Summary
$251,500 from just five theaters gave Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma a strong limited debut, with a standout $50,300 per-screen average for Mubi's slasher release.
A 98% Rotten Tomatoes score and near-universal critical praise helped drive the opening, an unusually strong result for indie horror in limited release.
Jane Schoenbrun's follow-up to I Saw the TV Glow stars Hannah Einbinder and Gillian Anderson, positioning itself as a meta remake that reworks slasher conventions.
The next test is expansion: if broader audiences respond as critics have, the film could emerge as a rare original horror breakout in the coming weeks.
