The Boulet Brothers' Dragula

The Boulet Brothers' Dragula: Titans is an American reality competition spin off edition of the original series of the same name, which is produced by the Boulet Brothers, for Shudder. [1]

Contents

The show documents past queens from the original series returning to compete at the invitation of the Boulet Brothers. As in the original series, the Boulet Brothers plays the role of hosts, mentors, and head judges and contestants are given different challenges each week. The Boulet Brothers' Dragula: Titans employs a panel of several guest judges who, along with the hosts, critique contestants' progress throughout the competition. The winner of each season is awarded a cash prize and the title of Queen of the Underworld, formerly known as The World's Next Drag Supermonster. [2]

The series was announced on September 12, 2022, and the cast for the first season was revealed on September 26, featuring 10 contestants returning from the first four seasons of Dragula. [1] [3] The series premiered on October 25, 2022. [1] A second season is set to premiere on October 7, 2025. [2]

Format

For the most part, the format of Titans resembles that of the main series each episode opens with a scripted scene starring the Boulet Brothers that introduces the episode's theme and challenge which determines who is eligible for elimination). However, each cast is composed of former contestants and the format for the competition is altered.

Each episode opens with a scripted scene starring the Boulet Brothers that introduces the episode's theme and challenge. [4] The rest of the episode is filmed in a reality TV documentary format. Each episode will open with a fright feat (mini challenge), the winner of whom will get a reward or perk for the main challenge. If someone fails to do the extermination challenge, they are exterminated and replaced by the previously eliminated competitor.

Each episode features a main "Floor Show" where each of the competitors display their looks and performance on the main stage. The performances and looks are judged, and one competitor is chosen the winner while the two or more lowest scoring competitors are put up for "extermination". [5] Unlike the main series, rather than featuring an extermination of the bottom two to determine the eliminated contestant, the Boulets announce the bottom contestants, then send the contestants to the cauldron, to then announce the exterminated competitor.

Judges

The Boulet Brothers serve as the primary judges on the show, and are the only regular judges on the panel. [6] Each episode they are joined by a rotating cast of celebrity musicians, directors, writers and horror alumni including Cassandra Peterson, Justin Simien, Bonnie Aarons, Darren Stein, David Dastmalchian, Misha Osherovich, Poppy, Harvey Guillén, and Joe Bob Briggs. Guests judges also starred several drag performers including winners from the main series and its spin-offs, as well as those from the Drag Race franchise  such as Alaska Thunderfuck 5000, Dahli and Katya Zamolodchikova.
