the cleanse
22:56Sacrifice to your desire
22:58Not much are too heathens
23:00In your faces, form it'll be delicious
23:02Blood moves, bang bang
23:04Taking control
23:08Blood moves, bang bang
23:10Let's go
23:12Blood moves, bang bang
23:14Baby, let the sin and begin
23:16Cause it's a blood moon, fang bang
23:24The silver cup is not what it seems
23:26That's the Lord's blood
23:28Don't make a scene
23:30Look how it trembles in my hand
23:32Why is it vibrating?
23:34I don't understand
23:36The blood of Christ is emptied out
23:38Let's taste the sin
23:40That pulses out
23:42What's going on?
23:43I feel possessed
23:44But please don't stop
23:46This is the best
23:48Hey, what's that? I've never seen one before
23:50This is a rosary
23:51Don't defile the Lord
23:53Forget the blessings
23:54Blessings
23:56I know that you need a little discipline
23:57For how you're gonna be
23:58You cast my face into desire
24:00But oh my god
24:02My soul's on fire
24:04You want more?
24:05No
24:06More
24:07Huh?
24:08More?
24:09Yes! More, more, more
24:10Blood moves, fang bang
24:12Taking control
24:16Blood moves, fang bang
24:18Come on, let's go
24:22Blood moves, fang bang, baby
24:24It's the surface of sin
24:26Cause it's a blood moon, fang bang
24:28Our father who reigns in line
24:40Protect us from this cursed night
24:44Deliver us from fang and flame
24:48And send these creatures on their walk of shame
24:52Look how sweetly you pray
24:57But I see a hunger aching to be fed
25:02Thou shalt not lie with man as with woman
25:05The word is clear
25:07I fear no illusion
25:08Your body tells your true confession
25:12So why the sudden resurrection?
25:18We're the blood moon, fang bang
25:21Looking for a fang bang
25:23Feeding on the blood of the pure
25:27This is all just a test
25:29God is here, I am blessed
25:31And I only bend the knee
25:33For the Lord
25:35But the path you know is full of chains
25:38Here we're free from all the shame
25:40Leave him
25:41Huh?
25:42I will not take what I am not given
25:45Your hell is to keep your desires
25:47Hidden
25:52Wait!
25:53God said, be glad in your youth
25:55And I'm still young enough to live my truth
25:58Now that's a sermon worth repeating
26:00His heart is racing
26:02So fresh for feeding
26:04No more fear or hesitation
26:06Pleasure is your true salvation
26:09Bite me, break me, take me whole
26:12I offer you my wicked soul
26:15Blood moon, fang bang
26:17Looking for a fang bang
26:18Feeding on the blood of the pure
26:20Turn the planet up in gore
26:22Where pleasure is the law
26:23And when you think you've had enough
26:24You want more
26:26We're burning hot
26:27We got the fix
26:29Now pleasure is our genesis
26:32Break the vows and kiss the flame tonight
26:36Yeah, yeah!
26:38Blood moon, fang bang
26:40Taking control
26:42Blood moon, fang bang
26:44Come on, let's go
26:45Blood moon, fang bang
26:46Come on, let's go
26:47Blood moon, fang bang
26:48Can I get an amen?
26:49Amen!
26:50Blood moon, fang bang
26:52Can I get an amen?
26:53Amen!
26:54Amen!
26:55Ah, this musical was so stellar. It was such a tough fight on the stage tonight. I think it was the perfect opportunity to don our Transylvanian body armor and make that tough decision.
27:20We had to change. We couldn't come in here all soft looking. You were given Sabrina Carpenter though.
27:26But I want to start by saying I love that you choreographed this with KC and that you guys did such an amazing job.
27:34I mean, it's a vast improvement from season six. Let's just say that right out of the gate.
27:39We needed to prove that we could do it, right?
27:41We didn't have a gay last time. We didn't have a gay.
27:44That's true.
27:45And if you're going to do a musical, you must have a gay. And if you have two gays, forget it. It's over.
27:49Forget it. It's done. And you get what you got tonight.
27:51Yes.
27:52But it didn't hurt that all six of them absolutely showed up and delivered.
27:57I do think Abora missed a few beats, but I didn't even know that he was capable of this.
28:03I'll say this. She was one of the roles that had the most involved choreography and she might not have been 100% there, but 75% for sure.
28:10Well, listen, Paula Abdul, I wasn't at the rehearsals and you were. So you can tell me who screwed up and who didn't.
