Global distributor MUBI has officially unveiled the highly anticipated trailer for writer-director Jane Schoenbrun’s latest cinematic effort, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma.

The project promises a highly stylized, meta-cinematic exploration of the horror genre, focusing on the legacy of a fictional slasher series. According to the official synopsis provided by the studio:
“After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director for resurrection. But when she visits the original’s star, a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.”
A Diverse and Star-Studded Ensemble
Schoenbrun, known for crafting deeply atmospheric and identity-focused narratives, has assembled an eclectic and high-profile cast for this production. Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma features prominent performances from Hannah Einbinder (Hacks) and Emmy-winner Gillian Anderson (The X-Files). They are supported by a robust ensemble that includes Amanda Fix, Arthur Conti, Eva Victor, Zach Cherry, Sarah Sherman, Patrick Fischler, Dylan Baker, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Quintessa Swindell, Kevin McDonald, and Jack Haven. This intersection of dramatic, comedic, and horror talent underscores the film’s ambitious narrative tone.
