Hush Up, Sweet Charlotte is a side splitting parody of the original book and cult film Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte which starred Bette Davis and Olivian DeHavilland. This larger-than-life production stars the biggest (literally) drag personalities working today -- Mathew Martin and Varla Jean Merman (aka Jeffery Roberson).

The time is 1927 abd Charlotte Hollis is a young woman having the time of her life at a party thrown by her father, rich plantation ownder Big Sam. Charlotte's happiness is cut short when she is rejected by lover John, who shortly thereafter finds himself without a head, a hand, or a life. Moving to the present day, we find Charlotte aged, crazed, and shunned by the locals who think she murdered her lover those many years earlier. Charlotte's disheveled maid, Velma, is her sole companion...at least until cousin Miriam shows up to "help" with things. Cousin Miriam fails to offer any assistance other than bringing the family physician to have her troubled relative committed. As the nightmares of her fiance continue to haunt her, Charlotte ends up fighting not only for the Hollis esate, but for her sanity and for top billing as well.
