AceShowbiz - Director Jane Schoenbrun has unveiled exciting news regarding the original score for their highly anticipated third feature, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma. The film will feature a unique sonic landscape crafted by acclaimed singer-songwriter Alex G and Paul Buchanan, the revered frontman of The Blue Nile. This collaboration promises to bring a distinctive blend of indie sensibility and atmospheric depth to Schoenbrun's latest cinematic venture, which is already generating significant buzz.
This marks a continued partnership between Alex G and Schoenbrun, as the artist previously lent his scoring talents to their critically acclaimed first two films, We’re All Going to the World’s Fair and I Saw the TV Glow. For Buchanan, known for his work with The Blue Nile, this project is a notable return to scoring, having maintained a relatively low profile since his 2012 solo album, Mid Air, aside from a co-writing credit on a 2017 Jessie Ware track. His involvement is particularly exciting for fans of his distinctive, melancholic sound.
Starring Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma delves into a compelling narrative. The story follows a young director entrusted with overseeing the newest installment of a fictional slasher franchise. However, when this director meets the original film’s star, the plot takes a dark turn. Schoenbrun teases that “the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium,” suggesting a genre-bending experience that transcends typical horror tropes.
In a recent interview, Schoenbrun articulated the inspiration behind Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, stating, “I make movies I wish existed when I was a kid.” They describe the film as their “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.” This vision, paired with the distinctive scoring duo, sets the stage for a truly memorable cinematic event. Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma is slated to hit theaters on August 7.
