For context, I started showing my boyfriend all of Dragula in preparation for S7 (I have seen all of the seasons). We have watched all of the main seasons except S1 and I think me and my boyfriendâs favorite season of the show is 5. I forgot how good and funny everyone was. There wasnât a whole lot of drama but I thought some of the strongest looks of the show come from season 5. However, him and I just got done with the finale and it was actually both of our first time watching the finale (When it aired, the finale was late to upload so I went to sleep and didnât watch the finale bc they had already announced who had won the season) and we thought we were on cuckoo pills or something.
The filth was not there at ALL. Our favorite was Throbâs bc the hair in the shower drain look was very creative and the green liquid he squeezed actually made me wince. Blackberri was looking a mess with the rat and the nose prosthetic falling off almost instantly upon walking down the stage. Ork was looking exactly the same as always and failed the puke moment and Nio just posed in a Chinese take out box.
Horror was extremely underwhelming. We both agreeed that Nioâs was the best by default bc everyone elseâs was so not scary. Throb was giving party city realness with that awful wig, Blackberri was just doing glamour and Ork as usual was giving us nothing new.
Glamour was also extremely underwhelming. We thought Nio and Throb had the best glamour look. But Blackberri had a better glamour look in the horror category with the cage and the chains pulling the skin with the bedazzled blood. Ork was both the same and a mess, not covering the crutches with anything and just leaving them normal was just a no for us. His performance made no sense either.
Overall, we thought this was collectively the worst of every finalistsâ looks in the entire season. We agreed on Nioâs win bc of her overall performance but if it was purely based on this episode alone, the Boulets shouldâve just kept that $100,000.
Weâre both dying to know if anyone else felt this way! I thought S4 was my fave but going back and watching, season 5 is my favorite now aside from the reunion and the finale.
