After the runaway success of I Saw the TV Glow in 2024, director Jane Schoenbrun is back with yet another mindbending take on the media that influences us — and this time, it’s even weirder. MUBI released a new trailer for Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, which takes all of your favorite slasher tropes and flips them on their (severed) heads.
Written and directed by Schoenbrun, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma stars Gillian Anderson and Hannah Einbinder, along with Jack Haven, Zach Cherry, Sarah Sherman, Eva Victor, and Jasmin Savoy Brown. The film’s synopsis is as follows:
Set at a summer camp unraveling under increasingly bizarre circumstances, the film follows a queer filmmaker attempting to resurrect a fading horror franchise from a bygone era, determined to enlist its original final girl in a last attempt at revival. As the boundaries between fiction and reality begin to dissolve, the filmmaker and her star spiral into a psychosexual frenzy, while characters from the original Camp Miasma meet their fates at the hands of a new slasher.
Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma had its premiere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, making it Schoenbrun's third feature film after I Saw the TV Glow and We’re All Going to the World’s Fair. The film is one of two projects the director has coming this year, alongside the horror novel Public Access Afterworld, which hits shelves in October.
If you can’t wait until August to see the new film, though, you might be able to catch it early. MUBI is taking Teenage Sex and Death on tour this summer ahead of the film’s wide release, so if you’re in New York, Massachusetts, Montreal, or Oregon, you might be in luck.
Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma premieres on August 7.
