Gillian Anderson & Hannah Einbinder Unleash Terror in ‘Camp Miasma’ Reboot

Prepare your insect repellent and torches, horror enthusiasts, as writer and director Jane Schoenbrun is transporting us back to the summer camp setting. The acclaimed director of “I Saw the TV Glow” is stepping into the void left by the absence of summer camp slashers, such as the timeless and emblematic “Friday the 13th”. When “I Saw the TV Glow” was released in 2024, it undeniably shaped the trajectory of modern horror movies, earning accolades from film greats like Martin Scorsese. Consequently, Schoenbrun is now ready to take a significant meta leap with Gillian Anderson and Hannah Einbinder in the upcoming film “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma“.

In the upcoming movie production, it is MUBI who takes charge, not only producing but also financing and distributing the film in certain regions. This streaming service/production company, known for its chilling productions such as “The Substance” and “The Babadook”, has now attracted stars like Einbinder from “Hacks” and Anderson from “The X-Files”. This summer, they will be filming an unconventional slasher in British Columbia. With the cast experiencing a genuine summer camp atmosphere, it is produced under MUBI’s skillful guidance along with Jane Schoenbrun’s innovative vision. Additionally, Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment will join in the production of this movie centered around a director tasked with revamping the “Camp Miasma” horror franchise.

Schoenbrun is stepping into the classic vibe with renewed esteem. The specific roles of Einbinder and Anderson in this project are yet undefined, but their presence certainly heightens the curiosity surrounding Schroenbrun’s latest venture. With Anderson linked to Ryan Coogler’s reboot of The X-Files, and the ongoing success of Season 4 of Hacks, these two actresses are adding significant stardom to this captivating film. The plot is rumored to revolve around the director of the recent Camp Miasma movie, who develops an obsession with the enigmatic, secluded “final girl” actress from the original film. This adds a fresh dimension of slasher genre to the summer camp setting.

Heading Into Summer, Schroenbrun Has Horror Fans on the Edge of Their Seats

As a movie enthusiast, I eagerly anticipate Jane Schroenburn’s latest offering in the horror genre: “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma.” While it may differ significantly from her previous work, “I Saw the TV Glow,” the combination of Anderson’s talent and Einbinder’s humor promises a production that will undoubtedly captivate fans.

I can’t wait to see Jane Schroenburn’s new horror movie, “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma.” Although it might be very different from her last film, “I Saw the TV Glow,” the mix of Anderson’s skills and Einbinder’s humor should make this a must-watch for fans.

In a recent statement, Schroenbrun expressed their excitement on returning to summer camp:

I’m creating films that I longed for as a child, with “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma” being my take on the ‘sleepover classic:’ a wild yet comforting midnight adventure that invites viewers from the horror section of the local video store. I can hardly contain my enthusiasm for going to summer camp this year, accompanied by the witty Hannah Einbinder, the iconic Gillian Anderson, and the bold crew at MUBI and Plan B, who have given us the go-ahead for this movie. With their approval, a torrent of blood, gore, and other liquids has been unleashed upon us all!