28:17Right. Well, I'm letting you know.
28:19I'm just glad she didn't hit the camera because I don't need to put in an insurance report for that shit.
28:24Yeah. Let's talk about JK. JK took every single movement, line and opportunity to make the absolute most of that preaching and brought it to that kind of crazy evangelical level.
28:36Yeah. And I thought it was brilliant.
28:37Now let's talk about Eva.
28:39As far as Eva's solo runway look, it was sexy, which I appreciated, but I didn't see very much Rocky Horror in it.
28:45Yeah, because what you saw was Bozo the Clown. It was a full blown clown outfit. It looked more like killer clowns from outer space than Rocky Horror.
28:53But I have to say, she completely destroyed this challenge.
28:58It's true.
28:59I mean, she was perfection on stage.
29:01I had my eyes on her the whole time and that's a sign of a seasoned stage actor.
29:05Now let's talk about Cynthia.
29:07I got the Rocky Horror because she had the little triangle. The colors were in the outfit too, that sort of aqua marine color.
29:14Yeah. And I loved the whole electrodes like all down the costume, but the whole image added up to being a little confusing for me.
29:20Gotcha.
29:21Cynthia and Sigourney's roles I think may have been the smallest.
29:25I think Sigourney really kind of took it to a place where our eye kept kind of going back to her.
29:30And I think Cynthia struggled a little bit to keep the attention.
29:33What did you think of Joharia?
29:35I thought Joharia was a standout, honestly.
29:37I loved the reveal.
29:39Flawless.
29:40It was completely inspired by Rocky Horror.
29:42And I thought the singing Joharia was really soulful and gave it so much energy.
29:48If we could isolate her track, I think you would be blown away.
29:51Well, we have a lot to think about.
29:52And I'm looking to Darren and Peaches to really give us their input because I am not a theater queen.
29:58I am not a theater gay.
29:59That is not my thing.
30:00I don't love a musical.
30:02I fucking hate it, actually.
30:03But I love it only because it tortures the fans.
30:06Yes.
30:07I think it's time we complete this Transylvanian panel, invite Peaches and Darren up here, and begin judgment.
30:33Welcome, my fellow creatures of the night.
30:36It's time to do the time warp again.
30:41Darlings, I cannot stress this enough.
30:43How absolutely electric you were.
30:46It was wild.
30:47It was wonderful and wicked.
30:48You were all a Graveyard Smash to direct.
30:53The musical went great.
30:54We worked really hard, and I think it showed.
30:56Right?
30:57Did it?
30:58I don't know.
30:59I know I was early on, like, three-time run-throughs, but I was just excited.
31:02It's time for your critiques.
31:04Let's start with J.K.
31:06J.K., you had a challenge to play the Reverend, and your persona was incredible.
31:12Your characterizations were great.
31:14I'm just so impressed.
31:15Bravo.
31:16And also, the fact that you would choose Rocky for your runway look is brilliant.
31:21It is so unacceptable, like, unexpected.
31:23Unacceptable.
31:24It's unacceptable.
31:25Unacceptable.
31:26But you nailed it.
31:28With the Reverend, I thought it was really smart that he was, like, a genderfucked Reverend.
31:32And the pussycat wig?
31:33Is that what the wig's called?
31:34The bus driver wig?
31:35That the Reverend wore was everything.
31:37I know that that broken heel was unplanned and unintentional, but I actually think you took that moment and it just made the performance better.
31:46Well, no one knew it until you sat.
31:48It was brilliant.
31:49How could you tell?
31:50Performance was incredible.
31:54I really did not know that you could do all that.
31:57I'm seriously impressed by your abilities.
32:00You're welcome.
32:01I was surprised that J.K. took the biggest role in a musical and didn't even try to sing.
32:06Not at all.
32:07Didn't try.
32:08The rest of us sang.
32:09Didn't even try.
32:10Not once.
32:11Just decided he wasn't gonna sing.
32:12Next, Abora.
32:14I love when you threw off the cape.
32:16Sorry.
32:17Jeez.
32:18Throwing off the cape was incredible.
32:19It was pure frankenfurter.
32:21But I kind of felt like I lost energy from there.
32:23Performance-wise, it just didn't feel quite to the level of the rest of the competitors.
32:27Thank you there.
32:28I did not know that you could sing and dance like this.
32:32Yeah, you missed a couple of the marks here or there, but I was impressed still.
32:37You attacked the vocals, like, ravenously.
