Draghoula is a 1995 comedy horror film directed by Bashar Shbib. [1]

Contents

Plot

A tribute to the high concept trashiness of B-movies, the film centres on Harry (Chriss Lee), a scientist who is trying to locate the gene that controls guilt, but transforms into a combination vampire and drag queen after being bitten by one of his lab rats. [2]

Production

Lee, a musician with the band Talamasca, was cast in the lead role after Shbib saw his performance in a vampire-themed rock concert. [2]

Release

The film was subsequently screened on Showcase in 2001 as a Hallowe'en special. [3]
