The photo of Megan Fox as a possessed, boy-eating high school student in Diablo Cody -penned, Karyn Kusama-directed “Jennifer’s Body” is old news, but today we get real stills (ok, magazine scans of stills) from the black comedy teen horror flick via Empire Magazine (and Filmschoolrejects), and it’s clear they didn’t scrimp on the budget for corn syrup.
The four new images include Fox in her flag team uniform (going directly into the spank banks of 14-year old boys everywhere), Fox and co-star Amanda Seyfried (as her nerdy best friend) in class, Seyfried looking worse for the wear in some prom gear, and a creepy-looking Fox completely drenched in bloody gore. How do ya like your Transformers princess now, nerds?
Cody says about her first foray into horror, “So what’s scary? Teenage girls. Terrifying. I just thought about the most aggressive female bullies I had known in life… and imagined them as literal monsters.”
We’ve read the script and liked it’s wickedly wry tone, and it’s made our list of most anticipated 2009 flicks, though right now there’s some concern that director Karyn Kusama (“The L Word,” “Aeon Flux,” “Girlfight”) missed the mark in her execution of the quirky horror comedy script (though the source is from an AICN test screening, so take that as you will, i.e. with a grain of salt).
“Jennifer’s Body” hits theaters on September 18th and stars Fox, Seyfried, and Adam Brody as the lead singer of a Satan worshipping emo-douche band that gets Fox’s Jennifer into this whole cannibalism mess.
