There's something about the poster for Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma -- the new movie from We're All Going To the World's Fair and I Saw the T.V. Glow director Jane Schoenbrun, and P.S. we really should be talking more about how fucking good Jane is at movie titles -- that's been bugging me since it dropped yesterday and I can't quite put my finger on it. I think I would like it more if the square image with our leading ladies in it was more rectangular and there was less empty space with the title and text in it at the bottom? You stretch the top half down so it's like 5/6ths of the full sheet and I think it's a great poster. Those blood-soaked queens should be bigger dammit! I also think the mix of fonts in the title is sloppy -- I love the Friday the 13th font being used of course, but the five words above "Camp Miasma" feel disconnected. Anyway all of this critique is said with love! I would buy this poster if it was the version I have in my head -- as is I'm not totally sold. That's only in regards to the poster though! Having seen this movie... well we'll save that opinion for another day. But yes I have already seen the movie and yes, you should be looking forward to it. It's out in theaters on August 7th (although it is playing this weekend at NewFest here in NYC and it's hitting several other fests around the country before then so keep yer eyes a'peeled) and here's the just -dropped trailer!
