Her Private Hell
After a 10-year hiatus from feature filmmaking, the acclaimed director of "Drive" and "The Neon Demon," Nicolas Winding Refn, is back with his new film, "Her Private Hell."
A mysterious mist envelops a futuristic metropolis, unleashing a deadly and elusive entity. A troubled young woman embarks on a quest to find her father, which intersects with that of an American GI who is on a harrowing journey to rescue his daughter from Hell.
Refn pays homage to classic slasher directors such as Dario Argento and Brian De Palma, while showcasing some of the year's standout performances from its lead cast. The film features Sophie Thatcher ("Heretic" and "Companion"), Charles Melton ("May December"), and Havana Rose Liu ( "Tuner" and "Bottoms").

I Want Your Sex
Gregg Araki, known for films like "Mysterious Skin" and "Nowhere," returns to direct his first full-length feature in over ten years with the boundary-pushing and irreverent film "I Want Your Sex," which was a breakout at Sundance.
“This unconventional rom-com feels like a natural extension of the queer indie pioneer’s sex-positive sensibility, even as he steers things into novel territory,” Peter Debruge wrote in Variety after the festival, highlighting the film’s screwball comedy elements.
When fresh-faced Elliot (Cooper Hoffman) lands an exciting job for renowned artist, icon and provocateur Erika Tracy (Olivia Wilde), his fantasies come true as Erika taps him to become her sexual muse. But Elliot soon finds himself out of his depth as Erika takes him on a journey more profound than he ever could have imagined, into a world of sex, obsession, power, betrayal and murder.

Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma
After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director (Hannah Einbinder) for resurrection. But when she visits the original's star (Gillian Anderson), a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.
"Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma" is director Jane Schoenbrun’s ("I Saw the TV Glow") most personal film yet—as well as perhaps their most purely enjoyable. Paying homage to disreputable genres, while imbuing its deeply interrogative nature with a sense of genuine play, Schoenbrun’s film reveals a major turning point in the career of this groundbreaking auteur.
