Kelsi and Trey explore Jane Schoenbrun’s Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, one of their favorite and strangest movies of the year. They unpack Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, the fake slasher franchise, Hollywood’s obsession with zombie IP, Little Death, Final Girls, queer reclamation, and why Schoenbrun’s overwhelming cinematic language can be both exhilarating and deeply uncomfortable. They also discuss “Cinema Dysmorphia," an idea that movies can become so embedded in how we understand ourselves that they help us recognize something about our identity or reality while simultaneously distorting those things. In that way, Camp Miasma becomes a poisoned love letter to horror about the movies that never really leave us.