32:40And character singing and conjuring up that goblin voice isn't the easiest thing for everybody.
32:46It ended up where the three vampire voices really complimented each other.
32:51All of you.
32:52It's the best thing I've ever seen at any of my visits to Dragula.
32:56And you just happened to, Abora, be amongst a group of people who were really perfect.
33:01So it was noticeable that you were, you know, made a mistake here or there.
33:04Overall, you were still great.
33:06Thank you, peaches.
33:07That bitch can't dance.
33:09She should put her thing down, flip it and reverse it down the trap fucking door.
33:15I don't know.
33:16I think she could have pushed herself a little more off a bridge.
33:19Moving on to Jaharia.
33:21Your physicality during the performance was fantastic and mesmerizing.
33:25You did a great job.
33:27But I will say, much like Abora, Eva may have upstaged you guys a little bit.
33:32And believe me, I know exactly what it feels like to constantly have to fight for attention on
33:36stage.
33:37And to be upstaged.
33:41Jaharia, when you turned the corner, the glam was just impeccable.
33:45And you picked up on the choreo instantly.
33:47You were helping other cast members.
33:49You were super strong.
33:51Thank you so much.
33:52This is my favorite look of the night.
33:54I'll just go ahead and say it.
33:55It is.
33:56I think you did a fantastic job on the challenge.
33:58Thank you so much.
33:59This dress is something that Tim Curry would wear in the sequel to Rocky.
34:03God.
34:04I also thought your performance was great.
34:05Your singing voice.
34:06Your singing voice.
34:07It was giving me Tim Curry meets Judas from Jesus Christ Superstar.
34:11Like a rock voice.
34:12Period.
34:13It was a lot of fun.
34:14I thought you did a good job.
34:16I appreciate it so much.
34:17The dress is stunning.
34:18But if you don't have something better on underneath, then you should just stay dressed.
34:24Ooh.
34:25Jaharia.
34:26The high notes she was hitting.
34:27Did you hear that?
34:30Oh.
34:31She was in our element.
34:32Next, Eva Destruction.
34:34Eva, you were giving full star quality in this production.
34:38I was drawn to you just completely transporting and narratively satisfying.
34:43Performance wise, I thought you had a lot of great moments.
34:46This was your playground.
34:47I didn't see one flaw in anything you did.
34:49I actually liked this version of the look better than the first look.
34:53Because the first look for me was giving clown and I don't know what.
34:56I was like, how does it have to do with Rocky Horror?
34:58But I'm like, it's kind of a new interpretation of it.
35:01So I'm good with it.
35:02I think you did a great job.
35:04Thank you so much.
35:05When it came to the musical, you stole the show.
35:08I was really watching you specifically on the parts of the performance when the attention
35:12was not on you.
35:13You took every moment to amplify your character.
35:16I thought you were incredible.
35:17Thank you so much.
35:18It looked like something you'd been performing for years.
35:21And especially when you would shift tones.
35:23You owned that understated moment, which made everything else really pop.
35:28Thank you so much.
35:29That means a lot.
35:30Eva was perfect and good for her.
35:32I'm just going to trip her.
35:36Moving on to Sigourney Beaver.
35:39I often think of the roles that you and Cynthia had to do as actually being the most challenging.
35:46I thought you smashed it.
35:48I loved your performance.
35:49I thought that you stayed in character the whole time.
35:52It was very solid.
35:53Thanks.
35:54As far as your first look, I wasn't very surprised.
35:57I mean, at this stage of the competition, people are pulling out tricks.
36:00We're seeing things that we've never seen from them before.
36:03And that makes an impact.
36:05The silhouette of that jacket, I felt like I saw in season four, the finale.
36:09I saw the white version tonight.
36:10I saw the black version.
36:11I wasn't surprised.
36:12And I think you should think about that.
36:14Your singing voice was melodious.
36:16Very lovely to my ears.
36:17And I loved her transformation.
36:18I thought afterwards you became like this burlesque vision.
36:22The kids were out.
36:23It was like, whoa.
36:24She went from like wallflower to vixen mode, which I thought was great.
36:28Thanks.
36:29And last but not least, Cynthia Dahl.
36:31I thought out of everyone, you brought actual humor to this with the inhaler, that inhaler moment.
36:36I need that to breathe.
36:37Well, I bought it.
36:38And you did a great character voice.
36:40And the Brad wig was really fun too.
36:42Oh my God, that wig.
36:44It was campy.
36:45That wig.
