‘Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma’ Rated R for “Bloody Violence, Gore, and Graphic Nudity”!
MUBI is going full-blown ’80s horror with Jane Schoenbrun’s slasher homage, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, which has officially been rated R by the MPA for “bloody violence, gore, sexual content, graphic nudity, drug use and some language.”
Described as “Portrait of a Lady on Fire set in a Friday the 13th sequel,” the film is said to be set in a “blood-soaked world of desire.”
In the film, “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 movie’s star, a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.”
Hannah Einbinder (“Hacks”) and Gillian Anderson (“The X-Files”) star with Jack Haven (I Saw the TV Glow) as Little Death.
Also starring are Amanda Fix (Lowlifes), Arthur Conti (Beetlejuice Beetlejuice), Eva Victor (Sorry Baby), Zach Cherry (“Severance”), Sarah Sherman (“Saturday Night Live”), Patrick Fischler (“Twin Peaks”), Dylan Baker (Trick ‘r Treat), Jasmin Savoy Brown (Scream), Kevin McDonald (“The Kids in the Hall”), and Quintessa Swindell (Black Adam).
The trailer is a fever dream of genre trope iconography, sticky erotic metaphorical imagery, literal fountains of blood, and Schoenbrun’s now-staple liminal sensibilities. It’s a spooky cornucopia of weird queerness, and it’s got us fully hyped for the director’s third film, which looks like it’ll be their most directly horror-inspired outing to date.
“Experience a new kind of horror remake” when Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma hits theaters on August 7 via Mubi.
