You can go watch it for Megan Fox and Diablo Cody fresh off her Oscar nomination and the film is pretty alright to be fair. It is better than most films of this genre. Just don't go in expecting too much. (Megan shines)

Seriously.In her early 20s, Fox at that time was one of the most beautiful women in the world with potentially a heck of a film career ahead. In the first Transformers film, she had, by merely bending over a car engine, given hundreds of thousands of teenage boys worldwide a reason to live. But what next? You have to figure that the actress and her agent were waiting for the perfect script, and what could be more perfect than a horror/teen project from Oscar winner Diablo Cody? With hindsight, we now see JB as a film with a script that goes nowhere, a constant refusal to engage the audience on any level, and, oh yeah, since this is an official review, the worst role of JK Simmons' career. Which is strange sort of achievement.The only one who survives this travesty is Amanda Seyfried, who essentially functions as "the glue" and tries to keep the viewer interested mainly by leveraging off her own high level of "perplexity." Fox, as we all know, ended up doing mainly TV after this. Pity.

Jennifer's Body (2009): Dir: Karyn Kusama / Cast: Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Johnny Simmons, J.K. Simmons, Amy Sedaris: Here is an interesting take on vampires that may remind viewers on the puberty reference in the werewolf film Ginger Snaps. Title regards infatuation as well as the male student body in which Jennifer feeds upon. She is a cheerleader who was a sacrifice to Satan by a struggling rock band. When she resurfaces she has vampire powers and feeds on the blood of males in order to retain her youth. Well written although third act is the standard face off. Directed by Karyn Kusama with ominous production visuals. Megan Fox is enchanting as Jennifer going from seductive cheerleader to vicious vampire. Amanda Seyfried plays her long time best friend who loses Jennifer at a concert only to have her resurface drenched in blood. She plays a great counterpart to Fox since both have very different backgrounds in film. We can expect a cat fight between the two as well as revenge on the cult band. Johnny Simmons plays Seyfried's boyfriend who becomes a target for Jennifer until Seyfried cuts in. Unfortunately this subplot ends on a sour note. Only J.K. Simmons as a professor is underused, which is unfortunate since he has been known as a scene stealer in past movies. Graphic and steamy horror entertainment recommended to vampire fans. Score: 5 ½ / 10

Jennifer's body is one of those movies that you probably will either love or hate. I on the other hand prefer to love this movie.Jennifer Check is the one girl in school who is drop dead beautiful. She gets mixed up with a band called Low Shoulder and they are Satan worshipers. They offer her soul for fame and fortune but it ends up turning her into a succubus. Her best friend Needy is the one to realize something is wrong and decides to stop her.Adam Brody who plays Nikolai, the lead singer of Low Shoulder is a great casting choice. Know for being the hilarious Seth in the O.C, he does good at still being comedic yet a dangerous killer. Megan Fox who in real life is drop dead beautiful plays a very good female killer. Amanda S. as well has a great talent.