36:46If someone told me that I would see you, Cynthia Dahl, in just a button-down shirt with a conservative
36:53guy's hair, I mean, that was drag for me.
36:56Okay.
36:57If she had never come out of the closet, that's what she would be today.
37:00Yes.
37:01Wow.
37:02I really like this look.
37:04It was interesting and unexpected.
37:06I definitely got the Rocky Horror homage, but it's completely different than what I could
37:11have come up with.
37:12You know, I think the role ultimately was a little quieter than everyone else's.
37:17Sometimes you did fade to the back a little bit, but I think you did a lot with a little.
37:22Okay.
37:23Perfect.
37:24Well, thank you so much.
37:25Now I have to ask what's going on with your genitals.
37:28Yeah.
37:29Is there one giant testicle?
37:30That's where I got very confused.
37:31I'm like, it's some kind of udder in my head.
37:33I am a mad scientist and I may have gotten a little too excited on exploring enhancements
37:40on my body.
37:41Okay.
37:42Yeah, yeah.
37:43Well, I love it because I think it's just so weird.
37:47It is hard to reimagine Frank and Furter because it's been done 40 million times.
37:52The little elements, the electricity.
37:54When I said Cynthia doesn't do anything half-assed, she doesn't.
37:57This is incredible.
37:58And now the hour of revelation is upon us.
38:03The velvet curtain rises, the spotlight sears, and the echoes of applause tremble through
38:08the darkness.
38:09This week's undisputed champion is...
38:19Eva Destruction.
38:22Eva, you've conquered the stage, crushed the competition, and claimed your place at the
38:26peak of our twisted spectacle.
38:29Thank you so much.
38:33I've taken the win.
38:35I won a musical challenge.
38:36I'm so proud and so happy right now.
38:39And I couldn't be more grateful for everybody else to make the challenge for what it was too.
38:45I'm not surprised that Eva won this challenge.
38:47Even when we were in the recording studio and she was so upset with her performance, I was there
38:53and I told her I reminded her that she was going to win.
38:56I knew she was going to win.
38:58I am so over this bitch.
39:00She is really just fucking eating down.
39:02And I can't even...
39:03I can't be mad about it, but I'm going to be a little bit mad about it because...
39:07Fuck!
39:08I wanted it.
39:09Oh well.
39:11And now...
39:12The true horror begins.
39:14We warned you that this competition is a shadowy stage where talent is only part of the equation.
39:19Strategy, cunning, and a devilish instinct for survival are just as important.
39:24Which is why tonight, we're handing you the poison chalice.
39:29Eva, as the winner, your prize is the one-time use of the sonic transducer.
39:34Which can be used to instantly disintegrate one of your fellow competitors.
39:40And immediately remove them from the competition.
39:46Not perfect.
39:47I have learned in the course of this Titan season to always be ready for anything.
39:52Nothing has surprised me more than this sonic transducer that will evaporate one of us immediately.
39:58She could get rid of someone like Jaharia who's done well and could be competition.
40:02She could put Cynthia out of her misery because she doesn't have a win yet.
40:06There's a million ways that this could go.
40:08I don't fucking know who's in trouble.
40:09It could be anybody at this point.
40:11With how often Eva gets in her head, she could evaporate herself.
40:14You're basically just ripping the dreams away from someone.
40:17And it's literally in your hand.
40:18It's not like a boat and then the final decision is actually belated.
40:20You're like, no, you have all the powers.
40:22What you say goes here.
40:23Wild.
40:25We're going to release you to the college room to make your decision
40:28and call you back here when the clock strikes midnight.
40:32Fun.
40:33Good luck, uglies.
40:34I am feeling incredible off this win.
40:46I feel like now comes the time where people have to plead their case to me and I'm just here to listen.
40:53I would love to hear from all of you why you think I shouldn't pick you.
40:56I would love to.
41:00Did anyone else see that coming?
41:02Kinda, a little bit.
41:03Anyway.
41:04Do I think keeping me here is the smartest move for you?
41:06Honestly, no.
41:07Because I'm going to fight every single second to make sure that I am in that finale.
41:11And after season five, I was hated or I was told my drag was shitty.
41:16And this opportunity of showcasing this new elevated version of me has meant, it has meant so fucking much.
41:23But I can't stop. I don't want to stop.
41:27That's what the water works.
41:29I did incredible in this challenge.
41:30Like, if you wouldn't have won, I know I was right on your fucking ass.
41:33I think that I have earned my spot to go to the finale.
