Starrbooty
RuPaul has a ball in this kitsch blaxploitation spoof.Starrbooty, top government agent and supermodel, is in the middle of a huge Karate fight when she receives the call to her latest mission. Her task: to uncover the disappearance of a number of prostitutes. With not too much difficulty Starrbooty and her fellow agent Page Turner go under-cover as hookers themselves to find out what's going down. They discover that sworn enemy Annaka Manners is kidnapping prostitutes and selling their organs, limbs and all, to the highest bidder. Can Starrbooty save the day? Is there a chance we can see her do a karate shoot out on the roof in stretch tights and high heels? You bet!
Paying homage to blaxploitation movies and spoof flicks such as The Naked Gun, RuPaul's 90s low budget super heroine comes of age at last. Fast paced, subversive and in yer face it's hilarious to see the Big Ru having fun, and you just want to have fun along with her.
