After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director (Hannah Einbinder, Hacks) for resurrection. But when she visits the original movie's star (Gillian Anderson, The X-Files), a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.

A bloody valentine to slasher horror that celebrates personal self-discovery as much as it does the possibilities of cinema, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma combines killer style with a big, still-beating heart.

Wendy Ide Observer (UK) 7h
The meta mayhem of its final 30 minutes is all about subverting trans horror tropes and taking ownership of queer identities in genre cinema. And it’s also a sly acknowledgement that guilty pleasures are sometimes the purest pleasures of all. Go to Full Review
Kevin Maher The Times (UK) 3d
4/5
There is lots of deadpan humour and even more film studies. At times, especially in the busy third act, the film veers close to pseudo-scholarly sermonising. Go to Full Review
Danny Leigh Financial Times 5d
5/5
Schoenbrun has followed [I Saw the TV Glow] with a film that, for all the similarities, is really a slice of triumphant feel-good. Go to Full Review

Traditional slasher fans might not buy in, but [Camp Miasma] is provocative and playful. It's a midnight-movie that feels irreplaceable. Go to Full Review
Marlon Wallace The M Report (WBOC.com) 7h
Schoenbrun's previous two features were arguably about identity and mental health. This film could be deemed self-same, but there is a focus on sexual expression and particularly sexual satisfaction. Go to Full Review

4.5/5
Funny, touching and freeing, Camp Miasma might just be director Jane Schoenbrun's magnum opus. Go to Full Review

DARREN A 2h I loved the camp, the transitions and the story, just a great film. See more russell g 11h Stylish and entertaining See more Kristen M 15h This is a misogynistic, male rape fetish movie. There is no story, dumb dialog, and man-splaining galore. My trans daughter hated this movie and we both felt insulted by it's depiction of women, 70's horror, and sexuality. There is a lot of symbolism that you'll have to Google to understand. If you want to watch it, I recommend waiting for it to stream. See more Alex 22h Pretty good low budget horror movie with a unique story See more taryal 23h Absolute shit bro, obsession better See more Matt P 1d A fun ode to and subversion of the slasher genre. It also happens to be a beautiful romance. See more Read all reviews
