EXTRA CREDIT: The death of innocence! High school thrills! Sex! Boy-eating demon cheerleaders!

Details About the Film

This film is part of the series Extra Credit

Oil and water childhood bestfriends Jennifer and Needy struggle to navigate high school after Jennifer unexpectedly develops a taste for male human flesh. What follows is a subversion of coming-of-age tropes tackling girl-on-girl hatred, #MeToo politics (years before the terminology was coined), and a meta-examination of the Megan Fox mythos. Mis-marketed during its initial release as Twilight for boys, Jennifer's Body tells the story of a queer-coded succubus cheerleader who isn't just high school evil.
