Jane Schoenbrun’s recently announced third feature, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, will include an original score by Alex G and the Blue Nile’s Paul Buchanan, the director has revealed.
Camp Miasma is the third collaboration between Alex G and Schoenbrun; the singer-songwriter scored their first two films, We’re All Going to the World’s Fair and I Saw the TV Glow. As for Buchanan, outside of co-writing a 2017 Jessie Ware track, the Blue Nile singer has been relatively quiet since the release of his 2012 solo album, Mid Air.
Starring Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, Camp Miasma follows a young director tasked with handling the latest chapter of a fictional slasher franchise. But when they go to meet the star of the original movie, “the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.”
In a recent interview, Schoenbrun said, “I make movies I wish existed when I was a kid and Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma is my best attempt at the ‘sleepover classic’: an insane yet cozy midnight odyssey that beckons to unsuspecting viewers from the horror section at the local video store.” Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma hits theaters August 7.
