Sex! Death! Camp!


Can we just take a moment to appreciate how freaking hot Gillian Anderson looks in that photo? My god. Anyway that aside that there is the first image from I Saw the T.V. Glow filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun.'s next movie called Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma (another ace movie title -- go Jane) which stars Anderson alongside Hacks star Hannah Einbinder and is hitting theaters on August 7th. Here is the second first photo:

Which I am finding very funny after having just re-watched Excalibur last night. On point! It's also got a dose of Friday the 13th to it which I'd say is appropriate, given today is yes you guessed it Friday the 13th. And well I suppose also the movie is literally called Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, which tells us right up front that slasher movies are on the menu and sure enough the plot description...

"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."

I love that Jane is so commited to this queer exploration of horror themes -- I was slightly iffy on ISTTVG the first watch but I've since grown extremely fond of it. And funny enough I know someone who worked behind the scenes on this movie but I haven't been able to see them since it shot -- I will be poking and prodding for details, believe you me! Until then here's a teaser for all the vibes:
