Jennifer's Body | comment |
Jennifer's Body is a 2009 Teen Horror Comedy film directed by Karyn Kusama, written by Diablo Cody (Juno), and starring Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried.Jennifer (Fox) is a high school cheerleader who goes to a rock concert, where the band tries to sacrifice her to Satan to get a record deal. It works, but Jennifer gets possessed by a demon in the process, causing her to start seducing, killing, and eating the boys in her school. Upon finding out, Needy (Seyfried), Jennifer's Hollywood Homely Best Friend since childhood, sets out to stop her from wiping out the student body.The name of the film was taken from the song "Jennifer's Body" by Hole. Oddly, the song doesn't appear in the film, although another track from the same album does. | |

Psychosexual Horror | |
Jennifer's Body / int_1073963d | comment |
Psychosexual Horror: The story centers around Jennifer, a sexually confident teenager who is possessed by a succubus who seduces men so she can eat them. There are several implications that one of the themes in the story is how Jennifer is actually deeply insecure about being treated as a sex object and that she is dealing with her own attraction to her best friend Anita "Needy" Lesnicki. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Jennifer's Body / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Jennifer's abduction by Low Shoulder has some extremely rapey overtones. They take advantage of her shock at the bar burning down to ply her with drink, bundle her into their van, and drive off into the woods. During the journey, a terrified Jennifer even outright asks if they're rapists, and doesn't get a straight answer. Afterwards, her behavior is noticeably different, with inappropriate emotional outbursts (in this case, demonic possession, but this is also a sign of trauma). Needy must then watch everyone venerate and adore the men she knows did something horrible to her friend. Later on Jennifer recounts what happened to Needy, how they tied her down helplessly as she'd very obviously feared they'd rape her. It turns out they had even worse in store though. | |

Black Comedy: Jennifer asking Needy for a tampon, to plug her gaping stomach wound. Jonas' grief-stricken father loudly declaring that he's going to find his son's killer, chop off his balls, and use them as a door knocker. When Needy and Chip have sex for the first time, the former starts sensing Jennifer's murder of Colin and freaks out appropriately. Chip, on the other hand, mistakes her terrified gasps for pleasurable ones and looks highly pleased with himself. Jennifer's reaction when Needy stabs her through the heart? "My tit!"

Lipstick Lesbian: Jennifer, who seems to be a lipstick bisexual, has long hair, wears feminine clothing (including very short skirts) at all times, having sex with a lot of men. She also seems very into her female best friend Needy. Actress Megan Fox says she played her as a very closeted lesbian. Needy, conversely, has a boyfriend who she seems into but also appears to find Jennifer attractive. She dresses more frumpily, but in a likewise feminine way, and thus may also be a lipstick bisexual. | |

Bait-and-Switch Lesbians | |
Jennifer's Body / int_34f9fe21 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Lesbians: The earliest trailers showed Jennifer and Needy in intimate situations, and despite their making out in the movie, both are only seen and mentioned as being with boys. However, there is enough tension between them in the film to reasonably assume the two girls were bisexual. The argument could even be made for Jennifer being a closeted lesbian since all of her male interests were either the result of jockeying for social position or trying to keep Needy for herself. After a scene of Needy gazing a little too blissfully at Jennifer, another girl says to her point-blank: "You are totally LesbiGay." Megan Fox even says she played Jennifer as a very closeted lesbian. Needy also may be at least bisexual, since she's very into kissing Jennifer. Still, this bit only makes up a small part of the film, and it goes no further. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
Jennifer's Body / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Needy's ultimate fate. She doesn't get away with killing Jennifer nor achieves a victory of any kind, nor is she hailed a hero. She's put in a prison psych ward, likely to spend there rest of her days there, and probably only avoided general population due to her absolute conviction she was fighting against a succubus and the fact she's still a minor, which surely got her deemed psychotic. On top of that, all the trauma and suffering she went through the movie turns her into a bitter, cynical person with a particularly bleak stance on life and fellow humans who beats up orderlies regularly, then violently murders several men (who all definitely had it coming, but still). At the end she's free, but will likely have to remain as a fugitive for the rest of her life. | |

Jennifer's Body / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Jennifer and Chip are killed, and Needy gets put in a prison psych ward. Needy does gain some of Jennifer's powers (Super-Strength and levitation, at the least) and proceeds to escape and murder all of Low Shoulder, but she's still a fugitive and a pariah with no income or support network. | |

