Jennifer's Body Movie Synopsis

When small town high school student Jennifer (Megan Fox) is possessed by a hungry demon, she transitions from being "high school evil"—gorgeous (and doesn't she know it), stuck up and ultra-attitudinal—to the real deal: evil/evil. The glittering beauty becomes a pale and sickly creature jonesing for a meaty snack, and guys who never stood a chance with the heartless babe, take on new luster in the light of Jennifer's insatiable appetite.

Meanwhile, Jennifer's lifelong best friend Needy (Amanda Seyfried), long relegated to living in Jennifer's shadow, must step-up to protect the town's young men, including her nerdy boyfriend Chip (Johnny Simmons).

  Fox is beautiful...but the movie sucked!!

  silly...but fun

  I love this movie. It's exactly like something that I would make, were I a horror filmmaker. In fact, the story and character design of Jennifer are a little bit similar to a graphic novel that I wrote, but that is neither here nor there. Diablo Cody's dialogue is really one of a kind, and I find the characters she creates very endearing. I'd be willing to watch anything they did. The villains in this movie are at once diabolical and completely mundane, and it's kind of hard to say whether the monster-fied Jennifer is any more intimidating than the old Jennifer. Needie, while being one of the least interesting characters throughout the movie, turns into one of the most formidable Final Girls