41:36I've also been extremely loyal to you as a friend and as a sister.
41:40I think that's why I should say, I think you know what it is.
41:42Eva, I modeled my whole life around Dragula.
41:45I can't let it slip through my fingers right as I'm about to have.
41:49A moment that I've wanted since this show began.
41:52I didn't do the best today, but do I have to do an eight count to be in the finale?
41:57I'd like to see it.
41:58You've seen how hard I've worked.
42:00You've seen my growth and I want you to take that into consideration when making your choice tonight.
42:04I know it's hard, but you and I both know that there's snakes in the garden.
42:09And I think it's time to get rid of them.
42:11Why would you want to get rid of someone who doesn't have a win, Eva?
42:14Am I that much of a threat?
42:16I should stay because I'm not a threat.
42:18If you're playing the game right, send the baddest bitch home.
42:20And Abora's got two wins.
42:22Why would you be worried about me?
42:23Is this really how you want to send a girl home?
42:25I don't know. I haven't made my decision yet.
42:27I mean, there's been people calling for me to leave every single episode.
42:32You've watched everything that I've been through.
42:35Don't forget about the pact that we three made not even a whole week ago.
42:40On the car ride home from Ghost Town, the three of us, Abora and Eva and I, made a pact that all three of us wanted to be in the top together so we would help each other be there.
42:51According to Eva and Abora, it wasn't a pact.
42:54According to Eva and Abora, Sigourney just trotted up to them and said, final three.
43:01And then they said nothing.
43:03So I'm like, that's not a pact.
43:04That is you, again, thinking you know every damn thing.
43:07I see a future with you that we could have a lot of success together.
43:11So do you want me as a friend or do you want me as an enemy?
43:14Oh.
43:15I have her as an enemy. It's not so bad, Eva.
43:17That's not pleading your case. That's gaslighting her and guilting her into making any other decision.
43:22That's not a friend. That is not a great person.
43:25Hidden underlying threats and intimidation? Like, I don't appreciate that at all.
43:32Sigourney, if there's something that I learned, especially from other people in this competition, I don't do well with emotional manipulation like that.
43:40And I don't appreciate it.
43:41And that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm pleading my case to you.
43:43Even though my first decision wasn't personal, it still came with these layers of, are you sure you want to do that?
43:50Are you sure you want to do that? After everything that we've been through, everything that we've talked about?
43:55I did not come in here to make my initial decision just yet because there's a lot of other things to consider.
44:00Right, but your spot is not on the line here. Mine is.
44:05Alright, so...
44:06I've had someone trying to come for me to send me home every single episode.
44:09And that is your experience. And I have not enjoyed watching that, Sigourney.
44:13But at the end of the day, things like this remind me of the fact that we are still in a motherfucking game.
44:18Sure. And things have to be done.
44:20Don't you want to have good competition?
44:23Are you saying that we're not going to be good competition?
44:26That's not saying anything about anyone else.
44:28I think that's exactly what it was, truthfully. And that's a hell of a way to sell yourself.
44:32Sigourney's pleading her case in the worst way possible. You're not making any facts. You're not making it look good for yourself, bitch.
44:40You're not making it look good for yourself, bitch.
44:42In this room, one person has been to a finale.
44:45Yeah.
44:46Who's that?
44:47Sigourney.
44:48Sigourney's the only person in the room who has actually been to a finale. We're talking competition.
44:52You already said her name once. Say it again. Say it again.
44:55To quote the Dudz's critiques, if you made it to another finale, do you think you have an innu to pull out something unexpected?
45:00Absolutely. One hundred and one percent.
45:03It's too late. Like, you gotta, like, show it now.
45:06Eva, I have been fighting to be where I am my entire career. I have gotten to where I am today off of so many people telling me no and that I'm not good enough and that what I do doesn't matter. I have worked very, very hard for a very long time to be here.
45:25I think we could all say that.
45:27Yeah.
45:28Sure. We could all say that. But none of you have the same experience that I have had.
45:31You haven't had the same experiences that we had either.
45:33But none of you have ever been turned down from working somewhere just because of your body.
45:37I've been turned down because of the color of my skin, sweetheart. And that's not something that I can just sit here and be like, oh, I think I should stay because, like, I'm a black alternative artist. Absolutely. One hundred percent.
45:47And I think that I need to be here so that I can show that we exist in the world. But to say that I haven't had your experiences, you're right. I haven't had yours. I've had my own. And they've been, if not equally, maybe even fucking worse than your experiences in the world and in this fucking business.
