Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma

Directed by Jane Schoenbrun2026Canada/UK/USA112 mins

A queer psychosexual slasher that stars Emmy-winning actors Hannah Einbinder (Hacks) and Gillian Anderson (The X-Files), Jane Schoenbrun’s latest film cements their place as one of queer and trans cinema’s most vital auteurs. In this riveting two-hander, Einbinder stars as Kris, a passionate writer who’s hired to reinvigorate their favorite horror movie franchise, Camp Miasma, after it suffers years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom. Kris travels to an abandoned summer camp to meet the now-reclusive actress, Billy (Anderson), who played the original flick’s final girl. But as the two women unravel the ways in which Camp Miasma has shaped them, they descend into a frenzied, blood-soaked world of desire, self-discovery, and delirium. Described as “an insane yet cozy midnight odyssey” by its writer-director, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma is a brilliant, funny, and poignant meta meditation on the stories that make us — on final girls and their monsters — and the process of becoming.  Featuring echoes of Mulholland Drive, standout central performances, and an impeccable cast that includes Jack Haven (I Saw the TV Glow), Jasmin Savoy Brown (Yellowjackets), Eva Victor (Sorry, Baby), and Zach Cherry (Severance), Schoenbrun’s latest is a truly singular vision.
