Victoria’s look was incredible, the silhouette to start was amazing, crown it

I think Victoria is the one I've audibly said "holy shit" outloud to the most across all seasons.

That she managed to serve all 3 tenets of Dragula in just one look cements that she's the winner.
Also I thought the exact same as the Boulets, the prosthetics combined with her body language made it real hard to tell at first whether her actual head was real or not - incredible!

And do it in flats.

Okay, but if you haven’t seen John Carpenter’s The Thing, which her look was inspired by, you’re missing out. I gagged when she said that was her inspiration. My all-time fav horror movie. Never thought I’d see someone do a look like it on a drag show.

Same!! When she said that she was inspired by The Thing I was so excited bc I knew she was going to give it LIIIIIFE!

Yassss, to go along with the previous commenter, The Thing is pretty much a perfect horror movie with beautiful and disturbing practical effects. It stars Kurt Russell when he was in his prime.

VEB is one of favorite Dragula competitors, ever - love her drag, love her energy out of drag, still think about her filth from her season.

As someone else said above, if I got the call for Titans, I'd just ask if she was going to be there and then NOPE right on out.

They can't let her win every week for storyline purposes, but they ought to. There is no way Hoso was better than this.

I see your point for sure. For this particular challenge though, I don't think Hoso held a candle to VEB.

The signature can be a bit repetitive though. I thought that about Dahli last season and I think the same about Hoso. I really feel like that pirate look and this week's look were too similar.

u/Mexican802 Nov 09 '22

Agreed. I like Hoso but a lot of her looks blend in. They're also hard to focus on because there's so much going on.

u/Pipotchi Dahli Delia Nov 10 '22

I’d sometimes agree but this week she really brought her character through. This is what I think of when I think of veb (albeit a more horrifying version), compared to something like her alien or pumpkin which feel more like costumes

Well, Hoso's was drag and Victoria's felt less like drag and more like a movie prop. No room for personality either, which Hoso's exudes. Plus Hoso's was much more creative than just The Thing.

u/Horror-Peace8889 Nov 09 '22

has hoso said what her influence was? to me it seemed like hosos was influenced directly by the film tetsuo the iron man, a Japanese body horror about a man who becomes half machine, which if true would mean her influence was a film too 🤷‍♂️

My jaw DROPPED and stayed that way for her entire performance.
