Messed Up Movies

Is Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma a slasher movie, an art film, a psychosexual fever dream, a two-hour therapy session about making movies... or one of the best films of 2026?
Jane Schoenbrun's follow-up to I Saw the TV Glow takes the bones of an '80s summer-camp slasher and uses them to dig into sex, death, nostalgia, identity, fandom, filmmaking and our increasingly complicated relationship with the movies that shaped us.
And blissfully, Gillian Anderson is at the center of all of it giving one of our favorite performances of the year. 
This week on Messed Up Movies, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia dig into Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, from Little Death and the movie's gloriously ridiculous kills to its obsession with horror nostalgia, Hollywood exploitation and the terrifying prospect of actually being seen for who you are. Some of us think it's one of the year's best movies. Some of us think it's a gorgeous, self-indulgent cinematic therapy session. Somehow, both might be right.
FULL SPOILERS AHEAD.

Today Griffey and Dandino return to Camp Bloodbath in The Final Girls. They cut open the movies blend of 80's sleepaway camp horror riffs and powerful emotional core, the dynamics of horror fans entering their favorite slasher flick, and if the movie would have been served better by attempting to further deconstruct the genre. This movie is so funny and had an enomrous heart that fills this comedic riff into much more than it's peers.

We thought the Insidious franchise was dead. Turns out The Further had other plans.
This week on New Movie Monday, we're diving into INSIDIOUS: OUT OF THE FURTHER, the sixth entry in a franchise that has spent years desperately trying to recapture the nightmare fuel of James Wan's original.
And somehow... this one almost pulls it off.
We're talking grotesque dental horror, nightmare pillow forts, creepy old cultists, some surprisingly effective scares, an absolutely bonkers expansion of The Further's mythology and a third act that threatens to undo almost everything the movie gets right.
Is Out of the Further actually the best Insidious sequel? Has this franchise finally found a reason to keep going? And why the FUCK is there so much horrifying dentistry in this movie?
FULL SPOILERS AHEAD.
Join Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia as they break down Insidious: Out of the Further, pick their Most Messed Up Moments and decide whether we're ready to go back into The Further one more time.