Our Demons Are Different: These possess non-virgins sacrificed in Satanic rituals, and give their hosts superhuman abilities in exchange for feeding roughly once a month. If that feeding isn't met, they fade away and cause their hosts to wither. They can be killed via a blade to the heart, and those who survive their bites can inherit their abilities. | |

Not What It Looks Like: Played for some very dark laughs and also drama. After having a brutal fight with Jennifer and barely managing to kill her, Needy is found over the still warm body by Jennifer's mother. Needy gets incarcerated and put in a ward for the criminally insane, since obviously her claim about killing a man-eating demon isn't going to convince anyone. | |

Goths Have It Hard: Parodied. Colin is a downbeat-seeming goth who is shown to be attracted to the dark side but is actually a nice guy with a very normal life that's contrasted against Needy and Jennifer's problems. After his death, his goth friends are shown to be near-obsessed with his grave and being the center of attention. However, Colin's mom, who is genuinely devastated, calls it out for being performative and shoos them away. | |

Homoerotic Subtext | |
Jennifer's Body / int_6056f853 | comment |
Homoerotic Subtext: A fair amount between Jennifer and Needy. Their Pseudo-Romantic Friendship is established early on, with Needy staring rather wistfully at Jennifer (causing a classmate to call them "LesbiGay"), and Jennifer seeming very possessive of Needy around the latter's boyfriend. After Jennifer gets possessed, she becomes increasingly fixated on Needy and starts specifically targeting boys in whom Needy has an interest. Meanwhile, it's implied that Needy develops a Psychic Link with Jennifer as a result of some Finger-Suck Healing from when they were little; she starts seeing visions of Jennifer seducing (and then murdering) her victims. It then goes beyond subtext during their passionate make-out session, after which Jennifer claims that she and Needy often used to "play boyfriend and girlfriend" when they were younger. | |

Out-of-Character Alert: While not the nicest person before her possession, Jennifer's callous disregard for the deaths that resulted from the Melody Lane fire shocks Needy and is another tip-off that something is wrong with her friend. Jennifer's also surprised when Needy uses the f word since she usually never swears, showing just how upset Needy's gotten. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Needy overhears Low Shoulder arguing about whether Jennifer is a virgin or not. Believing them to be just your run-of-the-mill sleazy bros trying to get into a small-town girl's pants, she tells them that Jennifer is a virgin because she has taste, and therefore they have no chance. Unfortunately for everybody in this movie, they actually want something a little more esoteric. | |

Bisexual Love Triangle | |
Jennifer's Body / int_85c4ebe0 | comment |
Bisexual Love Triangle: Jennifer and Needy have always had an intense Pseudo-Romantic Friendship, which included bed sharing (and they make out at one point). Needy is also in a relationship with Chip and only shows attraction to other guys, such as Colin. While all the boys want Jennifer, her only really sincere romantic relationship is with Needy but the arc of the movie is ultimately about Needy realizing what a Toxic Friend Influence Jennifer is. Jennifer kills Chip (and Colin) because she wanted to take what Needy had, so ultimately, Needy killed Jennifer in revenge and to stop her from hurting anyone else. Nevertheless, she inherited some of Jennifer's powers and used them to avenge her at the end. | |

Jonas and Colin's parents have to deal with the fact that their sons were brutally murdered and eaten. Imagine also being Ahmet's parents. Your son goes on an exchange trip to a foreign country, only to presumably die in an out-of-control fire... except he's actually been eaten alive. | |

Foreshadowing: At the very beginning, Needy kicks an orderly at the prison psych ward with such force that she ends up flying across the table, and even knocks out one of her teeth. It later turns out that she gained some of Jennifer's demonic powers, such as Super-Strength. Needy asks the front man of Low Shoulder why they're playing all the way out in Devil's Kettle when they're from the big city and could presumably get gigs there. He fumbles the question and quickly changes the subject—because, of course, the real reason they're in town is to find a sacrificial victim. When the teacher is mentioning the victims of the Melody Lane fire, Jennifer giggles after he says the name of Ahmet, the Indian exchange student. As it turns out, Ahmet was Jennifer's first victim. | |

Motifs: A "cross" symbol shows up multiple times. There's one on the bottom of the isolation cell Needy is placed into, crossesnote In the form of the letter X, used to denote people under 21 who can't be served alcohol. For this reason, it quickly became a symbol of the Straight Edge movement. are drawn onto the hands of Melody Lane patrons, and, in the end, Needy slashes a cross shape into Jennifer's torso. This also extends to the dialogue ("Boo, cross out Needy"). | |

