Jennifer's Body

Sexy

yes thanks

Better than you would expect

Fantastic movie! Probably one of the most entertaining horror flicks of 2009. The story is simple but very well executed, the story starts with Jennifer as a normal young girl who falls in with the wrong crowd and before you know it she's a demon psycho who must seduce and kill boys to feed to stay alive!! The dialogue is very good in this movie too which is unexpected for a teen demon slasher flick, and several times is genuinely very funny. The cast is great Megan Fox is extremely sexy and plays a good seductress of evil especially the scene where she makes out with Amanda Seyfried. But aside from that good fun for male and female viewers to enjoy. The level of blood and gore is average and not too over the top it's not really what drives the film anyway. It's pleasantly a middle finger up to most films like this that never quite get the formula going! A must DVD purchase. Or a must watch at least!

Nonsense.

ok

After a drastic fire in the local bar, Jennifer (Fox) acts strangely and best friend Needy (Seyfried) becomes suspicious when her male classmates start disappearing.Do you remember the Shining? Or perhaps any other horror in the 70's or 80's? Those were the days when films were broadcast across the world with the ability to entice audience's with the idea of a plot, and more so than the main stars.In a world where everyone watches a Twilight film for Rob Pattinson instead of wanting to watch a film about conditional love we are left with the conclusion a film is only as good as its stars, which this picture is most certainly.For anyone who has been living under the biggest rock in the world over the last three years we have a new eye candy in Megan Fox. After glorified action man Michael Bay shot her looking under her car bonnet she has been hot property and what better way to market a film than promoting the world's hottest woman licking her lips and wearing little swimming in a lake? If you like the Fox in an attractive sense be prepared to have your mind warped.Scripted by Juno writer Diablo Cody this teenage romp of demons mixed with high school hits all the right buttons for any horny male teen as Jennifer pounces around giving the camera lustful stares, snogging anyone in the vicinity (male or female) and wearing an array of provocative attire. Fox has certainly shone in the films she has been in thus far, particularly How to lose friends and alienate people where her drug taking celebrity was a classic stereotype of modern celebrity. Here we see her balancing drama and horror in a fine way that allows us to see past the sexiness and bring out her undertones. But if anything this script holds her back.One of the main reasons Juno succeeded at the Oscars and winning fans was because of the ability to take a stereotype and carve a personality out of it through an unexpected pregnancy. This however has some of the most ridiculous character development of any film all year.Needy (brilliant name) can't decide if she loves Jennifer or hates her. The opening in the prison is almost a contradictory to her flashback when she's lying on Jen's bed with tears in her eyes. The narration she offers spells out rules and supposed meanings that in truth are completely irrelevant. The fact that Needy amongst other high school residents use this ridiculous never used slang make this difficult to interpret for anyone over the age of sixteen.The direction is well established through gazes into the camera and action fights but ultimately this is a market for a certain Fox that has minimal scares and whilst there are moments of clever dialogue, this is a loud and stereotypical teenage horror.5/10

"Jennifer's Body" is essentially a teen horror film aimed at teenage viewers, mostly girls I would suspect.As horror films go, it certainly wasn't one of the worst that I have seen; that dubious honour falls to the likes of "The Cave", "Creep" and "The Descent". The film tells the tale of two young female best friends.The better looking one,Jennifer, is last seen disappearing into a rock group's van after a club burns down following a gig, only to reappear later that night to her best friend covered in blood and vomiting black slime. What could have happened to her in that van ? A series of killings ensue and Jennifer becomes progressively more cold and nasty. Her best friend tries to get to the bottom of these happenings and in so doing finds out the terrible truth about "that night". The acting in the film is decent enough and there is enough suspense to keep the viewer watching right through to the dramatic finale, however it fails to reach the standard of the two best "horror" films I have seen this year; "Drag Me To Hell" and "Let The Right One In".