46:02I want to know more of why. Less than of your experiences as an entertainer being, you know, what's the word discriminated against? Why else should you be here? What have you done?
46:10I should be here because I deserve to be here.
46:13Also, this is your time to get rid of some competition, too, Eva.
46:16Why?
46:20You and I have something together. I want to continue to have that because that means something to me because I trust you. I'm not trying to manipulate you. I'm just telling you how I feel. It's just the way it is. You know I can't come back after this. If it's now or never.
46:35I am conflicted in a few ways, but I feel like I need to really sit with my thoughts. I really need to think about this because this is unlike anything I've ever faced by myself.
46:45This is not going to be easy at all. And it's not something I'm going to necessarily enjoy.
46:49I think it's going to be Cynthia. I know that Eva and I started off in a certain way, but we've come together and we've become friends and I know that she's going to make the right choice.
46:53I want a bore to go home. That bitch has two wins. Get her the fuck out of here.
46:59I have no idea what Eva's thinking. I can't read her. I just can't lose eight years of trying and hoping in one second at the hands of my best friend's competition.
47:05Eva is a deeply emotional person, but I am surprised to see her very stoic.
47:11And almost powerful. She knows who she's going to pick, but I could not tell her. I don't know who's going home.
47:17But I think it's time that we all just hope for the best.
47:21I'm given the task to vaporize somebody and my mind is set. I'm just looking at the judges panel, ready to give my answer.
47:27Welcome back Titans.
47:29Eva, my devious friend's competition.
47:31Eva is a deeply emotional person, but I am surprised to see her very stoic and almost powerful.
47:37She knows who she's going to pick, but I could not tell her. I don't know who's going home.
47:41But I think it's time that we all just hope for the best.
47:43I'm given the task to vaporize somebody and my mind is set. I'm just looking at the judges panel, ready to give my answer.
47:53Welcome back Titans.
47:55Eva, my devious darling.
47:58The power of victory is far more than a mere title. It's a weapon.
48:03On whom will you use the power of the sonic transducer?
48:10The person that I've chosen to evaporate is...
48:25Sigourney Beaver.
48:35Do you believe that?
48:36Oh shit.
48:37Eva, you have made your decision and Sigourney Beaver has been removed from the competition and banished back into the abyss.
48:46Oh my fucking God. Eva did not. She did not just do that bitch.
48:56I mean, that's it. Her whole dream gone in a second. No goodbye. No sayonara. No last words of revenge. Just...
49:06God damn, you got nothing. No goodbye. No wave. Like they really just...
49:12Never to be seen again.
49:14Poor girl.
49:16I think she's an incredibly stunning, talented entertainer. But I also don't think she should be here anymore.
49:22This was never a personal vendetta. It just happens to look like one because I'm vaporizing her.
49:29But there's nothing attached to it other than this is a part of this game that has been made.
49:36And whatever decision that I made, somebody would have been upset. Somebody would have been hurt, betrayed.
49:43This never was supposed to be an easy prize. This was more of a curse in my opinion.
49:47Eva made an impossible decision. And in the end, I think she made the right decision. Not only for herself, but the competition as a whole.
49:54And I think Sigourney sealed her fate in the cauldron when she couldn't let down her guards and just be vulnerable. And really explain why you deserve to be here.
50:04Sleep well, Transylvanians. Because for the rest of you, the Battle of the Titans continues.
50:13Eva, you stupid bitch.
50:16Oh, you're in a, for a world of hurt. And I hate to be like, in a machine base. She's about to be wrecked. Wrecked. And I'm not gonna forget this.
50:26Blackberry and Priscilla Chambers, welcome to the Hellbound Showdown.
50:36Tonight, you will battle to return to the competition. But only one of you can survive. The other will be dragged back into darkness.
50:43And we will find out who survives right now.
50:45And we will find out who survives right now.
50:50And we will find out who survives right now.
51:00Now you can perhaps go up.
51:02Now you can have nightmares right now.
51:04Now maybe the closer you might care.
51:12Survivor, Steve will make the first check.
51:19Now…
51:20Next time with Triscuit The Rules for Attention...
52:23Blackberry.
52:30You have claimed victory and will continue to fight another day in the Hellbound Showdown.
52:36And as for you, Priscilla Chambers, your time here has ended.
52:41The shadows of the underworld await you.
52:43It's time to return to the realm of death.
52:46Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
