Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma
A slasher revival becomes an affair with cinema itself.
A young filmmaker hired to revive a disreputable slasher franchise seeks out its reclusive original star, and their meeting opens a blood-soaked passage through desire, memory and the movies that formed them.
