Red Lipstick

About This Movie

So, 'Red Lipstick' is this quirky 2000 heist flick that really captures that campy, over-the-top vibe reminiscent of both The Monkees and the 60s Batman. You’ve got these drag queens, Hedda Lettuce and Miss Understood, who are just phenomenal—think fabulous wigs and over-exaggerated performances that scream low-budget charm. The pacing is all over the place, but it adds to the fun, right? It's like a wild ride through a colorful underbelly of New York, blending laughs with a touch of absurdity. It’s the kind of film that makes you appreciate the DIY spirit of indie cinema while laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of it all.

Finding 'Red Lipstick' on physical media can be a bit of a treasure hunt. It had a limited release, and as a result, copies are becoming increasingly rare, especially the DVD editions. There's some interest from collectors due to its unique blend of camp and drag culture, making it a curious piece for those who appreciate offbeat cinema. Keep an eye out for any festival screenings or fan events, as they sometimes pull out this gem from obscurity.
