“I Saw the TV Glow” writer and director Jane Schoenbrun pulled from their own obsession with the TV series “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” for their second feature, but the “We’re All Going to the World’s Fair” filmmaker told TheWrap at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival that this new film is about much more than being an obsessive fan. It’s a personal tale of their own queer experience.
The trippy original feature stars Justice Smith and Bridgette Lundy-Paine as two kids who become obsessed with a very “Buffy”-esque show, but their fandom is driven as much by their love of the show as it is their desire to escape their personal lives.
