Watch a New Clip From Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma Ahead of Its August 7 Theatrical Release

With just days to go before its theatrical release, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma has unveiled a brand-new clip, giving us another unsettling glimpse into Jane Schoenbrun’s latest genre-defying vision.

Watch the new clip below:

Written and directed by Jane Schoenbrun (I Saw the TV Glow), Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma has already become one of the year’s most anticipated horror releases after making waves on the festival circuit. The film also arrives with major recognition, having won the Queer Palm at the Cannes Film Festival, where it was celebrated for its bold, transformative approach to queer storytelling.

Set against the backdrop of a beloved slasher franchise that has long since lost its way, the film follows a young filmmaker determined to revive Camp Miasma after years of lackluster sequels and a fading fanbase. Her ambitious plans take an unexpected turn when she seeks out the original film’s now-reclusive star. Their meeting quickly spirals into a surreal and blood-soaked journey through desire, fear, and delirium, all while an ominous spear-wielding figure known only as Little Death lurks in the shadows.

The latest clip continues to tease that unique atmosphere without revealing too much, leaning into the eerie tension that has become hallmarks of Schoenbrun’s work. Rather than simply paying homage to classic slashers, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma appears interested in interrogating the genre itself, blurring the line between fandom, identity, fantasy, and horror in ways that feel unmistakably their own.

According to the official synopsis, Schoenbrun’s latest feature is “a new kind of horror remake,” one that bursts with imagination and surreal wit while embracing the idea that there is no such thing as a guilty pleasure. That philosophy feels especially fitting for a filmmaker whose work has consistently explored the complicated relationship between media, self-discovery, and queer identity. It’s also a fitting description for a film that has already resonated with audiences through its exploration of fear, desire, and the transformative power of embracing who we are.

The film stars Hannah Einbinder alongside Gillian Anderson, with Amanda Fix, Arthur Conti, Eva Victor, Zach Cherry, Sarah Sherman, Patrick Fischler, Dylan Baker, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Quintessa Swindell, Kevin McDonald, and Jack Haven rounding out the ensemble.
