Jennifer’s Body
Jennifer Check (Megan Fox), cheerleader, and the most popular girl in at a small town High school seems like the typical pretty girl who knows how to work the system. Jennifer’s friend Needy Lesnicky (Amanda Seyfried) is the opposite, homely, polite, and often overlooked. After a bizarre encounter with a sinister indie band at a local bar, Needy begins to suspect a change in Jennifer but can’t quite place it. Eventually it becomes apparent Jennifer is possessed by a demon capable of supernatural powers preying on the living, raising the literal question, “who will survive High School?” 
Written with all the wit and cynicism that audiences have come to adore from Diablo Cody, this black humored slasher film makes a fair attempt to entertain. Sadly, the attempts to be scary often fall flat and the attempts at humor don’t exactly bust a gut as much as one would hope. In many cases the exposition also feels forced and just feels cheap. Higher production value makes this film feel a little more important, but mainly feels just kind of…meh…Maybe a matinee, Jennifer’s Body is rated R.