Soundtrack Dissonance: Tracks like Panic! at the Disco's "New Perspective" and Florence and the Machine's "A Kiss with a Fist" seem a bit light for a horror movie. Not to mention an in-movie example when Low Shoulder sings Tommy Tutone's "867-5309/Jenny" as they murder Jennifer. | |

Idealized Sex | |
Jennifer's Body / int_af3ff126 | comment |
Idealized Sex: Averted. Needy and Chip's first time having sex, while enjoyable (at first) and romantic, is appropriately awkward and low key. It also gets cut short before either can "finish" due to Needy becoming distressed and scared because she has a vision of Jennifer killing Colin. They also mention getting condoms earlier. Before starting, they're seen using one they had at the ready. | |

Ms. Fanservice: The studio built the entire marketing campaign on Megan Fox's hotness; she's often shown baring her legs, revealing cleavage, and otherwise just generally looking alluring. Despite efforts to make her look less beautiful, Amanda Seyfried's attractive even so, and it really can't be hidden. Her form is often highlighted, plus she's got a sex scene (though it's not explicit). They both get into the act with Jennifer and Needy making out in her bedroom. | |

Everyone Has Standards: Dirk from Low Shoulder is against the idea of sacrificing Jennifer to Satan.

Dirk chooses the latter option. He's still not exactly happy with it, though, and can be seen looking away as Nikolai stabs Jennifer. | |

Fan Disservice: Yes, it is Megan Fox, but it is somewhat challenging to find Jennifer sexy when she's covered in blood, has a mouthful of sharp piranha teeth, and is acting creepy as hell. Not to mention the way her cheeks split open when she feeds. Chip and Needy's sex scene starts erotic. Then it turns nightmarish and awkward very quickly as Needy begins hallucinating blood dripping down the walls, Colin's death, Jonas' corpse, and a demonic-looking Jennifer watching her and Chip mistaking her gasps of panic for pleasure. | |

Also, Needy is the only one who knows that Low Shoulder aren't the heroes everyone else thinks they are. No one believes her when she states otherwise, presumably because that's part of Low Shoulder's Deal with the Devil, or they'd just garnered a good reputation by (allegedly) saving people from the fire. | |

Jennifer's Body / int_e11e88b6 | comment |
Thousand-Yard Stare: After Chip dies in her arms, Needy returns home, lies on her bed, and just stares into space. She later has another, smaller one after she kills Jennifer and the latter's mother walks in. Jonas's mother takes to staring blankly out of her window after her son is murdered. | |

Hollywood Satanism | |
Jennifer's Body / int_e390612a | comment |
Hollywood Satanism: Low Shoulder is this trope with their Satanic Bibles. They end up kidnapping and murdering Jennifer; they are an indie/rock band (so not the heavy metal usually associated with this trope), which indicates that the trope is deliberately invoked. | |

Shoulders-Up Nudity | |
Jennifer's Body / int_e4d4633a | comment |
Shoulders-Up Nudity When Jennifer takes off her shirt to seduce Jonas, the camera doesn't pan below her shoulders, except for a brief Godiva Hair shot. When Jennifer emerges from the lake and walks up to her clothes naked, the camera either stays above her collarbone or focuses on her bare feet and legs. Similarly, when Needy is having sex with Chip, the camera stays above her breasts in the moments when she's not covered by him or something else. | |

Hate Sink | |
Jennifer's Body / int_e5fd8bc2 | comment |
Hate Sink: Nikolai Wolf, lead singer of Low Shoulder, is the only character with no redeeming qualities. At first he appears to be a standard Jerkass rock star, making misogynistic comments and seemingly creeping on Jennifer, who's a minor. Then, it's revealed that he's a Satanist plotting to sacrifice her for fame. After it's strongly implied he supernaturally started a fire that kills dozens, he gleefully kills Jennifer. Moreso, he exploits the aforementioned fire to make his band look good, falsely claiming to have saved people from the flames. | |

Emo Teen: Colin is a pretty classic example, with short spiky dyed black hair, eye shadow, and piercings. He also dresses in mostly black or dark colors. He's mentioned as having a fixation about death and similar dark subjects; Colin's even called emo. Meanwhile, his friends display the stereotypes even more heavily. | |
