Beauty Queen Butcher is a wild blend of comedy, horror, and thriller that really leans into its offbeat premise. The film follows Phyllis Loden, a nerdy misfit played with a kind of endearing awkwardness that makes you root for her despite the absurdity. Muffy Fairlane, the popular girl, has this almost twisted sense of camaraderie that leads to some darkly funny moments as she decides to support Phyllis in the beauty pageant. The pacing is a bit uneven, with some slow spots that give way to unexpectedly gruesome practical effects later on. It’s got this campy vibe that makes it distinctive – like a tongue-in-cheek nod to both slasher tropes and beauty standards. Definitely a curious piece in the collector’s realm.
